Services
Mobile App Development & Rescue
We support consumer and business mobile applications where reliability, maintainability and upgrade paths matter — including apps that have stalled or accumulated debt.
Who it is for
Businesses that depend on mobile in production
Organisations use this service when a mobile app is business-critical but unreliable, expensive to change, or stuck on old dependencies. That includes consumer apps, field-service tools, membership products, and internal apps distributed through enterprise or public stores.
We help when you need senior engineers who understand both product delivery and operational reality — crashes, reviews, device fragmentation, and backend integration — not just screen implementation.
Typical problems
Rescue, performance and release risk
Teams often face rising crash rates, slow release cycles, or fear of touching core modules. Inherited apps may lack tests, observability, or documentation. Store policy changes and OS upgrades can force urgent work that was deferred for years.
We triage production signals first, then stabilise the highest-risk areas before broader refactors. That ordering keeps users protected while engineering velocity recovers.
What is included
From assessment to shippable improvements
Depending on scope, we deliver technical assessments, crash and performance remediation, upgrade planning, feature delivery, and improved CI/CD. We align with your backend and design stakeholders so mobile work fits the wider platform.
We are transparent about rebuild versus modernise trade-offs. We do not recommend a full rewrite unless the business case and risk profile justify it.
Timeline
Typical engagement length.
An app rescue assessment often completes within two to three weeks. Stabilisation sprints frequently run four to eight weeks. New product delivery timelines depend on scope; we break work into phases so you can validate assumptions before scaling spend.
How it works
From discovery call to delivery.
We clarify whether you need rescue, greenfield build, or a technical assessment first. Each phase has agreed outputs — audit report, crash reduction targets, or shippable features — and a clear decision point before continuing.
FAQ
Common questions.
Can you help if our app is not React Native?
Our deepest experience is in React Native and related TypeScript ecosystems. For purely native iOS or Android codebases we may still assist with assessment and leadership, or recommend specialists if another stack is a better fit.
What does an app rescue engagement look like?
We review crashes, release history, dependencies and architecture, then agree a short stabilisation plan with measurable targets — for example crash-free sessions or successful store builds — before larger refactors.
Do you provide ongoing support after launch?
Yes. Many clients retain us for upgrade work, release support, or senior capacity during peak delivery. Support terms are agreed per engagement.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. We routinely work under mutual NDAs before accessing private repositories or commercial details.
