Mobile Apps

One App, Two Stores

We build a single app with Flutter or React Native that ships to both iOS and Android, so you launch sooner and maintain one product instead of two.

Overview

Cross-Platform App Development

Cross-platform app development uses frameworks such as Flutter and React Native to produce iOS and Android apps from largely shared code. Unlike older web-wrapper approaches, these tools render real interfaces and can reach most device features, which is why many products now start there. For many products this is the most practical way to reach both audiences without doubling the work.

Our work is hands-on and specific: choosing between frameworks, building the screens, wiring in the camera, maps, payments or notifications, and testing on a wide set of real devices. Where a feature truly needs native code, we write it as a module inside the app, so you get the speed of a shared codebase without hitting a ceiling.

Context

Problems we solve

  • 01

    Framework selection

    Flutter and React Native suit different teams and products. Choosing without context risks friction later.

  • 02

    Native module needs

    Some features still need platform code. Planning for them avoids surprises mid-project.

  • 03

    Device and OS variety

    One codebase still has to run well on many screens, chipsets and OS versions.

Capabilities

What we deliver

  1. 01

    Flutter app development

    We build expressive, high-performance interfaces in Dart with consistent rendering on both platforms.

  2. 02

    React Native app development

    Teams with JavaScript or React skills get apps built on familiar patterns and shared web logic.

  3. 03

    Native modules when needed

    We bridge to Swift or Kotlin for features that shared code cannot reach.

  4. 04

    State and data layers

    Clean state management and API handling keep the app maintainable as features grow.

  5. 05

    Real-device testing

    We test on a range of physical phones and tablets, not just emulators.

  6. 06

    Store launch and updates

    Builds, signing and submission for both stores are handled, with over-the-air options where suitable.

Where it fits

  • Consumer apps launching on both stores
  • Startup MVPs on a tight runway
  • Booking and ordering apps
  • Companion apps for hardware products
  • Replacing two aging native apps

Technologies we use

  • Flutter
  • Dart
  • React Native
  • TypeScript
  • Firebase
  • Redux
  • REST APIs
  • Fastlane

Approach

How we deliver

  1. 1

    Discover

    We learn your goals, users, constraints and existing systems before proposing anything.

  2. 2

    Plan

    Scope, priorities, architecture and milestones are agreed so everyone knows what ships when.

  3. 3

    Design

    User flows, interfaces and technical design are shaped and reviewed with you early.

  4. 4

    Build

    Work is delivered in short iterations with regular demos, so progress is always visible.

  5. 5

    Test

    Functional, integration and performance checks run throughout, not only at the end.

  6. 6

    Launch & support

    We deploy, monitor and keep improving the product after it goes live.

FAQs

Common questions

Have a question that is not covered here? Get in touch.

Flutter or React Native: which should we pick?

Flutter gives tight control over visuals and consistent rendering; React Native suits teams already working in JavaScript and sharing code with a React web app. We compare both against your features and team before recommending one.

Will a cross-platform app feel native?

Done well, yes. We follow each platform's navigation and interaction conventions where they matter, and use native modules when a feature needs them.

How much does sharing one codebase actually save?

Savings come from building and testing most features once. They shrink if the app needs a lot of platform-specific work, so the amount depends on your feature set.

Can an existing native app move to cross-platform?

It can, but we usually recommend migrating gradually or only when maintenance cost justifies it. We would review the app first and propose a staged plan.
