Seen in Hiki
Native iOS and Android, for peak performance
Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, when the experience is performance-critical. Hiki for Android is native Kotlin with Jetpack Compose; its iOS app, in SwiftUI, is on the way.
S.01 / Service
Mobile app development
We build mobile apps for founders and product teams: native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin), or React Native and Flutter when one shared codebase fits better. Hiki for Android, our manga discovery app, is built in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose and live on Google Play. One team takes the app from architecture to the store and keeps improving it after launch.

01 / What you get
Native or cross-platform.
What every mobile app we take on comes with, from the first architecture decision to the App Store and Google Play.
Cross-platform
One shared codebase, native feel
React Native or Flutter when one shared codebase fits the product better.
Seen in Hiki
Everything from architecture to the store
One team designs, builds, releases and maintains the app. Hiki for Android shares the web app’s back end and Firebase project, and we publish it on Google Play ourselves.

04 / How an engagement runs
From brief to live.
We don’t do proofs of concept. We build the real thing from day one, with you in the loop.
Step 01
Days
Discover
A short, focused discovery. We define the problem and the first release. Days, not months.
Step 02
Iterative
Build
Design and engineering together. Working software from the start, with you in the loop.
Step 03
Release
Launch
Deploy, test and release. The real product, in the hands of the people who need it.
Step 04
Ongoing
Scale
Scale what works. Maintain, measure and improve as your product and team grow.

Do you build native or cross-platform apps?
Both. Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) for performance-critical experiences; React Native or Flutter when one shared codebase fits better. We pick the right tool for the job, not the trendiest one.
Have you shipped a mobile app?
Yes. Hiki for Android, our manga discovery app, is live on Google Play: a native Kotlin app built with Jetpack Compose, on the same back end as the hiki.world web app. Its iOS app, in SwiftUI, is on the way.
Do you handle the App Store and Google Play release?
Yes. We cover everything from architecture to the store, as we did for Hiki for Android on Google Play. After launch we maintain, measure and improve the app as your product and team grow.
Who designs the app?
The team that builds it. UX and UI come from the same people who build, launch and maintain your product, so nothing gets lost in a handoff.
