Mobile apps, shipped and supported

Flutter, React Native and native iOS/Android — shipped through the stores, instrumented, and supported after release.

Softrear builds and ships production mobile apps in Flutter, React Native and native iOS/Android, including store submission, crash and performance instrumentation, and post-release support. The same team owns the API the app talks to.

Scope your projectSee the work

Who this is for

  • Your app store rating is falling and you cannot tell which release caused it.
  • You need one codebase across iOS and Android without giving up native feel.
  • Your app team and your backend team are different vendors, and it shows.

What you get

Deliverables, not adjectives.

01

Cross-platform or native, argued not assumed

We write down why the choice fits your case — team, budget, hardware access, animation demands — before we open an editor.

02

Offline-first where it matters

Field, logistics and finance apps have to work with no signal for a full shift and reconcile without duplicating records. That is architecture, not a feature flag.

03

Store submission and release management

Signing, provisioning, phased rollout, review responses. We have been through the rejections.

04

Crash, ANR and performance instrumentation

From day one, not after the first bad review. Startup time, frame drops and cold-start budgets tracked per release.

05

Device-matrix testing

Including the cheap Android hardware your customers actually use, not just the newest flagship.

How it runs

  1. Architecture and platform decision, written down and defended
  2. A walking skeleton in the stores within the first month — real signing, real pipeline
  3. Two-week increments, each installable on a real device
  4. Post-release: crash budget, rating watch, and a support SLA

Tools & standards

  • Flutter
  • React Native
  • Swift / SwiftUI
  • Kotlin / Compose
  • Fastlane
  • Firebase Crashlytics
  • Sentry

We choose per project and write down why. A stack chosen because it is what the last team knew is a stack nobody can defend at review.

Questions we get asked

Flutter or native?

Flutter when one team must serve both platforms and the UI is bespoke. Native when you need deep platform integration, heavy background processing or the last 5% of polish. We will tell you which case you are in, and we have talked clients out of cross-platform before.

Can you take over an app someone else built?

Yes. We start with a two-week audit: build reproducibility, dependency health, test coverage, crash rate and the release process. You get that report whether or not you continue with us.

The rest of the stack

01

Product design

Research, flows, a design system your engineers can actually build against — not a Figma file that dies at handover.

 03

Backend & APIs

Domain modelling, event architecture, contract-tested APIs, and the unglamorous migration off the system you cannot turn off.

 04

Web frontend

Marketing sites, dashboards and customer portals built for Core Web Vitals, accessibility and the person maintaining it next year.

 05

Cloud & DevOps

Infrastructure as code, SLOs that mean something, a real on-call rotation, and a quarterly review of what it all costs.

 06

Managed support

SLA-backed support for systems we built and systems we inherited, with the metrics published to you monthly.
