Flutter from Google is the most popular toolkit for creating cross-platform applications. It provides a cost-effective, fast and adaptable set of tools for designing and building apps.
Flutter is the most popular cross-platform development framework, developed and maintained by Google. Flutter was created with developers, compatibility and user experience in mind.
Foresight Mobile were early adopters of Flutter back in 2017, making us the UK’s most experienced Flutter development agency. We have successfully delivered over 40 Flutter apps over the last 5 years and continue to support everyone from startups to some of the largest tech companies on the planet.
By writing your app once with Flutter we can distribute your app across iOS, Android, the web and desktop - all from the same codebase. This means we can deliver your product quickly and efficiently, greatly reducing development and maintenance costs compared with native and other cross-platform technologies such as React Native.
Our years of experience as one of the earliest adopters of Flutter makes us the top UK Flutter app development agency.
Flutter’s browser support is now production-ready, allowing us to target the web effortlessly using the same code used for the mobile app.
Should we need to provide desktop admin functionality for your product we can leverage Flutter’s browser support to re-use code from your mobile offering, saving plenty of development time compared with a custom web app.
There’s no need to worry that your app won’t feel at home compared with natively-developed apps. Flutter provides native widgets for iOS and Android through the Cupertino and Material widget sets.
This widgets are built into the platform, allowing us to provide user interfaces that match the design idioms of the platform where appropriate.
Flutter’s Skia rendering engine provides 60 fps animations and transitions, and its built-in animation widgets provide great features, right out of the box.
Unlike React Native’s JavaScript, Dart compiles to native code - extracting the full performance from your device. Features like sound null safety allow us to write performant and bug-free code.
All of this means that you get a native iOS app and a native Android app all from the same codebase.
Deploying one codebase across all platforms is inherently quicker than developing the same app multiple times. Known as cross-platform app development, this is Flutter's key benefit.
Features like hot reload allow our developers to iterate quickly on features and deliver value early in the process. By leveraging technologies like bloc and clean architecture we ensure that our apps are straightforward to develop and maintain.

Questions about
Flutter App Development
Developers must pay a one-time fee of $25 to publish an app on Google Play, while Apple requires an annual fee of $99. Submitting an app is easy, and we're here to help you create an eye-catching store listing with marketing copy and screenshots.
We will typically use a platform such as Firebase to ensure that your app is stable and performant. This is low cost and scales automatically as your user numbers grow. There may be other services to consider like content management systems, but most of our apps cost less than £100 / month to run.
We commonly work with startups to design very cost-effective solutions for minimum viable product (MVP) apps. The amount that could be spent on a professionally-designed and developed app can vary widely, from £30,000 to £100,000, depending on the complexity of the project and the number of features.
The amount of time it takes to build an app depends on a variety of factors, such as the complexity of the app, the number of features, and number of services we integrate with. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to build an app.
Cross-platform app development is the process of creating an app that can be used on multiple platforms, such as iOS, Android, and the Web. This type of development allows developers to create an app once and then deploy it to multiple platforms from the same codebase, saving time and money.
Flutter uses the Dart programming language to create apps for Android, iOS and the Web. Dart is a modern, object-oriented language that is easy to learn and use. It is also very fast, allowing for quick development of apps and rapid feature iterations.
