Native mobile apps
built for real users

We build native iOS and Android apps in Swift and Kotlin. They start fast, keep working offline, store sign-in details securely and ship to the stores through automated pipelines, so each release improves the app without breaking what already works.

What's included

What we
build for you

6 capabilities, delivered by one squad. Use what you need now and add more as you grow.

  • 01

    Native UX and UI systems

    Reusable components that follow each platform's conventions, with accessibility and gestures that work on every screen size.

    • Design system components
    • Accessibility and gestures
  • 02

    Performance engineering

    Targets for start-up time and rendering, with profiling to find slow screens and memory leaks.

    • Jank and ANR reduction
    • Leak prevention
  • 03

    Offline and sync

    Actions saved on the device and queued, then synced when the connection returns, with rules for conflicting changes.

    • Queue and retry design
    • Conflict resolution
  • 04

    Secure identity and sign-in

    Tokens kept in the iOS Keychain or Android Keystore, biometric sign-in and sessions that expire safely.

    • Keychain and Keystore
    • Biometric access
  • 05

    Monitoring and analytics

    Crash analytics, performance monitoring, funnel visibility and rollouts behind feature flags.

    • Crash tracking
    • Release monitoring
  • 06

    Store-ready delivery

    Automated signing and builds, staged rollouts and store submissions prepared to avoid common rejections.

    • CI/CD and signing
    • Staged rollouts

Our approach

What usually goes wrong,
and what we do instead

  1. The usual way

    Slow start-up, scroll jank and memory leaks creep in with every release.

    How we do it

    We set targets for start-up time and smooth scrolling, profile each build and block releases that fall short.

  2. The usual way

    Manual signing, inconsistent builds and store rejections slow every release.

    How we do it

    CI/CD with automated signing, reproducible builds and staged rollouts makes shipping routine.

  3. The usual way

    Crashes, freezes and drop-offs are found by users, not by dashboards.

    How we do it

    Crash analytics, drop-off funnels, feature flags and rollback paths, so problems surface early.

Architecture

How it's
put together

Each layer has a clear job, so the system is easier to secure, test and extend.

  1. Layer 01

    UI shell

    Design system components, navigation, accessibility and consistent interaction patterns.

    • UI system
    • Navigation
    • Accessibility
    • Gestures
  2. Layer 02

    State and data

    Predictable state handling, caching and on-device storage, so screens load from local data and sync in the background.

    • State management
    • Caching
    • Offline queues
    • Sync
  3. Layer 03

    Device layer

    Secure storage, biometrics, certificate pinning and camera and location access, with careful permissions.

    • Keychain
    • Keystore
    • Biometrics
    • Certificate pinning
    • Permissions
  4. Layer 04

    Monitoring and releases

    Crash analytics, performance traces, feature flags and staged rollouts with safe rollback.

    • Crash analytics
    • Performance traces
    • Feature flags
    • Staged rollouts

How we deliver

From first review
to live in production

4 phases, each ending with an output you can review.

  1. Step 1: Product and architecture review

    We agree performance targets, the devices to test on, how releases will roll out and how success will be measured.

    Output: Native feasibility blueprint

  2. Step 2: Build and integrate

    We build the app in modules, with its UI components, offline storage and API connections.

    Output: Working native baseline

  3. Step 3: Hardening and security

    We secure sign-in, tighten permissions, profile performance and add checks that stop it slipping in later releases.

    Output: Release-ready app

  4. Step 4: Ship, observe and improve

    We release in stages with crash analytics, monitoring and rollback paths, then keep improving the app.

    Output: Monitored releases

Your team

Who works
on it

Specialists join your squad for this work, alongside a delivery lead who keeps you updated.

  • Mobile architect

    Designs the app's modules, UI system, state handling and integration boundaries, so it stays easy to extend.

    • Modules
    • State management
    • UI system
  • Mobile QA and automation engineer

    Tests on a range of real devices, automates the tests and blocks releases that break existing features.

    • Device matrix
    • Test automation
    • Release gates
  • Release engineer

    Automates builds, signing, store submissions and staged rollouts for predictable releases and fast rollback.

    • CI/CD
    • Code signing
    • Staged rollouts
  • Mobile operations lead

    Looks after monitoring, crash tracking, performance and funnel analytics, so you can improve with confidence.

    • Crash tracking
    • Performance
    • Funnels

Trust and control

Safe by design,
not by policy alone

  • Regression gates and rollback

    Performance targets, automated tests, staged rollouts and safe rollback paths on every release.

  • Secure storage and sessions

    Keychain and Keystore storage, careful token handling and secure authentication.

  • Monitoring for every version

    Crash analytics, performance traces and release visibility for each app version.

You keep full ownership of the code, configuration and documentation we create, with no vendor lock-in.

Book a call

Choose native Swift and Kotlin when the app relies on the camera, sensors, AR, heavy on-device processing or the smoothest possible performance. A single React Native or Flutter codebase suits many other apps and means one codebase to maintain. We can review your feature list and recommend the approach that fits.
