GDPR, TDDDG and BFSG
This is general information, not legal advice. Your legal adviser has the final word.
GDPR and the Munich supervisory authority
The GDPR applies to every app that processes personal data of people in the EU. Data protection supervision for companies in Munich sits with the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA), which supervises companies in Bavaria. We plan consent, data minimisation and deletion into the app from the first sprint.
Official source: Supervisory authority (lda.bayern.de) ↗TDDDG § 25: consent for device access
Under the German TDDDG, storing or reading information on a user's device, for example for tracking or analytics, needs the user's consent unless it is strictly necessary for the service the user asked for. We build consent into the app itself, not only into your website.
Official source: TDDDG § 25 (gesetze-im-internet.de) ↗BFSG: accessibility for consumer services
Since 28 June 2025 the German Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) covers many services for consumers, including e-commerce and consumer banking services. We design and test apps for accessibility from the start.

Frequently asked questions
App development in Munich: before you book a call.
Do you have an office in Munich?
No. We serve Munich from our Zürich office at Hardstrasse 201, 8005 Zürich, about 240 km away. Meet us in person at our Zürich office or at any of our 10 offices, or by video. Workshops, design reviews and weekly check-ins run in English.
How much does app development cost in Munich?
Pricing is custom. Cost depends on platforms, screens and features, integrations, design depth, compliance needs and your timeline. After a short brief and a free 30-minute call, you get a written estimate.
How long does it take to build an app?
Typically: discovery 1 to 3 weeks, design 2 to 5 weeks, build 8 to 16 weeks for a first version, testing and store release 1 to 3 weeks. These are ranges, not guarantees.
Should we build a native app or use Flutter or React Native?
Native (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) suits top performance and deep device features. Cross-platform (Flutter or React Native) shares one codebase and usually reaches both stores faster. We recommend one in discovery.
Do you build apps for automotive and engineering companies in Munich?
Yes. We build companion, service and internal apps that connect to vehicles, machines or your existing backend, with security testing before every release and documentation your IT and compliance teams can review.
How do you handle the GDPR and German rules for apps in Munich?
We plan consent, clear notices, data minimisation and deletion into the app from the first sprint, and build TDDDG-compliant consent for anything that reads or stores data on the device. For companies in Munich, the supervisory authority is the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA). Your legal adviser has the final word.
Does our app have to be accessible under the BFSG?
Many consumer services, such as e-commerce and consumer banking, fall under the BFSG since 28 June 2025, and their apps are part of the service. We design and test for accessibility from the start, so the requirement does not become a late rebuild. Your legal adviser confirms whether your service is covered.
Can the app connect to our existing systems?
Yes. We connect apps to ERP, CRM and product data systems through their APIs, and plan sign-in, roles and access rights with your IT team in Munich from the start.
Who works on our project, and how do we communicate?
Projects are led by UnFoldMart from our international offices, with a small dedicated team; projects for Munich are led from our Zürich office. Calls are by video, in English, with a demo after each sprint.
Can you take over an existing app?
Yes. We start with a review of the code, the store listings and the backend, then fix, upgrade or rebuild in steps, so your app stays available.
