One single point of contact, from concept to publication. 12 years of experience. 15+ apps delivered.
In short: I build iOS and Android apps for clients in Toronto (2,794,356 residents) and across Ontario. One single point of contact, 12 years of experience, delivery from concept to publication in 8 to 16 weeks.
You are not looking for an agency. You are not looking for a code factory. You are looking for a partner.
I am a freelance mobile app developer.
The key advantage: you have one single point of contact from start to finish. Me.
No account manager acting as a buffer. No salesperson selling you impossible dreams. And most importantly, no junior developer hidden in the back room learning the trade on your dime.
Have an idea for the Toronto market or for the rest of your Canada? We discuss it directly.
Today, 63% of global web traffic comes from mobile devices (Statista, 2025).
Your future users are already on their phones.
But they are demanding.
They click. They quit. They forget.
People often come to me with a fifty-page specification document.
"I would like it to do this, and that too, and a badge system, and a partner portal..."
A classic developer will say yes and bill you for six months of work.
As a mobile product engineer, my first question is always: "Why?"
Why does the user need this feature on day one?
The most important factor is validating the actual need.
The data is stubborn: 80% of developed features are never used by the end public (Pendo, 2025).
This is what we call UX debt.
We add buttons everywhere, we create a Frankenstein app, and the user in Toronto eventually abandons it out of mental fatigue.
My role is not to blindly execute a wish list to Santa.
My role is to challenge your ideas.
To trim the fat.
To transform your vision into a profitable product, not a technical mess.
We will isolate the core value of your idea for your entire Canada, and develop it flawlessly.
We launch fast, we test, and then we build upon real feedback.
This approach makes all the difference for my clients in Toronto.
Are you having problems with your current app? Plummeting ratings? Unexplained slowdowns? They click. They quit. They forget.
It's the worst-case scenario. And that's exactly where I step in. Backed by 12 years of experience, I help businesses from Bordeaux rescue failing iOS and Android projects. I run the diagnosis, we identify the roadblocks, and we fix them to finally offer a smooth experience to your users.
In short: don't let a bad start ruin your idea. Let's correct the course together.
You are launching your project in Toronto.
And you are probably wondering who to work with to build your mobile app.
It is the first major decision you have to make. Some people think that to succeed, you absolutely need a big agency right around the corner. Others believe they should outsource to the cheapest team they can find overseas.
Both options come with serious tradeoffs.
A big agency will assign your project to a junior developer you have never met. An offshore team will deliver code you cannot read, three weeks behind schedule, with zero accountability.
The most important factor in the success of an app is not just the code. It is communication.
When you work with me, you get one dedicated expert with 12 years of experience and over 15 delivered projects. Not an account manager. Not a rotating team. One person who knows your project inside out.
Toronto is the one Canadian market where you will be compared against agencies with account managers before anyone looks at the work. That changes the conversation: the question stops being whether it can be built and becomes who you will actually be talking to. With me it is the person writing the code, which on a first product is worth several weeks.
The reason it is worth weeks is loss of signal. In an agency, what you say in a meeting is restated by an account manager, passed to a technical lead, and cut into tickets for developers who have never heard you speak. Each step loses a little intent. When you explain why a screen has to behave a certain way, the person who will write it is listening, and can tell you in the same breath that it will cost three extra days or that it will fight the platform.
The honest limit is the other side of that. One person is not a team of thirty. I will not take a project that needs four developers in parallel to hit a fixed date, I do not do interface design at the level of a specialist studio, and if the product has to launch on iOS, Android, web and a connected TV at once, you need something other than me. I say that in the first conversation rather than the third month.
Practically, Toronto is six hours behind me, so your morning is my afternoon and we get about three hours of real overlap a day. That is enough to answer a blocking question the same day and to hold a weekly call, and it is not enough for a project that needs continuous discussion. Ontario also has its own privacy rules, and if your users include health information the requirements tighten considerably — worth settling at the start, because it determines where the data is allowed to live.
Invent Better starts by removing, not adding. An app that does one thing properly ships in two months; one that does five things halfway never ships at all. Given that 80% of features planned in advance are never actually used (Pendo, 2025), the useful question is not whether a feature would be nice, but whether anyone still uses the app without it.
I am not an extremist for a single technology.
Technical choices must serve your Canada's business goals, not the other way around.
In short: every project has unique needs that dictate the tool to use.
If you are aiming for an ultra-premium user experience with complex animations, we will go with native code (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android).
Even though Android dominates in volume, iOS users spend on average 2x more inside apps.
We often need to take special care of this demographic.
