React Native for React teams

React Native when your web team should own mobile too

Design Dev builds React Native when your web product team should own mobile. We still treat stores, permissions and native modules as real work — OTA updates are not a substitute for review-safe releases.As a London mobile app development company we take you from ideation to dual-store launch: navigation that feels like an app, native modules listed early, and a shared API with your React website where that is honest.
01

React Native App Development

Cross-platform apps for teams already in React — both stores, one JS product language.

02

Native Modules

Camera, maps, payments and the bits React Native should not fake — listed in the plan.
Native Modules
03

Expo or Bare — Chosen Honestly

Expo when it fits; bare when an SDK blocks a managed workflow. We will not trap you.
Expo or Bare — Chosen Honestly
04

Store-safe Releases

EAS, TestFlight, Play internals and an OTA policy that does not violate review rules.
Store-safe Releases

Our work process — from React skills to store binaries

01

Fit vs Flutter vs Native

Hiring and required native SDKs decide more than hype. We write the recommendation down.

02

Navigation & Native Look

Not a WebView in a trench coat. Prototypes cover iOS gestures and Android back.

03

React Native Development

Slices with EAS/TestFlight/Play. Shared types with web where it is honest — not 90% UI share.

04

Native Gap List

What we write in Swift/Kotlin. Performance on lists. Push on APNs and FCM.

05

Dual Release

Versioning both binaries. OTA policy written down. Store listings as two jobs.

React Native is a team strategy, not a free iOS app

React Native is a team strategy, not a free iOS app

If you have no React developers, Flutter or native may be cheaper. If you do, React Native can keep one product language across web and mobile. Store hygiene and native modules still exist.Design Dev ships React Native with a native-module budget, CI for both binaries and upgrades planned — React Native versions bite.

  • Honest team fit before the first screen
  • Navigation that feels like an app
  • Native modules listed early
  • CI for iOS and Android binaries
  • Crash tools on both stores
  • Upgrade path as RN versions move
  • Store-compliant OTA policy
  • Shared API with the React website

Updates that stay inside store rules.

Push & Deep Links

APNs, FCM, universal links and App Links.

10

API with the Web Product

Shared contracts and types — not a second backend by accident.

11

Major versions as a real line item.

12

Takeover & Untangle

Audit and recover a rushed Expo app.

Strategy, design and engineering for brands that need a website that performs.

01

Product before pixels

Journeys, store rules and backend are planned with the app — not after a demo build.

02

Platform choice that fits

Native, Flutter, React Native or PWA is a commercial decision, not a trend.

03

Store-ready delivery

Listings, review, performance and QA on real devices — not a one-off APK email.

04

Support after launch

OS updates, crashes and iteration once real users arrive.
