Two separate development teams inflate the cost of a mobile app
If an application is developed separately for iOS in Swift and Android in Kotlin, every feature, bug fix, and design change must be prepared and tested twice. Development takes longer, maintenance becomes heavier, and synchronizing releases across the App Store and Google Play slows the product team down.
Higher cost
Two teams and two independent codebases mean higher costs for both development and maintenance.
Duplicate work
Every change needs to be prepared, tested, and released separately for iOS and Android.
Fragmented logic
Calculations, validation, and other business logic are often duplicated across two different applications.
Shared codebase
A large portion of the code is shared between iOS and Android, so new features can be prepared for both platforms at the same time.
Over-The-Air (OTA) updates
Expo Updates make it possible to deploy minor fixes or text changes without submitting a new version to the App Store or Google Play.
Hardware integration
Full access to the camera, GPS, Bluetooth, push notifications, and local device storage.
One codebase, two platforms
Efficient mobile app development for both iOS and Android.The proven standard for mobile applications
React Native is used by large products like Instagram, Shopify, and Tesla, but it is especially useful for business applications, customer portals, internal tools, and B2B solutions. It helps validate a product faster and evolve it without maintaining two separate codebases. With Meta's backing, the Expo ecosystem, and a large open-source library base, React Native can support complex forms, offline modes, push notifications, scanners, maps, and data synchronization.
Why we build mobile apps on React Native
How we develop mobile apps
UI/UX prototype
and architecture
We design a mobile interface optimized for gestures, thumb reach, and iOS/Android conventions.
React Native
implementation
Business logic is implemented and connected to your API or backend.
Hardware
integrations
We integrate notifications, the camera, biometrics, local storage, and other device features.
Store
publication
We prepare the builds, assets, and app publication in the Apple App Store and Google Play.
React Native vs. native development vs. progressive web app (PWA)
When React Native is not the ideal choice for you
React Native is an excellent choice for most business applications, but not for every type of product. If you are developing a graphically demanding 3D game, an app for real-time video processing, or a system requiring low-level hardware access, pure Swift or Kotlin might be a better choice. For security-critical or medical applications, the technology must be evaluated on an individual basis.

[email protected]It can, but it is often better to respect the conventions of each system. React Native allows you to adapt navigation, gestures, and certain elements so the app feels natural for iOS on an iPhone and natural for Android on an Android device.
We integrate push notifications through services like Expo Notifications or Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). They can send targeted messages based on user behavior, order status, deadlines, segments, or in-app events.
Yes. If you already have a website built on Next.js and manage data through a headless CMS, Supabase, Directus, or a custom API, the mobile app can connect to the same backend. The customer will then see the same products, prices, orders, or user data across both the website and the app.
Approval in Google Play usually takes anywhere from a few hours to a few days. The Apple App Store is typically stricter, and approval often takes 24 to 48 hours, or longer for sensitive categories. Before submission, we prepare the production builds, screenshots, app descriptions, categories, age ratings, and privacy policies. We check the stores' technical requirements and assist with the submission process so the app doesn't get stuck on formal details.
