Mobile App Development
One codebase, native-feel apps on iOS and Android.
Overview
Building and maintaining two separate native codebases slows most teams down without adding real value for the user. We build cross-platform mobile apps that feel native on both iOS and Android, ship from a single codebase, and integrate cleanly with your existing backend and APIs — so you reach both app stores without doubling your development cost.
Our Process
How we take this from brief to launch.
Define
Core user flows and platform requirements scoped before design starts.
Design
Mobile-first UI/UX built around platform conventions users already know.
Build
Cross-platform development with a shared codebase and native modules where needed.
QA
Device and OS-version testing across real hardware, not just simulators.
Ship
Store submission, release management, and post-launch crash monitoring.
What’s Included
Everything covered as part of this engagement.
- Cross-platform apps (iOS & Android)
- Push notifications & real-time data
- Offline-first data sync
- Payment gateway & third-party SDK integration
- App Store & Play Store submission
- Post-launch monitoring and updates
Why It Matters
What you gain with this service.
One codebase, two platforms
Ship to iOS and Android together instead of maintaining two separate teams.
Native performance
Smooth animations and responsive interactions users expect from platform-native apps.
Faster iteration
Shared codebase means new features and fixes reach both platforms at once.
Store-ready delivery
We handle app store submission, review requirements, and release management.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you reach out.
Does Ultraconic build both iOS and Android apps from a single codebase?
Yes — we build cross-platform apps with React Native or Flutter that feel native on both iOS and Android from a single, shared codebase, so new features and fixes reach both platforms at once instead of doubling development effort.
What is the cost of mobile app development for a startup?
It depends on the number of screens, backend complexity, and integrations your app needs. We scope MVP-stage apps down to the core features that prove your idea, then provide a fixed estimate during discovery rather than a generic price range.
How long does it take to develop and launch a mobile app?
A focused MVP can typically launch in 8-12 weeks, while apps with more complex features, integrations, or offline sync take longer. Exact timelines depend on scope, which we define precisely before development starts.
Does Ultraconic help publish apps on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store?
Yes — we manage the full submission process, including store listing assets, compliance requirements, and handling review resubmissions if the store flags anything, so the app actually reaches your users.
What is the difference between native and cross-platform mobile app development?
Native apps are built separately for iOS and Android using platform-specific languages, giving maximum performance at double the development cost. Cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter share one codebase across both platforms — we recommend fully native only for apps with heavy hardware-specific requirements.
Can an existing website be turned into a mobile app?
Often, yes — if your website already has a solid backend and API, we can build native mobile apps that reuse that data layer instead of rebuilding it, which is usually faster than starting from zero.
