Mobile App Development

Build Mobile Apps That Users Love

Cross-platform and native mobile applications for iOS and Android. From consumer apps to enterprise tools, we build mobile solutions that deliver smooth UX, offline support, and performant architecture.

Mobile-first solutions for modern businesses

Mobile applications are no longer optional—they're essential for reaching customers, improving operations, and staying competitive. Whether you're building a consumer app, an enterprise tool, or a field force solution, mobile development requires careful attention to UX, performance, offline capabilities, and platform-specific conventions.

At Devionary, we build mobile apps using both native technologies (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) and cross-platform frameworks (React Native, Flutter). The choice depends on your requirements: native apps offer maximum performance and platform integration, while cross-platform frameworks enable faster development and shared code between iOS and Android.

Our mobile development approach focuses on three core principles: **user experience first**, **offline-first architecture** when needed, and **maintainable code**. We don't just build apps that work in perfect network conditions—we build apps that handle real-world scenarios like slow networks, interrupted connections, and device limitations.

From authentication flows and push notifications to background sync and biometric security, we handle the complex infrastructure that modern mobile apps require. Our team has shipped apps to both the App Store and Google Play, navigating review processes, compliance requirements, and platform guidelines successfully.

Types of mobile apps we build

From consumer-facing apps to enterprise solutions, we have experience across all major mobile app categories.

Consumer Apps

Social platforms, marketplaces, on-demand services, media apps, and lifestyle tools. Focus on delightful UX, smooth animations, and viral growth mechanics.

Enterprise Apps

Internal tools for sales teams, field technicians, warehouse operations, and remote workers. Prioritize efficiency, reliability, and integration with enterprise systems.

E-commerce Apps

Shopping apps with product catalogs, search, filters, cart, checkout, order tracking, and loyalty programs. Native mobile e-commerce experiences that drive conversions.

FinTech Apps

Banking, payments, investing, expense tracking, and financial planning apps. Built with security-first architecture and compliance with financial regulations.

Health & Fitness Apps

Telemedicine, fitness tracking, nutrition planning, meditation, and wellness apps. Integration with HealthKit, Google Fit, and wearable devices.

Field Force Apps

Apps for delivery drivers, sales reps, service technicians, and remote teams. Offline-first architecture, GPS tracking, photo capture, and real-time sync.

Native vs. Cross-Platform: Choosing the right approach

Cross-Platform (React Native, Flutter)

One codebase for iOS and Android. Faster development, easier maintenance, shared business logic. Perfect for most business apps, MVPs, and projects with limited budgets.

When to choose cross-platform:

  • You need both iOS and Android versions
  • Time-to-market is critical
  • The app is business/CRUD focused
  • You want to share code with web version

Native (Swift, Kotlin)

Platform-specific code for iOS and Android. Maximum performance, full access to platform features, best UX for complex interactions. Required for apps with demanding graphics or hardware integration.

When to choose native:

  • Performance is absolutely critical (gaming, AR/VR)
  • Deep hardware integration needed (Bluetooth, NFC)
  • Platform-specific features are central to UX
  • Targeting only one platform initially

Our recommendation: For most business applications, cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter offer the best balance of development speed, code reusability, and performance. We reserve native development for apps with specific performance or hardware requirements. During discovery, we'll recommend the right approach for your situation.

Push Notifications

Targeted messaging, badge counts, deep linking, rich notifications with images, and analytics to track engagement.

Offline Support

Local data caching, background sync, conflict resolution, queue-based operations that execute when connectivity returns.

Camera & Media

Photo/video capture, image filters, file uploads, gallery integration, and compression for optimal performance.

Location & Maps

GPS tracking, geofencing, route optimization, mapping interfaces, and location-based features with battery efficiency.

In-App Payments

Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay integration. Subscription management and receipt validation.

Analytics & Crash Reporting

User behavior tracking, conversion funnels, crash reports with stack traces, and performance monitoring.

Deep Linking

Universal links (iOS) and App Links (Android) for seamless navigation from web to app and vice versa.
