Looking for a company or developer to create a very basic app.

Hi , just wondered if anyone could recommend a company to develop a small apple app, have the app designed on paper.

Basic Functions

A person could download the app from the apple store FOC then search for a keyword it then presents the record in to a fixed layout.

Only a small record set of around a 1000 records consistent of 8 fields and 1 image field, There is no record entry required by the client only search criteria input to display the record. I have the database already setup on the web with a domain.

It's payed work but a limited budget of £800 ; if anyone is interested or can recommend a company to own this work would be most grateful.

Thanks
Ed

I'd be interested in this if you are still looking for someone ? I work as web developer but develop in ios in my spare time as a hobby. I've released one App so far but working on another.

Here's the link for my released App if you would like to see my work.

Message me if your interested.

The app sounds like the code test we send out to applicants but we ask them to search the iTunes API, should only take a few hours to make the app itself as it 'sounds' very basic.

The big question here is the data. You say you have a database online but is it accessible though some kind of API or will the entire data set need to be downloaded and then filtered locally within the app? I would advise against the latter as it would be a performance nightmare to download the data set and keep it updated locally without a properly structured API.

If you need another option for a dev then give me a shout, I've been doing full time iOS development for over 5 years so know a few things about it, even if it's just advice
