Do you build native or cross-platform apps?

Cross-platform, with React Native — one codebase that produces genuinely native iOS and Android apps. For the vast majority of products that’s the right call: the same quality as native, at a fraction of the cost and time. If your app truly needs platform-specific native work, I’ll tell you.

Which platforms do you cover?

Both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play), from the same codebase, launching together. I handle store submission and the review process for both.

How much does a mobile app cost?

Most first versions land between £1000 and £8000 depending on scope. After a free scoping call you get a fixed written estimate — no open-ended day rates.

What technology do you use to build?

React Native and Expo with TypeScript, plus Node.js or Firebase on the backend as needed. If you want the technical detail, see my React Native development and Expo pages.

Mobile apps

Mobile app development (UK)

Want a mobile app but don’t much care what it’s built with? That’s the right instinct — you should care about a fast, native-quality app on both iOS and Android, shipped on time and easy to grow. The tech is my job.

I’m a Manchester-based mobile app developer, and I build for both platforms from a single React Native codebase — so you get iOS and Android together, at roughly half the cost and time of running two separate native teams.

What you get

iOS and Android, one codebase

Native-quality apps for both platforms from a single React Native codebase — one team, one timeline, one budget, launching together.

Design through to store

UX, UI, build, payments, push and the App Store / Google Play submission — the whole journey from idea to live download.

MVP to full product

Start with a focused first version to validate and raise on, then grow it feature by feature as the product finds its feet.

Rescue & maintenance

Take over a slow, crashing or abandoned app, stabilise it, and keep shipping — no full rebuild required in most cases.

The apps behind the words

Every one of these is live in both stores. Read how they were built:
