MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT
Mobile App Development Company Hire App Developers for iOS & Android
Want an app developer for your idea or your business? RafayLabs designs, builds and publishes custom mobile apps for iOS and Android, for startups and businesses anywhere: one React Native codebase for both stores, the backend behind it, and the release on the App Store and Google Play.
WHAT YOU GET
When you hire RafayLabs as your mobile app developers, you get the whole app, not only the screens: everything it needs to go live and take payments.
iOS and Android app
One React Native and Expo codebase for both stores, with native gestures, camera, maps, biometrics and notifications.
Backend and database
Sign-in, your data and an API, built with NestJS or Node.js on PostgreSQL or Firebase.
Payments
Stripe, Apple and Google in-app purchases, RevenueCat subscriptions and mobile wallets such as M-Pesa.
App Store and Google Play release
Developer accounts, TestFlight, privacy manifests, store listings and App Review, through to approval.
Works on a weak connection
Local storage with SQLite, MMKV or WatermelonDB, so the app stays fast and keeps working offline.
Take over an existing app
Code audits, bug fixes, upgrades to the latest Expo SDK and performance work on apps another team started.

FAQS
How do I hire an app developer?
Start with the one problem the app must solve and who will use it. Then look for a developer who has shipped apps like yours to the App Store and Google Play, ask to install something they built, and get a written scope and a fixed quote before any work starts. With RafayLabs you send the idea through the contact form, we have a 15-minute scope call, and you get the written scope and quote before work begins.
How much does it cost to build an app?
It depends on the scope: how many screens and user roles, iOS, Android or both, the backend, and integrations such as payments, maps or AI. A focused first version costs far less than a full product, which is why we quote against a written scope instead of guessing. Store fees are separate: the Apple Developer Program is US$99 per year and a Google Play developer account is US$25, paid once.
How long does it take to develop a mobile app?
A focused MVP typically takes 4 to 6 weeks, with a first installable build in 10 to 14 days. Larger apps are built in stages after the first release.
Can one developer build both the iOS and Android app?
Yes. With React Native, one codebase produces both the iOS and the Android app, so you pay for one build instead of two and every fix ships to both stores.
Do you work with clients in other countries?
Yes. RafayLabs is based in Pakistan and works remotely. The founder has shipped apps for Pakistan, Kenya and a UK company, and works over email, video calls and shared test builds.
Can you take over an app another developer started?
Yes. We audit the code, fix what blocks the release, upgrade old React Native setups to the latest Expo SDK, and continue development from there.
