Mobile apps that ship and feel right.
iOS, Android, and cross-platform — built for store approval, performance, and the product polish consumers can feel in 60 seconds.
We've launched apps in the App Store and Play Store with first-pass approvals on both. The right tool depends on the product: React Native + Expo for speed and team economics, native Swift / Kotlin when there's a real reason. We'll tell you which is right — and then we'll ship it.

React Native + Expo
Default choice for most consumer apps. One codebase, shared business logic, native where it matters.
Native Swift / Kotlin
When the product needs it: intense graphics, hardware integration, deep OS hooks. We do both.
Push & deep linking
OneSignal, Firebase, or custom. Branch / Adjust for attribution. Universal Links and App Links done right.
Maps, location, real-time
Geofencing, presence, sockets, offline-first sync — the patterns that make apps feel native.
Store submission playbook
Compliance copy, reviewer notes, screenshots, and submission orchestration. First-pass approvals on both stores.
Shared web + mobile backend
When you have both, the backend is shared. One source of truth for auth, data, and business logic.
Discovery
Native vs hybrid decision, store-strategy review, and platform-specific risks surfaced upfront.
Design
iOS and Android flows in Figma — respecting each platform's conventions, shared design system underneath.
Build
Weekly TestFlight + Internal Track releases. Real device testing every sprint.
Launch
Pre-submission compliance review, store submission, and post-launch crash + performance monitoring.
Every engagement ships these.
No upsell games. The full system is in the base scope so you can measure honest ROI from month one.
- iOS app (Swift or React Native)
- Android app (Kotlin or React Native)
- Shared backend services (Node, Python)
- Push notifications + deep linking
- Analytics + crash reporting
- App Store + Play Store submission
- TestFlight + Internal Track distribution
- Handoff docs + signing key transfer
Native or React Native?
We default to React Native + Expo for most consumer apps — faster, cheaper, and the modern version is excellent. We recommend native when the product genuinely needs it.
Will it look native?
Yes. We respect each platform's design conventions and use native components where they matter. iOS users feel like it's an iOS app.
What about store rejections?
Our submission playbook + pre-review process has gotten us first-pass approvals on every launch. We bring the compliance copy and reviewer notes template that gets it through.
Who owns the signing keys?
You do — we transfer at launch. Same with developer accounts.
6 months. If we don't pay for ourselves, we work free.
