Las Vegas mobile apps built to scale.

Mobile apps typically range from $10,000–$50,000+ depending on complexity. A simple utility app starts around $10K, while a full-featured social or e-commerce app with backend can run $30K–$50K+.

Yes. I use React Native and Expo to build cross-platform apps from a single codebase. You get native performance on both iOS and Android without paying for two separate apps.

Most apps take 8–16 weeks from kickoff to App Store submission. Simpler apps can launch in 6 weeks, while complex apps with backends may take 4–6 months.

Absolutely. I handle the entire submission process including app store optimization (ASO), screenshots, descriptions, and compliance with Apple and Google guidelines.

Yes. I regularly add features, fix bugs, and optimize performance for existing React Native and Expo apps. I can audit your current app and recommend improvements.

React Native ships from one codebase to both iOS and Android, with near-native performance and full access to native APIs via Expo or custom native modules. For 90% of Las Vegas SMB apps — booking flows, marketplaces, content apps, internal tools — this is the right tradeoff: half the cost of writing native Swift + Kotlin, faster iteration, and a vast ecosystem (Expo, React Navigation, RN Reanimated, Skia). Flutter is excellent technology but the talent pool is smaller and your future maintenance options are narrower. Native Swift/Kotlin still wins for AAA games, AR/VR apps, and apps that hit edge cases in hardware sensors — but those aren't most projects.

Two layers. JavaScript/UI updates ship via Expo's EAS Update (formerly OTA updates) — your users get the new version on next app open, no App Store review needed. Native changes (adding a new SDK, changing icons, requiring a new permission) require a fresh App Store + Google Play submission, which is 24-72 hour review. We plan releases around this: small fixes and content updates ship instantly; bigger updates get a 2-3 day buffer. Most clients ship 1-2 minor updates a month and 1 native release per quarter.

I handle the backend. Most React Native apps I build use Supabase (Postgres + auth + realtime + storage in one platform) or a custom Node/TypeScript API on Vercel with Postgres. Authentication, push notifications, in-app purchases, payment processing (Stripe), real-time messaging, file uploads — all in one project. You get one bill, one developer accountable for both layers, and no 'that's a backend problem' finger-pointing when something breaks.

Push notifications via Expo Notifications (or OneSignal for advanced segmentation) — registered at first launch, permission asked at the right moment in your onboarding (not a default popup), and tied to user actions in the backend so you can send 'your order shipped' or 'someone replied' from a single API call. Deep linking via Expo Linking and Universal Links / App Links so that tapping a notification or a shared URL opens the right screen with the right data. Set up correctly, deep linking is a 30-50% boost on push notification conversion.

Rejections happen on roughly 1 in 4 first submissions, almost always for fixable reasons (missing privacy policy URL, account-deletion flow not visible to the reviewer, an in-app purchase using the wrong payment flow). I handle the rejection response — read the rejection notes, fix the issue, resubmit with a written explanation to the reviewer. Most rejections resolve in one round (24-72 hours). The full rejection rate on apps I've shipped to App Store is under 8% — well below industry baseline — because I run a pre-submission checklist that catches the common ones before they happen.
