React Native

One codebase. iOS and Android. No shortcuts on quality.

React Native lets us ship one app to both app stores without building it twice. You get native screens, native speed and one team to talk to — and your product reaches iPhone and Android users on the same launch day.

01 — Services

What we build with React Native

Secure, maintainable React Native work — from a first MVP to apps with thousands of daily users.

  1. Cross-platform apps

    One app for iOS and Android, written once and tuned per platform where it matters — gestures, navigation and store rules.

  2. Consulting & audits

    Thinking about React Native, or stuck with a slow app? We review the codebase and tell you plainly what to keep, fix or rebuild.

  3. UI/UX design

    Screens designed for thumbs, not desktops — clear flows, readable type and details that feel right on both platforms.

  4. Back-end & APIs

    The server side your app talks to: secure APIs, authentication, payments and third-party integrations.

  5. Testing & maintenance

    Automated tests, real-device QA, crash monitoring and regular updates, so each release is as solid as the first.

  6. Dedicated developers

    Senior React Native engineers who join your team, work in your tools and report to you directly.

  7. MVP development

    Test your idea on both platforms at once. A focused MVP gets real users in weeks, not months.

  8. Tablet & foldable apps

    Layouts that adapt to iPads, Android tablets and foldables instead of stretching a phone screen.

02 — Why React Native

One codebase vs. two

How building once with React Native compares to building two separate native apps.

React NativeTwo native apps
  • Code you maintain

    One shared codebase instead of two
  • Time to launch on both stores

    Features ship to iOS and Android together
  • Team size needed

    One team instead of an iOS and an Android team
  • Native look & feel

    Real native components, not a web view

03 — The technology

Key things to know about React Native

React Native is an open-source framework from Meta, released in 2015. You write the app in JavaScript or TypeScript with React, and it renders real native components on iPhone and Android.

That is the difference from older “hybrid” apps: there is no web page inside a wrapper. Buttons, lists and navigation are the platform’s own, so the app looks and feels like it belongs on the phone.

It suits most business apps — marketplaces, bookings, social, fintech dashboards, internal tools. For heavy 3D games or apps that live on custom hardware, we’ll tell you when fully native is the better call.

04 — Process

How a React Native project runs

Four stages, with a working build in your hands from the first weeks.

  1. 01

    Plan the product

    We map your users, the must-have features and the tools you’ll need, then agree a scope and timeline you can hold us to.

  2. 02

    Build the right team

    React Native needs specific skills. We put together senior developers who fit the project — and who you can actually talk to.

  3. 03

    Develop in sprints

    Two-week sprints with a test build on your phone at the end of each, so you see progress instead of hearing about it.

  4. 04

    Test and launch

    Unit tests throughout, QA on real iOS and Android devices, then we handle both store submissions and stay on after launch.

FAQ

React Native questions

01Is React Native front-end or back-end?

Front-end. React Native builds the app people hold in their hand. The server behind it — APIs, databases, payments — is built separately, usually with Node.js, and we build both.

02How much does a React Native app cost?

It depends on the features, the number of screens and the back-end. Because one codebase covers iOS and Android, it usually costs noticeably less than two native apps. We give a fixed estimate after a short discovery call.

03How long does it take to build a React Native app?

A focused MVP typically takes 8–12 weeks. Larger apps with custom back-ends and integrations take 3–6 months. You get a timeline before any work starts.

04Can I hire React Native developers full-time?

Yes. Our developers can join your team as dedicated engineers — working in your tools, in your time zone, reporting to you.

05What kinds of apps can you build with React Native?

Marketplaces, booking and delivery apps, social and community apps, fintech and health dashboards, e-commerce, and internal company tools. If it needs heavy 3D or unusual hardware access, we’ll say so up front.
