Mobile apps, built native for iOS and Android.
Apps that feel first-class on each platform, because we build them native, with no cross-platform shortcuts. We build our own apps this way, so we know the difference it makes. Prefer to talk to us first?
What we build
- Native iOS apps in Swift and SwiftUI.
- Native Android apps in Kotlin and Compose.
- Companion apps to a web platform, sharing one backend.
- Offline-capable apps that hold up without a signal.
Native, not lowest common denominator
Native beats a wrapped web view when performance, feel and platform features matter: smooth gestures, haptics, notifications, in-person payments, the small things people notice without knowing why. Where none of that matters and a cross-platform build is genuinely the right call, we will tell you. Honesty over dogma.
We build our own apps this way
TradeBooked has native iOS and Android builds we designed and wrote ourselves, native, no shortcuts. We know what it takes to make an app feel like it belongs on the device, because we do it for our own product.
Submission and updates
Getting an app live is more than writing it. We handle App Store and Google Play submission, review, and the ongoing releases that keep an app working as iOS and Android change underneath it. It is part of the service, not a handover problem.
How we work
Scope
Find the need, agree the smallest useful first release.
Design
Interfaces drawn to each platform's own feel.
Build
Native code, tested on real devices.
Ship and support
Submitted, reviewed, and kept up to date.
Common questions
Native or React Native?
We build native (Swift and SwiftUI on iOS, Kotlin and Compose on Android) when the app needs to feel first-class, perform well, or use platform features like haptics, notifications and in-person payments. Where a cross-platform wrapper genuinely fits, we will say so.
Do you build both platforms?
Yes. We build for iOS and Android, and we build them native so each feels right on its own platform rather than a lowest common denominator of both.
How long does an app take?
It depends on scope, but we start with the smallest useful version and ship, rather than chasing a huge first release. That keeps the first version in months, not quarters.
Do you handle updates and maintenance?
Yes. We handle App Store and Google Play submission, review, and ongoing releases as part of the service, so the app keeps working as the platforms change.
