One codebase, both app stores, real users

Why cross-platform (and when not to)

React Native + Expo lets me write your app once and ship it to both the App Store and Google Play from a single codebase. For the vast majority of apps — anything built around content, accounts, commerce, bookings, or learning — that means roughly one build instead of two, one place to fix bugs, and features that land on iOS and Android at the same time. I've spent 20+ years shipping software, and for most founders this is simply the fastest, cheapest way to reach every user. The honest exception: if your app leans on heavy real-time graphics, deep platform-specific hardware, or bleeding-edge OS APIs, native can be the right call — and I'll tell you that up front rather than force the wrong tool.

What you get

• One React Native + Expo codebase shipping to both iOS and Android — same features, same day, on every device.
• Offline-first and sync so the app keeps working with no signal and reconciles cleanly when it's back online.
• In-app purchases and subscriptions wired into both stores, plus push notifications to bring users back.
• Analytics built in from day one, so you can see what real users actually do instead of guessing.
• App Store & Google Play launch handled end to end — builds, store listings, review, and release — with native polish so it doesn't feel like a web page in a wrapper.

How the build works

We start with a short scoping conversation to lock the core flows and agree a fixed price and timeline before any code is written. From there I work in weekly increments — every week you get a working demo you can install on your own phone and click through, not a status update. You always know what's done, what's next, and where the trade-offs are, in plain English. When it's ready, I handle the full launch to both stores, including the store-specific details that trip most builds up.

Who this is for

• Non-technical founders who need both stores covered without hiring separate iOS and Android developers.
• Funded startups that need a credible, store-ready mobile app before the next milestone or raise.
• Established businesses extending a product to mobile, or replacing an aging app, without pulling their team off the roadmap.

Why work with me

I'm a full-stack developer, so I own the whole app — design, front end, back end, and both store launches — not just one slice. This isn't theory: I built aneducation app in React Native + Expo that grew past 200,000 downloads and serves 17,000 active users, with offline support, in-app purchases, and analytics running in production. I'm pragmatic — I ship instead of polishing forever — and I back it with fixed pricing, weekly working demos, and plain-English updates the whole way through.
