You don't need another React developer dabbling in mobile. You need a React Native engineer who's shipped apps through App Review, written TurboModules in Swift and Kotlin, built offline-first sync that survives airplane mode, passed Google Play's data-safety form without dark patterns, and got your release cadence from quarterly to weekly. That's what we do.

Six engagements shipped across consumer, B2B and regulated-industry apps in the last twelve months.
Full-stack RN apps with Expo + EAS, Supabase / Firebase / custom NestJS backend, Stripe / RevenueCat IAP, Expo Notifications + FCM push, Sentry crash reporting, Expo Updates OTA, and dual-store submission. Typical path: 0 → Play Store beta in 4 weeks.
WatermelonDB / MMKV + PowerSync or Electric for bi-directional CRDT sync. Apps that work on airplanes, rigs and remote sites — field engineers capture data offline, devices sync when a signal appears, conflicts resolve deterministically. Retail, logistics, utilities.
Brownfield migrations from Swift / Objective-C and Kotlin / Java to React Native screen-by-screen. Shared navigation shell, gradual adoption, feature-flag rollout, telemetry parity with the native baseline, and zero-downtime transition for live user bases in the millions.
0.6x → latest upgrades including Fabric / TurboModule migration, Hermes adoption, bundle-size reduction, navigation replacement (React Navigation 7), and state-management modernisation (Redux → Zustand / Jotai / TanStack). Usually 4–8 weeks with regression packs.
EAS Build + EAS Submit or Fastlane pipelines, code-signing automation, environment-scoped builds (dev / staging / prod), App Store Connect / Play Console API integration, phased rollouts with crash-rate gating, and store listing A/B tests via Apple's Product Page Optimization and Play's store listing experiments.
Apps distributed via MDM (Intune, Jamf, Kandji), SAML / OIDC SSO via Auth0 or Entra External ID, device-attestation and jailbreak detection, certificate pinning, biometric unlock, and SOC 2 / HIPAA / GDPR-aligned logging. Shipped to regulated industries without audit findings.
Production depth across the core RN ecosystem, native bridges, and the tooling that ships apps to both stores.
Every project starts with a free 5-day prototype — you see 3–5 screens of your app running on physical devices before signing an SOW.
30-minute scoping call. We map your app idea or current codebase, target platforms (iOS / Android / iPad / Web), backend, distribution (public stores / MDM), and design assets. Pull 1–2 senior developers.
Working prototype on EAS Build — 3–5 screens of your app, navigation shell, state management, basic backend wiring, physical device testing. Ends with a 30-minute walkthrough and a code handover.
Fixed-scope or dedicated-developer model. Daily standups in your Slack / Discord / Teams, PR-based workflow in your repo, internal TestFlight / Play Internal builds on every merge, crash monitoring wired from day one.
App Store + Play submission, phased rollout, crash-rate gating, store-listing A/B tests, OTA release discipline, and a 30-day post-launch hypercare window with hot-fix SLAs.
Three engagement models. No store-submission markup, no platform retainer, no minimum term beyond the current sprint.

Embed a senior RN developer in your team. Best when scope evolves or you need ongoing mobile engineering.
We're not a web dev shop claiming mobile. Every engineer on the bench has shipped to production stores and knows what App Review actually flags.
Every developer writes a TurboModule + navigation flow + offline-first store during interview. No theory-only screening.
We'd rather hand you a working EAS build than a pitch deck. If the prototype isn't great, no invoice.
EAS Update, phased rollouts, crash-rate gating and a weekly release cadence — not surprise quarterly drops.
We'll tell you when Expo is enough and bare RN is overkill — or when Flutter actually fits better. Fit tool to job.
For most product-grade mobile apps, React Native ships the same features 40–60% faster at similar quality, because you reuse one codebase, one TypeScript type system, one set of business logic, and one team. You still get native performance for screens that need it (via native modules or the New Architecture). You pay the native-engineer premium only for the 5–10% of screens that justify it. The only time you should hire separate native teams is when you're shipping heavy graphics, AR, or low-level device work that needs platform-specific tooling throughout.
Both, and we pick based on the app. Expo (with EAS Build and EAS Submit) is our default — it shortens release cycles, simplifies OTA updates via EAS Update, and lets smaller teams ship without owning the native build toolchain. Bare React Native for apps with deep native module dependencies, heavy customisation of native code, or strict corporate build-system constraints. We'll tell you which fits and migrate you between the two if the app grows out of Expo or simplifies into it.
Yes. Every new project starts on the New Architecture. Fabric renderer for concurrent rendering and better interop with the React tree, TurboModules for lazy-loaded native bindings, Codegen for type-safe JS ↔ native interface, and Hermes as the default JS engine. We also migrate legacy React Native apps to the New Arch — it's usually a 4–8 week effort depending on custom native module count.
Yes. When a React Native app needs BLE, CoreNFC, CoreML, CameraX, MLKit, or any platform SDK without a maintained bridge, we write the native module ourselves — Swift on iOS, Kotlin on Android — with Codegen-based TurboModule interfaces so the JS side is fully typed. We also contribute back to the community where the module is generally useful.
Yes. We set up EAS Submit pipelines or Fastlane for both stores, handle code signing (Apple certs + provisioning profiles, Android keystore) with secrets rotated via your secret manager, write App Store and Play listing metadata, screenshots and video previews, manage phased rollouts and crash-rate monitoring, and respond to App Review rejections. For enterprise distribution we also support Apple Business Manager / MDM deployment and Firebase App Distribution internal builds.
Dedicated developer from $20/hr (offshore senior) to $90/hr (US lead). A greenfield MVP (auth, onboarding, 8–12 screens, offline-first, push, basic analytics) is typically fixed-price $25K–$90K over 6–14 weeks. Feature additions to an existing app run $8K–$40K depending on scope. Every engagement starts with a free 5-day prototype — we ship a working 3–5 screen prototype of your app so you see code before signing.
Yes. Offline-first is our default architecture for mobile. WatermelonDB or MMKV for local storage, TanStack Query (or SWR) for server-state, TanStack Sync for bi-directional sync, PowerSync / Electric / ObjectBox for CRDT-backed sync when conflict resolution is complex. We handle the hard parts — conflict semantics, retry/backoff, upload queues, background sync, and network-state-aware UX.
Brief us on your app. We'll match a senior React Native developer in 24 hours and ship a working prototype on physical devices by end of the week — free.