But if you need to test an idea quickly in the Toronto market with a limited budget, Flutter is an incredible strategic choice.
It allows us to code once and have an app for both platforms.
I do not say yes to everyone.
That is the luxury of being an independent freelance mobile developer.
The most important factor for me is the human fit and the viability of your idea.
If you just want to build an Uber clone for the 2,794,356 people in Toronto with zero marketing budget, I will tell you it is a bad idea.
I look for clients with whom I can build a long-term relationship based on trust.
Entrepreneurs who understand that technical quality takes time.
Performance is non-negotiable.
Around 53% of mobile users abandon a page if it takes more than 3 seconds to load (Google, 2025).
I commit to my projects because my name is attached to the final app.
We do a discovery call, we talk frankly, and we see if we are meant to work together.
It is all a matter of mutual trust.
This is exactly what I offer to businesses in Toronto.
Sometimes, people call me when things go wrong.
A CEO in Toronto had entrusted his project to a low-cost agency to save money.
The app was crashing one out of every three times it opened.
Their store rating was catastrophic.
The key point: the code had become a plate of spaghetti, unmanageable due to a lack of rigor.
This leader was losing customers daily, because 62% of people uninstall an app after a crash (Statista, 2025).
He fired the agency and hired me.
I performed a full technical audit within 48 hours.
I plugged in professional analysis tools to see exactly where things were breaking for users.
In four weeks, we stabilized the existing product.
The bleeding stopped.
Then we began a clean rebuild, step by step, to bring back user trust across the Ontario area.
Cheap always ends up costing you dearly in the end.
This is the level of rigour I bring to every project in Toronto.
With a freelance developer you pay for the work and nothing around it. An agency invoice also carries the office rent, the account manager's salary and the company margin, none of which show up in your app. The practical consequence is that more of the same budget reaches the build itself.
Let's talk about the true cost of a mobile app.
The key advantage of working with a freelance developer in Toronto is that you pay solely for value.
With a large agency, your invoice absorbs the rent for their fancy offices, the foosball table, the account manager's salary, and the company's profit margin.
With me, you pay for expertise.
Every dollar invested goes directly into the code, design, and quality of your product.
You should not look for the absolute lowest price.
That is dangerous, because 77% of mobile users read reviews before downloading (Statista, 2025).
I have worked with a wide variety of clients. The fundamental principles of a great app remain the same, regardless of the sector.
The difference lies in the specific business logic of your industry in Toronto.
For commerce, friction is public enemy number one.
The most important factor is the fluidity of the checkout process.
If the user has to fill out 15 fields on their small screen to pay, they will leave.
I design purchasing journeys that actually convert.
It is worth noting that iOS users spend on average 2x more inside apps than Android users.
The experience on iPhones must be absolutely perfect.
If you sell a service in the Ontario area, the app must simplify your customers' lives.
Booking an appointment or a service should take exactly three clicks.
We integrate Apple Pay and Google Pay to eliminate the credit card barrier.
We make the experience completely obvious.
This approach makes all the difference for my clients in Toronto.
The work continues. An application is never frozen in time. With constant Android and iOS system updates, the code must be maintained. I offer maintenance packages to ensure your product always runs flawlessly for the 2,794,356 people in Toronto.
Google now requires new developer accounts to test their application with 20 testers for two consecutive weeks before public release. I guide my clients to structure this testing phase and ensure the app meets Google's criteria without stalling the launch.
The most important factor is being proactive. Do not rely on emails from your users: 96% of them never report a bug if they encounter one (2025). I always install crash detection tools in the background to be alerted instantly.
Absolutely. You can check my LinkedIn profile or my portfolio. I have loyal clients all over the world and in your Canada who would be happy to speak with you about our collaboration.
Yes. As a full-stack developer, I configure all the invisible mechanics (Firebase databases or custom servers, security, APIs) so that your application communicates properly with your existing systems.
This is exactly what I offer to businesses in Toronto.
Ready to launch your app in Toronto?
You have the idea. You know your market in Ontario. Now, it is time to take action.
But not just in any random way. The key advantage of working together is absolute clarity. I will not sell you useless features. I will not make empty promises that I cannot keep.
In 30 minutes, you will know exactly where to start.
Book a free call →30 minutes to start your project
Book a free call →Most of my projects run remotely, and in practice that changes very little. We talk over video whenever you need to, not only at major milestones, and you can reach me with questions at any point during the project — I always answer.
Once we are working together, travelling to meet you on site can absolutely be arranged if your project calls for it. Travel costs are quoted separately, upfront and with no surprises.
