Mobile App Development for iOS and Android — End to End in Reading

Native-feeling iOS and Android apps built on React Native, with production-grade backends, App Store submission handled, and post-launch support that doesn't disappear after go-live. in Reading

Most apps fail not because of the idea but because of the gap between launch and the point at which the product actually works for real users. JW Digital builds mobile apps with that gap in mind — properly scoped MVPs that ship faster, full production builds with the integrations and infrastructure they need, and post-launch support that handles OS updates, store policy changes, and the inevitable analytics-driven iteration. We work in React Native with native modules where they genuinely matter, integrate cleanly with Stripe, Firebase, and your existing backend, and deliver builds to TestFlight and Play Console with proper release management from day one.

React Native with Native Modules

A single React Native codebase covers iOS and Android with shared UI and business logic — with native Swift or Kotlin modules added where camera, payments, or platform APIs need real native access.

Backend, APIs & Real-Time Data

Production-ready backends with authentication, push notifications, real-time data sync, and offline-first patterns where connectivity matters — integrated with our database and API development capability.

Performance & Native Feel

60fps animations, optimised list rendering, careful image and font handling, and platform-specific UX patterns so the app feels native on each platform rather than a generic cross-platform compromise.

Store Submission & Release Management

App Store and Google Play submission handled — provisioning profiles, signing, privacy disclosures, store listing copy, and over-the-air updates configured so future releases don't require a full store review.

Why you need Mobile App Development in ReadingJW Digital
Why you need Mobile App Development in Reading

The bottom line

Most apps we are called in to rescue did not fail because of a bad idea. They failed because the launch was treated as the finish line. Dependencies piled up vulnerabilities, the first iOS release after launch broke something nobody noticed, the analytics integration never got wired up properly so nobody knew where users were dropping off, and the original developer disappeared the day after submission. By the time the business looked closely, the app was three OS versions behind, the privacy manifest required by Apple was missing, and the App Store had quietly delisted the listing for non-compliance. in Reading JW Digital builds mobile apps with that reality in mind. We scope properly before development begins so the MVP is genuinely shippable rather than a placeholder for a bigger build. We deliver to TestFlight and Play Console with proper release management from day one — provisioning profiles, signing, privacy manifests, data safety declarations, over-the-air update pipelines, and the store-listing assets your marketing team actually needs. And we offer post-launch retainers that handle OS compatibility testing on every major release, dependency and CVE patching on a defined cadence, crash and performance monitoring with engineer triage, and the analytics-informed iteration that turns a shipped app into a successful one. Mobile app work pairs naturally with the rest of our stack. The backend, APIs, and real-time data layer come from our app API and backend integration and database and API development teams. Design comes from our app UI/UX design team where the existing brand needs translating to mobile. Ongoing maintenance and store compliance comes from our app maintenance and support service. The full stack is built and supported by engineers who talk to each other every day — not handed off across vendors.

Our Process

Our Mobile App Development Process

Scope-clear, platform-aware, and engineered to last beyond launch

  1. 1

    Discovery, Scoping & Platform Decisions

    We understand what the app needs to do, who uses it, and what success looks like. We assess the platform choice — React Native, native iOS/Android, or a mix — based on the integrations, performance requirements, and team profile. The scope is documented in writing with timelines, deliverables, and explicit out-of-scope items before development begins.

  2. 2

    UX, Wireframing & Design System

    User flow mapping, IA decisions, and platform-aware interaction design before pixels are pushed. We produce a Figma design system with components, tokens, and states that maps directly to engineering primitives — so the build matches the design and future iteration costs less than the first round. iOS and Android conventions are respected where they matter.

  3. 3

    Architecture, Stack & Native Module Planning

    React Native with TypeScript by default for shared business logic and UI. Native Swift or Kotlin modules planned where camera, payments, Bluetooth, secure enclave, or platform APIs need real native access. Navigation strategy, state management (React Query, Zustand, or Redux Toolkit), and backend integration patterns documented before implementation.

  4. 4

    Build, Integration & Real-Device Testing

    We build iteratively against the agreed scope with proper Git workflow, CI/CD via EAS Build or GitHub Actions, and a staging environment for stakeholder review. Backend integration, Stripe payments, Firebase push notifications, and third-party SDKs are tested on real devices — not just simulators — across iOS and Android versions you actually support.

  5. 5

    App Store & Play Console Submission

    We handle the submission end-to-end — provisioning profiles, signing certificates, App Store Connect setup, Google Play Console setup, privacy manifests, data safety declarations, App Tracking Transparency disclosures, screenshots, and store listing copy. Over-the-air update pipeline (Expo Updates or CodePush) configured so future small releases don't require a full store review.

  6. 6

    Post-Launch Monitoring, OS Compatibility & Iteration

    Sentry or Firebase Crashlytics configured for crash tracking; P95 cold-start and screen-load tracking; analytics funnel instrumented. Available on retainer for OS major-release compatibility testing, dependency and CVE patching, and analytics-informed feature iteration — see our dedicated app maintenance and support service for ongoing operations.

What's Included in Mobile App Development

End-to-end engineering — scoping, design, build, integration, store submission, and ongoing support

1

Written Scope & Platform Architecture Documentation

Documented scope with timelines, deliverables, and out-of-scope items; written architecture covering platform choice (React Native vs native), navigation, state management, and backend integration patterns — agreed before development begins.

2

Figma Design System & Platform-Aware UX

Figma design system with components, tokens, and states; iOS and Android interaction patterns respected where they matter; accessible touch targets, focus states, and screen-reader semantics built in — not retrofitted after an audit.

3

React Native Build with Native Modules Where Needed

React Native with TypeScript for shared business logic, plus native Swift or Kotlin modules where camera, payments, Bluetooth, secure enclave, or platform APIs need genuine native access. No compromises pretending the JS bridge will do.

4

Backend, Authentication & Real-Time Integration

Backend APIs, OAuth or JWT authentication with refresh-token rotation, push notifications via APNs/FCM, real-time data via WebSocket or Supabase Realtime, and integrations with Stripe, Firebase, and third-party SDKs — production-grade rather than demo-path.

5

App Store & Play Console Submission Handled

Our Pricing

Mobile App Development Pricing

Mobile app pricing scales with feature scope, integration count, backend complexity, and design depth. A focused MVP — single platform target or React Native with limited backend — typically falls between £1,200 and £6,000. A full production app with custom backend, multiple integrations, App Store submission handled, and design system delivered typically falls between £6,000 and £30,000. Multi-tenant or enterprise builds scale from there. We produce a written scope and fixed quote against agreed deliverables — no surprise change orders for work that was always part of the project. Mobile app work pairs naturally with our app API and backend integration, app UI/UX design, app maintenance and support, and database and API development services for end-to-end delivery and ongoing operations.
