FAQ

Wearable app development means creating software applications designed to operate on body-worn gadgets (smartwatches, smart helmets, etc.). These apps are optimized for tiny displays and integrated with various sensors.

Usually, wearable application development services include research and use case creation, design and development of software applications for operating on body-worn devices, as well as their deployment to the app stores. However, the scope of services is often flexible, depending on the project, industry, and wearable app's intended use.

The development timeline depends on the app's complexity and desired features. Usually, a wearable application development company will spend more time on building an app that should also be integrated with cloud, AI, computer vision, AR/VR, IoT, and other advanced technologies.

Yes, as a wearable app development company, we can do that and more. At N-iX, we have the resources to provide complex end-to-end wearable solutions. Our offerings include wearable app development, hardware and sensor integration, firmware development, maintenance and OTA updates, hardware design, app optimization, and more.

We help companies implement security measures throughout the iterative development process and on different layers (wearable device, network, cloud, application). It allows us to minimize security incidents, create robust risk management strategies, and prevent cyberattacks.
