App Development Company in Berlin & Germany.
As an app development company in Berlin, Control Shift builds iOS, Android, and cross-platform apps for founders, scale-ups, and the German Mittelstand. App development in Berlin demands more than clean code — it needs DSGVO (GDPR) compliance by design, SEPA, Klarna and SOFORT payment rails, and, for regulated fintech, BaFin-aligned architecture with PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication. As a mobile app development company serving Germany, we ship bilingual German and English products with native UX review, EUR formatting, and audit-ready data processing agreements. From a lean 4-week MVP to enterprise platforms for Munich, Hamburg, and Frankfurt teams, we engineer to the standards the DACH market expects — and hand you 100% of the source code, App Store accounts, and IP under your GmbH.
