Cross-platform iOS and Android with React Native
Cross-platform iOS and Android using React Native — one codebase, native performance.
Start a projectBuilding separate native apps for iOS and Android roughly doubles engineering cost and keeps two codebases in sync forever. React Native gives us one codebase that compiles to genuinely native UI components on both platforms — not a WebView wrapped in an app icon.
That distinction matters: native performance, native gestures, and access to platform APIs (camera, location, push notifications, background tasks) without the compromises that hybrid WebView frameworks carry. Business logic, state management, and most of the UI are shared, while platform-specific behaviour is handled where it needs to be.
We've shipped this approach on real production apps, including an offline-capable field application for livestock operations — where unreliable connectivity in the field made offline-first architecture a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have.
- React Native iOS and Android applications
- Offline-first architecture and background sync
- Push notifications, location, camera, and hardware integrations
- App Store and Google Play submission
- 1Step 1
Define the platform requirements
We identify what needs to be genuinely native (camera, location, offline behaviour, hardware) versus what can be shared UI, since that shapes the architecture from the start.
- 2Step 2
Build the shared core
Business logic, state management, and most UI components are built once and shared across iOS and Android, with platform-specific branches only where the platforms genuinely differ.
- 3Step 3
Test on real devices
Simulators miss real-world issues — camera behaviour, GPS accuracy, background sync under poor connectivity. We test on physical devices before calling a feature done.
- 4Step 4
Submit and support
We handle App Store and Google Play submission, including the review requirements each platform has, and stay available for post-launch updates as OS versions change.
