Brian’s career began in game development for PlayStation and Xbox, later transitioning to Unity mobile games.

Since Flutter’s debut in 2017, Brian has specialized in Flutter development, including building Swiss Chalet’s food delivery app. In 2020, he launched Brian Kayfitz Development Corporation, a Toronto-based agency focused on startup app development, converting native apps to Flutter, mentoring developers, and managing mobile app teams.

Frequently Asked Questions:

We created an MVP app for our mobile app development agency to showcase what’s possible in under one week of development. The app includes a cost estimator, fitness module, About Us section, media player, mini-game, and more! Check it out to spark ideas for your own app’s starting point.

The beauty of customized app development is that any feature or idea can be brought to life. As a senior mobile app developer, Brian has built over 20 apps—some used by millions, others as prototypes or MVPs. Always at the cutting edge, Brian’s recent projects include integrating large language models (LLMs) with mobile app interfaces.

If your app was built by an offshore development agency and isn’t performing as expected, there are a few ways to address the issue. First, conduct a quick code review to check for architectural problems, audit third-party packages, and identify the root cause. In some cases, if no obvious issues are found, it might be faster to rewrite the app entirely. For mobile app development services including new features, re-writing an existing app or fixing bugs, Brian Kayfitz can help. 

If your code is written in native languages such as Objective-C and Kotlin, and you are maintaining two codebases, you have options. As a mobile  app freelancer, you can either migrate your existing code to Flutter or continue adding new features in Flutter on top of your native codebase.

Developing a new app requires both time and money. The timeline depends on the app’s complexity, customization needs, and features. When starting your app development, Brian recommends building an MVP (Minimum Viable Product)—a basic version of your app designed to test the market and gather user feedback.

An MVP can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to build, starting at a few thousand dollars but potentially scaling higher depending on requirements. You can also use an MVP app calculator to get a more precise estimate. To get your MVP build by an app development agency in Toronto, contact Brian Kayfitz. 

The main advantage of outsourcing app development is faster time to market and access to specialized skill sets. Your team may lack the expertise to develop an app quickly and efficiently. However, with mobile app training and mentorship offered by Brian Kayfitz, you can upskill your team to build high-quality apps that perform smoothly. This can include mentorship sessions for junior developers and thorough code reviews for any new features your programmers are working on.

Vibe coding is when, instead of writing code yourself, you use AI to generate code from natural language prompts.

As a Flutter mobile app developer who has tested vibe coding, I’ve found it doesn’t scale well. While it can be useful for quickly creating prototypes, it’s not ideal for building sustainable, high-quality apps.

It often doesn’t save time because the generated code usually needs significant updates before it’s ready for release. Additionally, the code may contain risks or quality issues that could lead to rejection by the App Store.

As a mobile app freelancer, Brian is available to build new app ideas, add features to existing apps, train developers, and manage development teams through code reviews and problem-solving.

Brian has been a mobile app mentor for over 5 years, helping more than 100 developers of all skill levels. If you’re facing issues with your codebase, need training on best app development practices, or are stuck on a problem, Brian can help.

Yes! With the latest advances in LLM models, you can enhance your app’s functionality by adding AI capabilities. These can range from a customized travel itinerary feature to a wine and food pairing assistant. As a mobile app development agency, we have implemented custom-built AI models and integrated them with existing LLMs and tools.

There are some fundamental differences between hiring a mobile app development agency and hiring a mobile app freelancer.

The advantages of working with an agency include access to multiple developers, design services, and testers. However, agencies can be expensive, may take longer to develop your app, and sometimes have a narrower focus.

Hiring a freelancer usually means working with a senior developer who will be the sole person handling your codebase. A freelancer can also train your existing developers and collaborate alongside your team. So, if you’re building an app in-house but need extra help to launch it on the app stores, a freelancer is often the best choice.

Another option is offshore mobile app development companies. They typically charge lower hourly rates than North American developers, but the quality may vary, and you might end up paying more in the long run due to potential issues.

As a mobile app freelancer, Brian has no minimum commitments or retainers. He’s happy to do code reviews, develop specific features, or help solve any programming challenges your team is facing. He’s also available to discuss your app’s architecture, tech stack, or any strategic questions you may have.

As a mobile app freelancer, I don’t charge an hourly rate. Instead, pricing is based on what your project needs. If you’re building an MVP, prices typically start at $5,000 USD as a flat rate and scale depending on the complexity of the app. For one off tasks, bug fixes, tutoring or mentoring, I typically charge a flat rate of $150 USD.
