We create fast, scalable, cross-platform applications that provide a consistent user experience on iOS and Android from a single codebase. Our team helps businesses reduce development costs and accelerate time-to-market by leveraging modern frameworks such as Flutter and React Native.
Businesses choose custom software over off-the-shelf products when they need solutions tailored to unique workflows, compliance requirements and growth targets. According to Grand View Research (2024), the global custom software development market is valued at over $35 billion and is projected to grow at 22.3% CAGR through 2030. Pharos Production delivers full-cycle custom development across three core areas: blockchain and smart contracts, web applications and mobile apps.
We develop high-performance Flutter apps with smooth animations and native-like interactions that work reliably across different platforms. This approach accelerates delivery while maintaining a polished user experience.
Explore Flutter App DevelopmentWe develop scalable React Native apps that efficiently reuse code across iOS and Android without sacrificing performance. This method shortens development time and enables quicker product iterations.
Explore React Native App DevelopmentWe design interfaces that smoothly adapt across devices and operating systems while keeping a unified brand identity. Our cross-platform user experience guarantees consistent usability and intuitive user flows.
Explore Cross-Platform UI/UX DesignWe use a modular architecture to improve code reuse and maintainability across platforms. This method reduces technical overhead and simplifies long-term application updates.
Explore Shared Codebase ArchitectureWe integrate essential APIs, SDKs and plugins to boost your app’s functionality without reinventing the wheel. Payments, analytics, geolocation and other features are implemented securely and efficiently.
Explore Third-Party Plugin and API IntegrationWe perform comprehensive testing across different devices, operating systems and screen sizes to ensure stability and reliability. Both automated and manual QA processes detect and fix bugs before launch.
Explore Cross-Platform Testing and QAWe optimize rendering, networking and memory usage to deliver fast load times and smooth interactions across all platforms. This creates a responsive app experience that users expect from native products.
Explore App Performance OptimizationWe handle full release processes for different platforms, including the App Store, Google Play and web deployment pipelines. This ensures consistent updates and synchronized feature delivery across all channels.
Explore Deployment for iOS, Android and Web PlatformsReact Native uses JavaScript/TypeScript with native bridges and leverages the large React hiring pool, while Flutter uses Dart with a custom rendering engine that delivers pixel-perfect consistency across platforms. According to the 2024 Statista mobile developer survey, React Native has 42% adoption among cross-platform developers vs 46% for Flutter — both are viable production choices; the decision usually comes down to team skills and specific feature needs.
| Factor | React Native | Flutter |
|---|---|---|
| Language | JavaScript / TypeScript | Dart |
| Rendering | Native platform widgets via bridges | Custom Skia/Impeller engine, pixel-perfect consistency |
| Hiring pool | Very large (React + JS/TS) | Smaller but growing; Dart is easy to learn |
| UI consistency | Feels native on each platform (iOS looks iOS, Android looks Android) | Looks identical on both platforms; can mimic native |
| Performance | Near-native; bridge overhead on heavy data transfer | Native-equivalent; no bridge |
| Native modules | Mature ecosystem; most APIs covered by community packages | Growing; some APIs require writing native channels |
| OTA updates | CodePush (Expo), Shorebird — JS layer only | Shorebird — both Dart and engine code (in preview) |
| Best fit | Teams with React experience, ecosystem-heavy apps, rapid iteration | Teams wanting pixel-perfect UI, graphics-heavy apps, greenfield starts |

Three recent cross-platform engagements with the native module boundary that made them work.
Internal team had been building iOS app for 14 months without launching. App store rejections, performance issues, no Android version.
React Native rewrite shipped to App Store and Play Store in 11 weeks. 4.6/5 rating on both stores. 85% code shared between platforms. Original iOS team retained for native modules.
We kept the original iOS team on native modules (camera, biometrics, deep links) while Pharos built the cross-platform JS layer in parallel. The two codebases met at a thin native bridge defined in week one — no rewrite, just an addition.
iOS-only wallet built in Swift with custom cryptography. 60% of addressable market locked out. Code review found 12 security findings in custom signing code.
Flutter rewrite using audited cryptography libraries (libsodium, secp256k1). Both stores launched in 14 weeks. Zero security findings on external pen test. Daily active users grew 4x in 90 days post-launch.
We replaced the custom signing path with battle-tested libraries and pushed all key material into platform secure enclaves via Flutter native channels. The crypto code went from 4,000 hand-written lines to a 200-line wrapper around proven primitives.
Separate iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) codebases maintained by two teams. Feature parity drift: iOS was typically 4-6 weeks behind Android. Business logic duplicated and inconsistent.
Business logic migrated to Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM); UIs remain native. Feature parity drift eliminated. Business logic bugs fixed once across both platforms. Team velocity improved measurably.
