Native, React Native or web app — what should you build?
The decision is more practical than tribal. React Native gives you both stores from one codebase at roughly two-thirds the cost of building twice — it's our default for most business and consumer apps. Fully native earns its premium when you push hardware hard: intensive graphics, advanced camera work, tight OS integration. And sometimes the honest answer is a progressive web app — no stores at all — when installability matters less than reach.
The bigger risk isn't choosing the wrong framework; it's underestimating everything around the app: the backend, push notifications, offline sync, store review, and the release rhythm that keeps ratings healthy. That operational side is where apps die quietly — and where an experienced team pays for itself. Tell us what you're planning and we'll recommend the right approach, even if it's the cheaper one.

The right tool for each platform.
They told us upfront a cross-platform build would save us six figures over separate native apps — then shipped something our customers rate 4.8 stars. The honesty was worth as much as the code.
Mobile App Development — Frequently Asked Questions
A focused single-purpose app typically runs NZ$50k–$120k including backend and store launch. Feature-rich consumer apps with accounts, payments and integrations run NZ$120k–$300k+. React Native usually delivers both platforms for roughly two-thirds the cost of building each natively. We quote fixed and written after scoping.
React Native is the right default for most apps: one codebase, both stores, native-feel performance and faster iteration. Go fully native when you depend on intensive graphics, heavy hardware access or the last few percent of performance. We build both, so the recommendation follows your app's actual demands.
Most apps go from kickoff to app-store launch in 3–5 months: design and prototype first, then fortnightly builds you can install and test, then store review and release. We handle Apple and Google review — including the rejections-and-resubmission dance — as part of every project.
Yes — store listings, screenshots, review compliance, phased rollouts and ongoing releases for both stores. Post-launch we monitor crashes and analytics, and most clients keep us on a release retainer so the app keeps improving instead of quietly rotting.
Usually, yes — and it's the most cost-effective path. We build mobile apps on top of existing web APIs, extending them with mobile-specific needs like push notifications, offline sync and biometric login. One backend, every screen.
