Apple-certified Swift and SwiftUI engineers for London startups and UK enterprises. GDPR-compliant builds. GBP-denominated fixed-cost quotes. UK business hour communication. 50 to 65 percent less than London agency rates.
StudioKrew provides dedicated iOS app developers to UK businesses, working as an extension of your London team. Our Apple-certified Swift and SwiftUI engineers build native iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, tvOS, and Vision Pro apps with UK GDPR compliance built in from day one — not retrofitted. We operate on GMT-aligned schedules, quote in GBP, sign UK-standard NDAs and GDPR Data Processing Agreements before any work begins, and deliver fortnightly TestFlight builds so you see real progress every sprint.
Request ProposalStudioKrew is a trusted iOS app development partner for UK businesses. Our Apple-certified Swift developers serve clients across London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and Bristol — delivering GDPR-compliant native iOS apps at £15 to £45 per hour, compared to the £80 to £200 charged by London agencies. 400 plus apps delivered. Onboard within 72 hours of sign-off.
We build native iPhone and iPad apps in Swift and SwiftUI for UK clients — integrating UK payment gateways (Stripe UK, GoCardless, Worldpay), Open Banking APIs, PSD2-compliant payment flows, and Apple Pay with UK merchant accounts. Full code ownership, GBP-denominated milestones, and App Store submission included.
Our SwiftUI team builds declarative iOS interfaces that meet Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and UK accessibility standards — WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, dark mode, adaptive layouts for all Apple device sizes, and reusable design systems your UK in-house team can maintain after delivery.
Internal enterprise iOS apps for UK businesses: field service tools, LMS platforms, ERP mobile interfaces, HR apps, and operational dashboards. Supports MDM deployment via Jamf or Microsoft Intune, Active Directory SSO, and UK data residency requirements where data must remain within the UK or EU.
Monthly retainer maintenance for UK iOS products: iOS version compatibility after each Apple September release, Crashlytics monitoring, performance optimisation, UK GDPR compliance maintenance, App Store policy updates, and feature additions. UK business hour escalation for urgent production issues.
We integrate ARKit and Core ML for UK property, retail, and healthcare clients. Virtual property tours for UK estate agents, AR product visualisation for UK retailers, and on-device AI for NHS-adjacent healthtech iOS apps — all App Store compliant and delivered with UK market UX sensibility.
We migrate legacy Objective-C and UIKit codebases to modern Swift and SwiftUI for UK product teams ready to modernise their iOS stack. Incremental, production-safe migration with no feature regression — and a codebase that survives every annual iOS update without emergency patching.
UK startups and digital agencies hire dedicated Swift developers from StudioKrew to extend their team without London hiring costs or employer overheads. Full-time or part-time, daily standups in GMT, fortnightly TestFlight builds, weekly milestone reports, and IP ownership on completion.
Our iOS apps power businesses across UK fintech, healthtech, proptech, edtech, and enterprise mobility. Get A Quote!








We understand that UK startups, scale-ups, and enterprise teams have different delivery requirements. Our four engagement models are designed to fit your budget, timeline, and growth plan — whether you need a single Swift engineer for a sprint or a complete iOS squad for a multi-year product roadmap.
Full-time Swift or SwiftUI engineers working exclusively on your UK product. Deep alignment with your goals, daily standups in GMT, fortnightly TestFlight builds, and consistent output. Ideal for long-term London product teams and enterprise builds.
Pay only for actual hours and resources used. Perfect for UK products with evolving roadmaps, ongoing feature development, or refactoring work. Scale your iOS team up or down as sprint priorities shift, with transparent weekly timesheets.
Best for UK startup MVPs and PoCs with clear requirements. Fixed price in GBP, well-defined deliverables, milestone-based payments, and zero hidden costs. Ideal for founders who need a production-ready iOS app by a specific UK launch date.
Extend your London or UK in-house iOS team with StudioKrew Swift engineers who adopt your tools, workflows, Jira boards, and time zones. On-demand iOS expertise without UK employer overhead, National Insurance costs, or recruitment agency fees.
Every iOS app we build for UK clients includes UK GDPR and ICO compliance by design: consent management screens, data minimisation at the architecture level, right-to-erasure flows, secure encrypted storage, and App Store privacy nutrition labels that accurately reflect your app's data practices. GDPR Data Processing Agreements are provided as standard.
India Standard Time is only 4.5 hours ahead of GMT. Our developers start their day at 9 AM IST, which is 4:30 AM GMT — by the time your UK team begins their morning, we have already completed a full working session. Sprint reviews, milestone calls, and daily written updates all happen within UK business hours without scheduling friction.
London iOS agencies charge £80 to £200 per hour. StudioKrew delivers the same Apple-certified Swift and SwiftUI expertise at £15 to £45 per hour. For a typical 12-week UK startup MVP, that is a saving of £30,000 to £90,000 — with the same technical quality, App Store compliance standards, and delivery rigour.
We sign NDAs and IP ownership agreements reviewed to UK legal standards before any code is written. Your UK solicitor is welcome to review and amend the contract. Full source code and all intellectual property transfer to you on project completion. We invoice in GBP and are experienced with UK contractual requirements.
Development runs in two-week Agile sprints. At the end of each sprint you receive a working TestFlight build to install on your iPhone and test the latest features yourself. You see a working product every fortnight — not a status report. Sprint reviews are scheduled at times convenient for your UK team.
We have built iOS apps for UK fintech (FCA-regulated, Open Banking, PSD2), NHS-adjacent healthtech (CQC-aware data handling), proptech (RICS-aligned compliance), and UK enterprise clients. Our developers understand UK regulatory requirements and build compliance into the iOS architecture from the first sprint — not as a retrofit.
GDPR-compliant. UK business hour communication. Apple-certified Swift developers. Fixed-cost GBP quotes. NDA and IP ownership before day one. A working TestFlight build every fortnight.
