Who is a mobile developer?

A mobile app developer is a specialist who designs, develops, and maintains software for smartphones and tablets. This profession requires a deep understanding not only of programming languages but also of architectural patterns, UI/UX principles, and the hardware and software specifics of specific platforms.

What does a mobile app developer do?

A mobile developer's responsibilities extend far beyond coding. Our specialists handle the full technical cycle, from design to support and optimization, ensuring high-quality product performance.

Requirements Analysis and Design

At the initial stage, a mobile app developer for Android and iOS products works with business analysts and designers, who define the functional and non-functional requirements for the project. They create the architecture, selecting appropriate patterns to ensure scalability and maintainability of the code. This approach allows for the interaction between modules and the database to be carefully considered in advance, as well as integration with external services.

Development and implementation

The developer's primary responsibility is writing clean, efficient, and documented code, which includes implementing the user interface (UI) based on a pre-existing design, integrating with backend services via API, and implementing business logic. This process requires ensuring the application's functionality fully aligns with business goals and is user-friendly.

Code optimization

Based on the results of unit, integration, and UI testing, the developer fixes errors, collaborating with QA engineers to debug and optimize performance. This allows for the creation of a stable application that functions correctly across various devices and operating system versions.

Support and publication

After release, the mobile app developer provides technical support: releasing updates, adding new features, and adapting the product to user and platform requirements. If necessary, the app is published in the App Store or Google Play, including preparing certificates and metadata. Optimization continues on an ongoing basis - this is the key to stable operation and high user ratings.

How to choose a mobile app developer

Mobile app development is divided into two key areas: native and cross-platform. The choice of specialist and approach depends on business goals, budget, and functional requirements. For example, we developed Rubicon Wallet, a native mobile app for iOS and Android devices, using Swift and Kotlin. Synchronization with blockchain networks via API integrations ensures up-to-date exchange rates, transaction visibility, and transfer execution, while transaction confirmation with a PIN or biometrics ensures security. If you need to launch a similar product faster and with an optimal budget, we can implement it in Flutter, offering a unified codebase, high performance, and a modern interface for both platforms.

Hire iOS app developers

Mobile app development for iPhone and iPad uses the Swift language and tools like Xcode, as well as Apple frameworks UIKit and SwiftUI. Native iOS apps are compiled to machine code, ensuring high performance and deep integration with Apple device features. Therefore, when choosing this approach, we recommend hiring an iOS Swift app developer who is well-versed in the Apple ecosystem and able to work with its strict quality and security requirements.

Hire Android app developers

Android holds the largest share of the global smartphone market. The platform offers extensive customization options and integration with Google services and third-party APIs. To develop an app for this platform, you need to hire a Kotlin or Java developer. In addition to these languages, Android Studio and the Android SDK are used for building and debugging. It's important to hire an Android app developer with experience working with various OS versions and optimizing for a wide range of device models.

Hire cross-platform app developers

Cross-platform development is an approach that allows you to create a single app for both iOS and Android. This approach reduces project time and budget while maintaining the product's usability and functionality. If a company wants to quickly test a hypothesis or launch on both platforms simultaneously, we recommend hiring a mobile app developer who specializes in cross-platform solutions. Based on the technology stack, such specialists are divided into several specialized areas.

• Flutter developers work with Google's Dart framework, enabling them to create fast, beautiful apps with a custom UI and native experience for iOS and Android users. If you need to quickly bring your product to market, ensure high performance, and a modern interface, we recommend hiring Flutter app developers at AVADA MEDIA. Our experience allows us to create cross-platform mobile apps that meet business goals and user expectations.

Using Flutter, we developed a mobile app for the HelperCRM. It fully syncs with the web version and enables management of branches, client base, personnel, services, and finances. We implemented native phone functionality, push notifications, convenient widgets for intuitive user interaction, and interactive analytical reports.

We also used Flutter to develop the client side of the Betbol mobile fintech app, providing a user-friendly and intuitive interface. The betting app integrates complex mathematical calculations of bets, odds, and payouts, a modern UX/UI, and additional partner games via a WebView.

• A React Native developer uses JavaScript/TypeScript for cross-platform development. These apps are flexible, quick to create, and easy to scale. We recommend hiring React Native developers for your MVP or startup.
• A .NET MAUI (Xamarin) developer writes code in C# and .NET, making this technology suitable for enterprise solutions. It ensures reliability and the ability to integrate with business systems. Hiring Xamarin developers from us means getting a unified solution for multiple platforms with a focus on stability and long-term support.

The choice between native and cross-platform development depends on the project's objectives. If maximum performance, compatibility with device hardware, and stability are priorities, it's better to hire an iOS/Android developer, i.e., a native solution. However, if launch speed and budget optimization are paramount, a cross-platform solution is the best option. We'll conduct an analysis and determine the optimal stack and the right developer for your project.

What business needs a mobile developer?

Mobile developers are in demand across all business sectors, from startups to large corporations. Our specialists transform any idea into working apps.

• Startups often require a minimum viable product to quickly test their idea in the market, gather feedback, and attract investment. Speed, flexibility, and the ability to work with cross-platform technologies are key factors here.
• Small and medium-sized businesses typically want to hire a mobile app developer for online ordering, service booking, loyalty programs, or internal process automation, who will make the product an effective sales and customer engagement channel.
• In large companies, developers help maintain and develop existing applications, add functionality, and integrate services. They can work in any format—either internally or through outsourcing, expanding their staff for the duration of the project.

If your business requires audience presence on smartphones or process automation, you can hire a mobile developer from AVADA MEDIA today.

How to hire mobile app developers for Android and iOS platforms?

We offer various models of cooperation, depending on business objectives.

• Outstaffing – you can hire one or more specialists who will integrate into your team and work under your management. This way, you retain control over the process and gain access to proven specialists. This option is suitable if your team already has a project manager and analysts, but lacks mobile developers to handle specific tasks.