KMM was the right tool because the existing teams were already strong in Kotlin and Swift. We extracted only the shared business logic (data models, network, persistence, domain rules); the UI layers stayed native. Lower risk than full cross-platform rewrite.
Client names anonymized under NDA. Full case studies at /cases/.
We decline roughly 30% of RFPs we receive. Forcing a bad fit costs both sides 3-6 months and damages outcomes. Here is how we think about scope:
Cross-platform is the right call for 70% of B2C and B2B apps where 95% feature parity is acceptable, the team needs both stores, and the product does not depend on iOS-only or Android-only APIs. Native development wins for apps with deep Apple ecosystem integration, best-in-class graphics, regulated categories or accessibility extremes. We have recommended native iOS or Android over cross-platform on many engagements where the specific feature surface demanded it.
Parent mobile engagement model with cross-platform vs native trade-offs, pricing and case studies.
Observations from 24 cross-platform engagements delivered 2020-2026 across FinTech, healthcare, logistics and consumer.
React Native New Architecture projects averaged 22 percent faster screen transitions than legacy-architecture equivalents in matched projects.
Platform-aware store disclosure tooling reduced Play Store suspensions by 4.1x across our cross-platform cohort versus manual disclosure.
Teams of 3 to 5 RN or Flutter engineers shipped production apps to both stores in 14 to 22 weeks, approximately 35 percent faster than dual-native equivalents.
Cross-platform retention metrics tracked within 3 percent of matched native apps when UX-polish budget was set to at least 15 percent of engineering hours.
A healthcare customer shipped a React Native app to both iOS and Play in 2024. iOS passed privacy manifest review; Play suspended for "data safety form inaccuracy" citing an analytics SDK that collected device ID on Android but not iOS. Root cause: the cross-platform analytics SDK had platform-specific data collection, but the team filled both stores' disclosures from the same source truth. We built a platform-aware dependency manifest generator that cross-referenced each RN dependency against iOS privacy manifest requirements and Android Data Safety form taxonomy. Play reinstated the app within 4 days and no subsequent rejections hit dual-platform submissions. The lesson: cross-platform SDKs often have platform-specific data behaviour; store disclosures must reflect actual platform behaviour, not the SDK documentation.

Choose React Native if your team already uses React/TypeScript for web, you want access to the largest hiring pool, or you need ecosystem-heavy integrations (dozens of mature native packages). Choose Flutter if you want pixel-perfect UI consistency across platforms, need high-performance custom graphics, or are starting greenfield with no React investment.
Pharos builds both; we recommend whichever fits your team and feature surface. About 60% of our cross-platform work is React Native, 40% is Flutter.
MVP typically 8-14 weeks for both stores: 2-3 weeks discovery and architecture, 5-8 weeks build with TestFlight + Play Internal every sprint, 1-2 weeks App Store + Play Store submission. Production apps with native modules, OTA updates and monitoring run 4-9 months.
Compared to dual-native (iOS + Android separately), cross-platform ships in ~50-60% of the time.
Cross-platform MVP $30,000-$80,000 for both stores. Production app $80,000-$250,000+ (complex native integrations, custom backend, offline-first, payments).
Compare to dual-native at $60,000-$500,000+ for the same scope. The cost savings come from one codebase, one team, one test suite - but the native module layer still costs native engineer time.
Yes. We submit early to TestFlight and Play Internal so the first store interaction happens well before launch.
Pre-submission checklist covers common rejection reasons (privacy nutrition labels, data safety labels, IDFA compliance, in-app purchase routing, restricted API usage). Pharos cross-platform apps have a >93% first-submission acceptance rate through this discipline.
Yes. CodePush (for React Native, via Expo) and Shorebird (for Flutter) let you ship JS or Dart code updates without going through the store review cycle.
Store policies allow this for bug fixes and JavaScript/Dart logic changes - native module updates still require a store review. We design apps so OTA updates can handle common bug fixes and A/B tests without requiring new store releases.
Cross-platform struggles with: heavy graphics (prefer Metal/Vulkan directly), real-time audio processing (prefer native audio frameworks), AR/VR (ARKit/ARCore/RealityKit), deep Apple ecosystem integrations (HealthKit, PencilKit, Live Activities), accessibility extremes, and apps where “native feel” is a product requirement. For these cases, pure native delivers better results.
Our default is cross-platform; we pick native when the specific feature surface demands it.
We decline apps with heavy graphics or AR/VR, wrapper apps that should be PWAs, apps without a plan for the ~10% native modules, and projects where the client team is already strong in both native iOS and Android (the hiring argument for cross-platform does not apply).
Published record
Technical articles, comparison guides and methodology deep-dives we write from our own delivery experience.
Cross-platform engineering in 2026 is measurable: platform-aware store compliance, crash-free parity, bundle and launch budgets on both stores. Pharos Production ships RN, Flutter and KMP builds that clear both App Store and Play review on first submission with unified observability and security baselines.
