Are there any good app companies you would recommend for building a non-monetized app to help tenants navigate our facility with functions like access controls, food and beverage ordering, and wayfinding? #AppCompany #FacilityNavigation #TenantAssistance
Have you considered reaching out to local developers or IT firms to see if they can provide recommendations or services for your app needs?

Disclaimer: This is NOT an unbiased suggestion; I do Apple platform work with them in addition to my own independent development and consulting.
Have you written out what the scope of the project is? Like do you have a list of features and what those features should accomplish? Also, will the app just be in-house, or would you look to expand it out to other companies similar to yours?
Definitely get someone you trust who knows at least *a bit* about software development (not necessarily in the particular niche of yours), otherwise there’s huge chance you’ll get milked by an agency or at least will not get an honest deal.
Anyway, consider if it’s needed to be iOS only or Android as well? If both, I’d go with “Flutter”, otherwise build native – that could be your starting point. If you hear them talking about “webview”, “cordova” or “ionic” – run, it’s not good choice when building app from scratch in your particular situation.
Coincidentally I’m building an app for HOAs, apartment buildings, etc. I’m not trying to sell you anything, but would u mind expounding on what you’d want and why? It’d help me out a ton and I’d really appreciate it
