Android App Development Company
Play Store ready Android apps from a cross-platform React Native codebase that also covers iOS.
Who this is for
If any of this sounds like you, we should talk.
Your market lives on Android
Your users are on Android phones, often mid range hardware on imperfect networks. You need an app that respects the back button, starts fast, and does not assume a flagship device.
You want Android and iOS from one build
We build Android through React Native and Expo, so the same codebase ships to the App Store too. One project, both platforms, no duplicate teams or duplicate bugs.
You need a companion app for your product or store
A seller dashboard, a booking tool, a customer app for your ecommerce brand. Something your users install once and open daily, wired to the backend you already run.
You have an APK nobody wants to touch
An aging app with an outdated target API, Play policy warnings, and a developer who vanished. We audit it, tell you what it needs, and fix it or rebuild it.
What changes for you
Outcomes you can point to, not features you can ignore.
- A Play Store listed app that runs well on mid range devices, not just flagships.
- One React Native codebase covering Android now and iOS whenever you want it.
- Native integrations where needed: Google Pay, maps, camera, and background services through Kotlin modules.
- Play Console handled end to end: signing, listing, data safety form, staged rollouts.
- Crash reporting and analytics wired from the first release, so you see problems before users report them.

How an engagement works
From hello to handoff, step by step.
Book a scoping call
We review your product, your audience's devices, and your backend. You get a straight answer on scope and stack before anyone writes code.
Get a scoped proposal
Within 48 hours you receive a written scope, milestone plan, and fixed deliverables. No vague hourly traps.
Build on the internal testing track
You install real builds from the Play Console internal track as features land, on the same devices your users own.
Harden for real devices
Performance passes on mid range hardware, offline behavior, back button flows, and Play policy checks before submission.
Launch with a staged rollout
We submit, manage review, and roll out in stages with crash monitoring, so a problem reaches a fraction of users instead of all of them.
Iterate after launch
Over the air updates for fast fixes, store releases for features, and an optional care plan for target API updates and ongoing work.

Case study
Insta2cart
Sellers stand up a branded store from their phone, manage products, orders, and refunds from a mobile-first dashboard, and take real payments instead of DM transfers.
Small Indian sellers run entire businesses through Instagram DMs: orders in chat threads, payment details shared by hand, no real checkout. Insta2cart needed a commerce platform a non technical, phone-first audience could run entirely from a mobile device.
We built the full platform: phone and OTP onboarding, a template storefront builder, a mobile-first seller dashboard, and Razorpay checkout covering UPI, cards, wallets, and cash on delivery. Built in React, the same architecture our Android builds ship through React Native.
Why us
What you get with WitsCode that you don't get elsewhere.
Honest about the stack
We ship Android through React Native and Expo, with Kotlin modules where the platform demands them. For most products that is the faster, better call, and when your app genuinely needs a pure Kotlin build, we say so.
Built for real devices, not emulators
We test on mid range hardware across price tiers, on slow networks, with the back button and interruptions Android users actually produce. Flagship-only testing is how apps earn one star reviews.
300+ builds of pattern recognition
We have shipped 300+ websites and products since 2019 for clients in 4 countries. Your app inherits that discipline: typed code, real QA, monitoring from the first release.
WitsCode rebuilt our Shopify store so it finally converts the traffic we were already getting. They understand speed and storytelling in equal measure, and the store has been a real growth lever since launch.
Frequently asked
Questions before you reach out.
We build Android apps with React Native and Expo, and write native Kotlin modules where a feature needs platform code. We say that plainly because for most products it is the right call: a real native app on the Play Store, plus an iOS version from the same codebase. If your app truly needs pure Kotlin, we tell you on the scoping call.
Yes, when it is built properly. React Native renders real Android components, and the details that make an app feel native (back button behavior, navigation transitions, keyboard handling, performance on mid range devices) are engineering discipline, not framework limits. We test on the hardware your users own, not just on emulators.
We treat Play policy as part of the build, not an afterthought. That means the data safety form filled accurately from what the app actually collects, target API level kept current with Google's annual requirements, correct permissions declarations, and a staged rollout so any issue surfaces on a small slice of users first.
A focused version one typically ships in weeks rather than months, because the cross-platform stack removes duplicate work and the internal testing track keeps feedback continuous through the build. Scope drives timeline: screens, backend complexity, and native integrations. Your scoped proposal includes a firm timeline up front.
Yes, and that is the point of the stack. Because we build with React Native, the same codebase runs on iOS. Adding the App Store is a launch scope (Apple Developer setup, iPhone testing, App Review), not a second development project. Launch both together or start with Android and follow when ready.
Yes. Fixes ship over the air without waiting on review, features go through store releases, and we keep the app current with Google's target API requirements each year. Stay on a care plan for that, or take the documented codebase in house. You are not orphaned the day after launch.
Yes. We audit the codebase, the Play Console state, and any policy warnings, then give you a straight recommendation: fix, modernize, or rebuild. If the existing app is too far gone, we say so and scope a rebuild instead of billing you to keep a wreck limping along.
