Nine years shipping mobile apps that don't feel like web apps in a wrapper. Our mobile app development services cover React Native, Flutter, and native Swift and Kotlin — with the judgment to know which one your product actually needs, and the architecture to make it hold up after the first version ships.
Why Entalogics for mobile
Most cross-platform apps we inherit from other mobile development companies have the same four problems — janky scroll performance nobody profiled, navigation that fights the platform, a state layer that re-renders the entire screen on every keystroke, and no OTA update strategy. We fix the architecture before the app store reviews do.
Render cycles profiled from day one. FlatList virtualisation, memoised components, native driver animations. A dropped frame or a sluggish list isn't a visual issue — it's a one-star review on the App Store or Play Store.
Each feature in a mobile app development project owns its screens, hooks, types, and tests. Navigation is typed. Shared components live in a design system package. Two engineers work on two features without merge conflicts eating the sprint.
TanStack Query for server data. Zustand or Jotai for local UI state. Deep link state handled by the router. Less global state means fewer re-renders, faster screens, and a codebase the next mobile developer can actually read.
Zod-validated API responses, typed navigation params, typed design tokens. When the backend changes a field, the mobile app fails to compile — not to render in a real user's hand.
When cross-platform, when native
React Native, Flutter, or native iOS and Android — each has a real trade-off. We'll tell you on the first call which one fits your product, your team, and your timeline. No framework loyalty.

What we build for mobile
The shapes of mobile app development we ship most — built for the App Store and Google Play, not a demo running on the engineer's phone.
Onboarding flows, push notifications, in-app purchases, analytics — the full consumer mobile stack polished to pass App Store and Play Store review on the first submission.
Your web dashboard, in your user's pocket. Offline-first sync, biometric auth, push notifications tied to backend events.
Product browse, cart, checkout, order tracking — native-feel scroll performance on product lists with hundreds of SKUs, not a mobile web page wearing an app icon.
Barcode scanning, offline data collection, GPS tracking, photo capture — native iOS and Android tools for teams working outside the office.
Pixel-perfect brand experiences where every animation, transition, and micro-interaction is custom. Flutter's GPU rendering earns its place here.
Swift or Kotlin modules for Bluetooth, ARKit, camera, or codec work — integrated into a cross-platform shell or shipped as standalone native iOS and Android apps.
The playbook
Proven in production mobile apps — not conference demo projects.
P01
Expo managed workflow by default, EAS Build for cloud compilation, EAS Update for OTA patches that skip app store review. Eject to bare only when a native module genuinely demands it.
P02
Every route, every param, typed end-to-end. A screen refactor that changes a param type fails the build — not the QA pass three days and one App Store rejection later.
P03
Cache-first, background refetch, optimistic updates. No manual loading/error/success state spread across every mobile screen. Data shows instantly from cache and refreshes silently.
P04
Colour, spacing, and typography as code — shared between iOS and Android. Light/dark mode, dynamic type, and brand variants from one token source, not two.
P05
Real device end-to-end tests on critical user flows — onboarding, purchase, deep link. Catches the regression a unit test can't, before App Store review does.
P06
EAS Update for React Native, Shorebird for Flutter. Push a fix to production without waiting for App Store or Play Store review. Rollback if the update degrades a metric.
Signature case
A B2C fintech app wrapped in a WebView — 4.2s cold start, 3.1-star average rating, scroll jank on every list, and push notifications that arrived 30 seconds late because the WebView had to wake up first. Rebuilt in React Native with Expo, TanStack Query, and native push in 10 weeks. Rating climbed to 4.7 within two months.
Before
Cold start 4.2s · rating 3.1★ · WebView scroll jank · push delay 30s · no OTA updates
After
Cold start 1.1s · rating 4.7★ · native FlatList at 60fps · instant push · EAS OTA live
Engagement shape
A typical mobile app development engagement, end-to-end. Screen by screen — never a six-month big bang. The current app stays live the entire time we work.
Two senior mobile developers on the project. Render profiling, navigation audit, state architecture review. A ranked, dollarized RFC — not a generic mobile app development proposal.
Expo or Flutter baseline, design tokens established, typed navigation wired in, one production screen built end-to-end. Real performance numbers on a physical device, not a simulator.
Feature by feature under feature flags. TestFlight and internal Play Store track releases weekly. Your roadmap keeps moving throughout.
Store assets, review guideline compliance, first submission to both stores. App Store review typically takes 1–2 business days. Runbook handed to your team — or we stay on retainer.
Stack
Picked for production mobile — not tutorial starters.
Engagement
No hourly retainer billing for "thinking time." Every path is fixed-quote or transparently rated.
One product, scoped and priced once, built entirely by senior mobile developers. RFC to App Store submission in 8–14 weeks.
FIXED SCOPE
A pod of senior mobile app developers embedded in your Slack, your Linear, your standups. Resize or pause with 30 days' notice.
PER ENGINEER
For product orgs that need more than delivery — a long-term mobile development partner: cross-platform architecture, a performance program, hiring help.
PROCUREMENT-FRIENDLY
Founder-direct
Thirty minutes with the founder — a senior mobile app developer, the relevant playbook, and a candid read on whether React Native, Flutter, or native is right for your product.
