App Auditing

Code and UX App Auditing Services

Trust the Soluntech team to carry out an exhaustive analysis of your mobile or desktop application. Our web development consultants will analyze all the technical details of your app and perform an exhaustive UX/UI audit and code audit of your solution.

We perform research to ensure your mobile app's maintainability, scalability, performance, security, and optimal user experience. You will also receive a comprehensive technical review and UX audit checklist in which we detail the strengths and possible improvements of your application.

This thorough, top-to-bottom approach is an invaluable tool for any business seeking to optimize app performance and deliver an outstanding product to users and stakeholders. In an increasingly competitive market, code and UX audits for your app are the key to app longevity and ensuring maximum ROI for your business.

Problems an App Audit Can Solve

After investing time and money into your app development, there's no reason to let it fail because of problems within the code or poor UX/UI. Here’s what we do in an app audit.

Identify bugs, bottlenecks, glitches, and other issues

Whether you are looking to automate internal workflows or meet the needs of a much larger market, no one has the time or patience to deal with a glitchy or slow-moving app. By conducting a code audit, Soluntech’s team of innovative web development consultants work with you to take inventory of your app’s current quality and pinpoint coding discrepancies that could negatively impact app performance and user experience.

Solving a problem doesn’t necessarily mean spending more money. We recommend cost-effective low-code solutions wherever possible to eliminate bottlenecks without placing demands on your budget.

Evaluate the security of the application

In a climate where the threat of hacking and information theft is at an all-time high, you have a responsibility to protect valuable data belonging to your users and your company. Soluntech’s code audit evaluates the current security of your app.

Here are just a few of the most common vulnerabilities that an app audit can uncover:

• Code injection flaws

• Broken authentication 

• Security misconfigurations

• Insecure direct object references

• Outdated components or components with known vulnerabilities

• Encryption issues exposing sensitive information

• And many more potential data security hazards

Analyze the platform’s usability

The most important aspect of any app is its overall usability and capacity to meet the needs of your particular market. One of the goals of app auditing is to not only test if your app functions correctly but also to measure if it’s driving conversions.

Soluntech’s UX audit checklist allows you to take stock of how your app is currently meeting user demands and where it may fail to meet a certain need. We help you determine the necessary steps to streamline the user experience and increase your net promoter score.

In other words, we don’t just want your app to work. We want users to love it.

Assess code implementation

You can’t build a house without first establishing a solid foundation. A code audit enables you to:

• Check for inconsistencies in your app’s code that contribute to performance issues or security concerns

• Identify where there are logic or run-time errors

• Find where coding best practices are not being followed 

• Locate outdated code

Increase ease of integration and future-proofing

To ensure the longevity of your app in an ever-changing market, it must be able to adapt and change as technology evolves. This is why ensuring that your app is integration-friendly is so important. A code audit can help you identify potential integration issues if—or when—you decide to add a new feature or move to a new platform. 

This helps protect your investment by future-proofing your app and ensures that you will be able to make timely updates and changes necessary to remain competitive in your market without sacrificing quality or user experience.

Increase app scalability

As your audience expands, your app should be able to grow alongside it. Conducting an app audit makes your app more scalable by verifying that its infrastructure can handle the demand that accompanies an increased volume of users.

Business owners who don’t prioritize scalability run the risk of producing an app that can’t keep up with the demands of its audience, and they develop a reputation for a UX plagued by lags and glitches.

Quality assurance is a must for any company, but our mobile and web development consultants will do far more than just test for bugs. When you partner with Soluntech, you become a member of a small, committed team of app innovators.

FAQ

How exactly does an app audit work?

An app audit is a process by which our team of mobile and web development consultants conducts a thorough review of your mobile app’s current infrastructure, taking into account factors including the app’s overall usability, security grade, app architecture, compliance, code quality, potential vulnerabilities and bugs, and ease of app integration.

We provide full reports and recommendations, but the workflow feels more like a conversation. We want to understand your goals so we can help you meet them as efficiently as possible.

What are the phases of an app audit?

1. Information interview: Each app audit begins with an informational interview. You’ll connect with one of Soluntech’s expert app consultants to talk about your app and how you seek to address market demand, where you are in the app development process, and what your company needs most urgently.
   
   During this risk-free, zero-obligation pre-consultation meeting, you will also discuss any issues or concerns about your app that you are looking to address and outline goals you have for the app audit process.

2. In-depth code review: Next, Soluntech’s mobile and web development consultants will begin a deep dive into your app by first familiarizing themselves with its overall architecture and code structure. The app auditing team reviews the app on both the back end and the front end by looking for coding errors, noncompliances, security threats, issues with data storage, and other potential red flags.
   
   The goal of the code audit is to evaluate overall app functionality and security to pinpoint where exactly adjustments are necessary for your app to best meet the needs of your market and to operate at the highest possible level.

3. Extensive UX/UI audit: During this phase, Soluntech uses our UX audit checklist to identify the quality of the current app design and user experience to identify areas for improvement.

4. Report generation and information sharing: Lastly, the Soluntech mobile and web development consultant team generates a detailed report on code audit findings listing inconsistencies, noncompliances, or other issues that could pose a problem for app performance and security. Along with this list, the audit team provides:

• Data-backed proposed solutions to identified issues 

• Proven best practices for improving code implementation 

• A list of potential security vulnerabilities and ways they can be addressed 

• UX/UI solutions to improve overall user experience and increase conversion

• Other tips and techniques to optimize the performance of your app

When should I consider conducting an app audit?

• Before switching platforms — Conducting a code audit before making the change to a new platform can help ensure that the transition is smooth without sacrificing quality or functionality.

• Before introducing the project to a larger audience — Whether you are looking to prove that your app can complete market validation testing or simply seeking to roll your app out to a larger audience, a code audit can ensure that your app can handle a higher number of users, preventing app crashes that can serve as red flags to consumers and investors alike.

• Before buying, selling, or investing in a business — You wouldn’t buy or sell your house before doing your research. The same principle applies to buying or selling a business. An app audit can help you take inventory of an app, its capabilities, and its worth before making a big business move like buying, selling, or investing in that app.

• When you are looking to attract investors — Performing a code audit to troubleshoot any potential bugs before putting out a call for collaborators is a great way to put your best foot forward with potential investors. Investors are typically more likely to invest in apps that have demonstrated high marks in functionality, user experience, and data security.

• Regular audits are important — No matter where you are in the app development process, regular app evaluations and code audits are crucial to keeping your app evergreen and ensuring that your app is keeping up with a rapidly changing technological landscape.
  
  Failure to periodically reassess your app can cause your app to become outdated, making it less user-friendly and unable to compete with your competitors.

How much does an app audit cost?

Cost varies depending on the specifics of your project. When we meet, we’ll share an array of cost-controlled packages that come with transparent price estimates. No matter your specific business needs or budget, Soluntech has a solution that will work for your app at a price that won’t break the bank.

How long does an app audit take?

Although the time it takes to conduct a comprehensive app review and code audit can differ based on company and app size, typically, most requests have a turnaround time of fewer than ten days.

Why should I use a third-party consultant for app auditing?

Using a third party for app audits rather than assigning a member of the original app development team gives you the advantage of having new sets of eyes on the project. App auditors who haven’t been with the project from the start are often more capable of offering a more objective point of view and providing creative solutions.

Because Soluntech’s team of expert mobile and web development consultants have experience in creating app solutions, your company can save time and money they would have otherwise spent on training in-house staff just to get their footing with the app auditing process.
