Mobile Apps
Applications for mobile platforms such as smartphones and tablets have gained a new prominence, and Cardinal Peak has been involved in developing these apps basically since the beginning. We have deep expertise developing apps for Apple's iOS (iPhone and iPad), Google's Android, Hewlett-Packard's webOS, and Microsoft's Windows Phone 7.
We've written apps that are distributed through each platform's application store, and we've also written apps that are pre-installed in ROM and were subjected to the stringent carrier certification process. If appropriate, we can guide you through the considerations involved with each approach.
There are a number of small development shops that specialize in delivering simple apps on one of these platforms. Cardinal Peak is differentiated in that we support all the major mobile and CE platforms, and we can simultaneously develop your app across the whole range of platforms that are interesting to your business. Additionally, our experience includes writing relatively complex apps that interact with large back-end databases to present a compelling experience to the end user, so we are adept at using complex RESTful APIs or SOAP-based Web Services APIs.
Our specific areas of expertise include:
- iOS development, on both iPhone/iPod Touch as well as iPad
- Android development, on both smartphone and tablet form-factors
- Complex client-server architectures, including XML-based RESTful APIs and SOAP-based Web Services APIs
- Development of multi-threaded apps, including apps that rely heavily on background services
- Support for major formats for video, audio, and digital rights management (DRM)
