Mobile App Development

One codebase, shipped to both app stores at once.

Overview

A good app feels simple because the hard work happens underneath: real-time connections that survive a weak signal, payments that work the way your customers pay, and a backend that holds up on launch day. We design and build the app, the API behind it, and the admin tools your team uses to run it, then take it through App Store and Google Play review. WAYA and Shaxi, two apps we built and still run, are live in both stores today.

What usually brings clients to us

Two platforms, one budget

Separate iOS and Android apps double the cost and the bugs. You need both stores on day one without paying for everything twice.

Real time is hard to get right

Chat, calls, live tracking, and instant notifications break on patchy networks and mid-range phones unless they are built for it from the start.

Launch day is the real test

A big launch can bring tens of thousands of sign-ups in hours. The app and the backend behind it have to hold.

What you get

What we build for you

Every engagement is scoped to your business. These are the pieces most projects in this area include.

iOS and Android apps

One Flutter or React Native codebase, built and tested on the phones your customers actually use.

Backend API and admin panel

A Laravel API for the app and a web dashboard for your team to manage users, content, and operations.

Real-time features

Chat, presence, live location, and voice and video calls over WebSockets and WebRTC, built to reconnect when the network changes.

Payments and wallets

Card and mobile money payments, in-app wallets, receipts, and payouts, shaped around how your business earns.

Push notifications and maps

Firebase push notifications, native call alerts, maps, routing, and live location tracking.

Build and test on devices

Weekly test builds through TestFlight and Google Play testing, so you use the app as it grows.

Store launch and support

Store submission, launch monitoring, and 30 days of fixes and support after release.

Mobile App Development FAQ

What clients usually ask

Anything we have not covered, ask us directly. We reply within one business day.

Both build iOS and Android apps from one codebase, and we have shipped live apps with each: Shaxi runs on Flutter and WAYA on React Native. We recommend one after discovery based on your features, your team, and any code you already have.

Yes. We prepare the store listings, submit the app for review, and handle any feedback from Apple or Google. We recommend publishing under your own developer accounts so the listings belong to you.

It should, and we build for it. We compress media, retry failed requests, cache what the user needs, and design real-time features to reconnect when a phone switches between Wi-Fi and mobile data.

Yes. Every app we build comes with the API behind it and a web admin panel for your team, so one team is accountable for the whole system.
