Mobile app development company in Mumbai for Android apps

Choose a native Android app when Android is the platform you need to serve. If an iPhone app is also part of your plan, React Native or Flutter lets the platforms share most of their code. A native Kotlin module can cover a feature the chosen framework does not provide. We build either type and test it on the devices your users have. The choice starts with your users and the features they need, so it is worth discussing both before settling on a platform.

For an app used only by your own staff, the release method is another decision. Managed Google Play allows a private app that only your organisation can install. That suits a product intended for employees' devices without making it available through a public store listing. Bring the intended users and their tasks to the discussion; the audience affects both the app and how it reaches them.

We start by learning about your business, audience and goals. Then we agree the scope with you, including the platform and the work needed for the people who will use it.

If your checkout aggregates customer payments for merchants, a non-bank payment aggregator needs authorisation. We set up the checkout with an authorised provider such as Razorpay or Cashfree Payments. We also need to establish what the customer is buying: that determines which payment flow belongs in the app.

For digital goods and subscriptions sold in the app, we set up Google Play billing. Physical goods and services, such as groceries or transport, use a different payment flow; Google Play billing must not be used for those purchases.

For a Google Play organisation account, start gathering the D-U-N-S number and the organisation's name, address, phone number and website.

• List the phones and tablets your customers or staff use, drawing on analytics or a quick survey.
• For printers, scanners or terminals, provide exact models, SDKs or documentation, and a unit for testing.
• Bring your privacy policy and a list of personal data the app will collect and share.
• If reviewers need to sign in, prepare reusable details that work from any location without a one-time code.
• Check which Android versions your users have through website analytics or a short survey.

  Asking for notifications too soon

  On Android 13 and later, notifications stay off until the user allows them. Ask when the benefit is clear, such as after an order.

  Requesting unnecessary permissions

  Extra requests can raise review questions and put users off. Ask for each permission when the person first uses the feature that needs it.

  Ignoring storage and memory

  Large downloads and heavy memory use can lose users on budget phones. Keep the download small and test on a low-end device.
