Mobile App Development

Mobile apps for real businesses.
Fixed prices from R5,000 to R45,000. No hidden fees, no lock-in.

Whether you need a simple app-like website (PWA) or a full native app on the App Store and Play Store, we build it with a single codebase using Expo and React Native. You get both platforms for the price of one — and you own the source code forever.

Two approaches, different budgets. Pick the one that fits your business — or tell us about your project and we'll recommend the best path forward.

Why we use Expo + React Native

We build cross-platform apps with Expo and React Native — the most widely-used framework for building real native apps from a single codebase. Here's why it matters for your business:

One codebase, two stores

We write the code once and it compiles to real native apps for both iOS and Android. Same design, same features — both stores. You pay once, not twice.

Over-the-air updates

Need to fix a bug or tweak the UI? We push updates directly to your users' phones without going through app store review. No waiting days for approval.

Full native access

Camera, GPS, Bluetooth, push notifications, biometric authentication — if the phone can do it, your app can do it. No compromises on features.

How it compares

Expo + React Native— Our recommendation for most businesses

One codebase, both platforms, real native performance. Ships to the App Store and Play Store. Supports over-the-air updates. Costs roughly half of building two separate native apps.

Separate native apps (Swift + Kotlin)

Two separate codebases — one for iOS, one for Android. Only necessary for advanced AR, 3D rendering, or specialised hardware integration. Typically 2x the cost and timeline of cross-platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Expo + React Native instead of building two native apps?

Building separate iOS and Android apps means paying for two codebases, two design systems, and double the maintenance. With Expo + React Native, we write the code once and it runs on both platforms. You get a real app on both stores for roughly half the cost. For 99% of businesses, the performance difference is unnoticeable.

What's the difference between a PWA and a cross-platform app?

A PWA is a website that behaves like an app — users can add it to their home screen, it works offline, and it sends push notifications. It doesn't go through the App Store or Play Store. A cross-platform app (Expo + React Native) is a real native app distributed through the stores, with full access to device hardware like the camera, GPS, and Bluetooth. PWAs are cheaper and faster to launch; native apps are better when you need deep device integration.

Can my app work without internet access?

Yes. Every app we build can cache data locally and function offline when needed — critical for areas with poor connectivity like many parts of rural South Africa. Data syncs automatically when the connection is restored.

How do in-app purchases and payments work?

We integrate your own payment processor (Paystack, Stripe, or Flutterwave) directly into the app. You keep control over fees — typically around 2% per transaction instead of Apple or Google's standard 15–30%. You get paid into your own bank account, not through an intermediary.

What happens after the app is built?

We hand over the full source code — you own it completely. We also offer ongoing maintenance plans that cover bug fixes, OS updates, and new features as your business grows. You're never locked in.

Do you build for both iPhone and Android?

Yes. Every cross-platform app ships to both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. We also handle the submission process and help you get approved. PWAs are published directly on your own domain — no store approval needed.
