React Native is a useful starting point for many apps. It uses one codebase for iOS and Android, renders each platform’s own interface components and lets web developers contribute. Some logic can also be shared with a React website. We use native modules where the app needs them, and choose a native build when deep device features call for it.

Flutter is another cross-platform option. It uses Dart and draws its own interface, which suits a heavily branded product where you want screens to look identical across platforms. The trade-off is that your team needs to be willing to work in Dart. That choice affects who can maintain and extend the app later.

A progressive web app can suit an internal staff tool and avoids store review. It will not appear in the app stores unless it is packaged for them. On iPhone, it can ask to send notifications only after the user adds it to the Home Screen. Decide how staff will access the tool and whether store distribution or notifications are part of the job before choosing this route.

For an e-commerce checkout, mada cards can be used for online payments through 3D Secure. We plan the checkout and payment-provider connection around the cards you want to accept, including the 3D Secure step. The payment route also depends on what you sell: Apple requires in-app purchase for digital content and subscriptions used in the app, while physical goods and services used outside it need another payment method.

On Google Play, digital goods and subscriptions sold in the app generally use Google Play billing. Physical goods and services, such as groceries or transport, must use another payment route. We establish that distinction in the checkout scope before building the payment flow.

Bring these details so we can discuss the first release and the systems around it.

• List the tasks users must complete in the first release, in the order they will do them.
• Note the website, CRM, booking system or payment provider involved, whether each has an API and who holds admin access.
• Start registering your developer accounts in the company’s name; organisation verification needs a D-U-N-S number.
• Prepare a privacy policy that reflects the data the app collects, for its store listing and the app itself.
• Plan to keep the code repository and signing access in your business’s name.

  Forcing registration too early

  Let people see useful parts of the app before asking them to sign up when the product does not need significant account-based features.

• !

  Asking for notifications on first launch

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

• !

  Adding tracking without updating store disclosures

  Check the data collected by analytics and advertising SDKs against Google Play’s Data safety form whenever those tools change.
