Build · Android App Development

One app, three billion devices.

Android runs on everything, and the app must behave the same on a budget handset as on a flagship.


Overview

Android runs on more than three billion devices, and no two are quite the same. We build in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose with clean architecture, so the app holds its behaviour across that spread: budget hardware, old OS versions, broken connections. For finance, health and enterprise, where the device is the least predictable part of the system, this is where the discipline goes.

What it includes

The work, named plainly.

01

Kotlin first

Kotlin throughout, with Compose for the interface, coroutines for concurrency and Flow for reactive data. One language, the platform’s own.

02

The same on every handset

Architecture and testing built to hold behaviour steady across thousands of device configurations, screen sizes and OS versions.

03

Published and kept published

Play Store policy, target SDK levels and data-safety declarations tracked as they shift, so the app stays live and findable.

04

Works without signal

Room and WorkManager keep the app usable offline and reconcile cleanly when connectivity returns. No spinner of death.

05

Fast on slow hardware

Baseline profiles, R8 and StrictMode tune startup and scrolling, measured on the cheap phones, not just the new ones.

How we work

Engineered once. Maintained indefinitely.

  1. 01 Map requirements to Android capabilities: widgets, notifications and system integrations.
  2. 02 Lay a clean architecture foundation with MVVM, Hilt and modularised Gradle builds.
  3. 03 Build the interface in Jetpack Compose and Material 3, with dark mode and dynamic colour.
  4. 04 Wire networking through Retrofit and OkHttp, with certificate pinning for sensitive transfer.
  5. 05 Run the test suite across a device matrix in Firebase Test Lab and on instrumented hardware.
  6. 06 Release through Play with staged rollouts, in-app updates and Crashlytics monitoring.
