The Top 10 App Developers in Vancouver
Vancouver is a key player in Canada's technology landscape, marked by particular strengths in software development, gaming, and digital media. With institutions like the University of British Columbia fuelling research and innovation, Vancouver continues to attract international tech talent and investments.
Vancouver has plenty of app development agencies, but it isn't always easy to choose the right ones.
Online directories are plagued by companies gaming the results and spoofing their locations, with many located nowhere near Vancouver. There are also some unreliable outfits that don't really offer the services they claim!
At MobiLoud we've built thousands of iOS and Android apps, and we've worked with plenty of app development agencies. We used our experience to research Vancouver app developers, and eventually came up with a list of the top 10.
You can use this list as a starting point, then research each option in more detail to make a decision. We'll also explain why, if you already have a website or web app, MobiLoud is a better option than any Vancouver app developer.

So there you have it, the 30 best app developers in Vancouver. Go ahead and contact them or do further research to make a decision.
Firstly though one question.....Do you really need an app development agency?
As we've seen, there are plenty of app developers in Vancouver who can build decent apps.
They have their downsides though. For a start, they aren't cheap, and basic apps will likely set you back $50k+. They also tend to be busy with work, and even if they can start working on your apps right away - it'll most likely be 3-6 months to get a first version shipped (minimum).
This is all worth it, of course, to get great apps. But is it necessary?
No - not if you already have a website, online store, or web app.
