React Native or Flutter — which should I choose in 2026?

Both are solid. React Native is better if your team knows JavaScript/TypeScript, if you need Shopify or existing npm integrations, or if you are building alongside a Next.js web project. Flutter has stronger animation primitives. We build React Native and recommend it for most business apps, but will tell you honestly if Flutter fits your case better.

Does React Native support both iOS and Android?

Yes. One codebase compiles to native binaries for both platforms. With Expo EAS Build, you do not need a Mac to build iOS binaries. We deliver working builds for both platforms at every sprint end.

Can you connect a React Native app to Shopify?

Yes. We integrate with the Shopify Storefront API for product browsing, cart, checkout, customer accounts, and order history. FloraSoul India is one example — Shopify + React Native delivered a +41% mobile conversion rate improvement.

Do you handle App Store and Google Play submission?

Yes, always. Binary preparation, metadata, screenshots, privacy policy requirements, and submission for both Apple App Store and Google Play are included. We manage any review feedback from Apple or Google until the app is approved.

What is the difference between Expo managed and bare workflow?

Managed workflow builds without touching native iOS/Android code — ideal for most business apps. Bare workflow gives full access to the native layer for custom modules or hardware integrations. We start managed and migrate to bare only when genuinely required.

How long does a React Native app take to build?

An MVP with 5–7 screens: 4–6 sprints (8–12 weeks) including App Store submission. A full D2C commerce app with Shopify, auth, and push notifications: 6–10 sprints. Specific estimate given after reviewing your requirements.

What backend do you recommend for React Native apps?

For new projects: AWS Amplify with Cognito (auth) and AppSync (real-time GraphQL) — we are an official AWS Partner. For simpler projects, Firebase works well. For clients with existing APIs, we connect to any REST or GraphQL backend.

How is pricing structured?

Fixed-price 2-week sprints from ₹1,20,000 per sprint. Each sprint delivers working iOS and Android builds. Total project cost depends on sprint count, estimated in the discovery call and locked before work begins. No hourly billing.

What Our Developers Excel At

D2C Mobile Commerce

Shopify Storefront API connected to a native iOS and Android app. Product browsing, cart, checkout, customer accounts, order tracking — built for conversion.

Expo Router Navigation

File-based routing with Expo Router, bringing Next.js-style developer experience to mobile with deep linking out of the box.

New Architecture (JSI/Fabric)

We build on React Native's New Architecture — faster bridge-less communication, synchronous native calls, and improved rendering performance.

AWS Backend Integration

As an official AWS Partner, we build mobile backends using Amplify, Cognito for auth, AppSync for real-time GraphQL, and S3 for media.

Push Notifications

Cross-platform push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging, OneSignal, or Expo Notifications. Configured for both iOS (APNs) and Android (FCM).

App Store Submission

We prepare metadata, screenshots, privacy policy compliance, and binary submissions for both Apple App Store and Google Play. Approval managed by us.

Building two mobile apps — one for iOS, one for Android — used to be the only option. Separate codebases, separate teams, separate review cycles, and roughly double the cost and timeline. React Native changes that equation fundamentally. One TypeScript codebase compiles to native binaries for both platforms, and the New Architecture (released stable in 2024) closes most of the remaining performance gap with fully native code.

At Innovatrix Infotech, we have built React Native apps for D2C brands connecting to Shopify, service businesses needing customer-facing booking apps, and SaaS products requiring mobile companions to their web platforms. Our standard stack is opinionated and current: Expo SDK with Expo Router for navigation, React Native Reanimated 3 for gesture-driven animations, React Query for server state, and Zustand for local state. Everything is TypeScript with strict mode. No class components anywhere.

For D2C and ecommerce clients, we connect React Native directly to the Shopify Storefront API. For FloraSoul India, a beauty and wellness brand, our Shopify mobile integration contributed to a 41% increase in mobile conversion rate. That outcome was not an accident — it came from architectural decisions made before a line of code was written: product list rendering strategy, cart state management, checkout flow optimisation, and push notification setup for abandoned cart recovery.

As an official AWS Partner, we build the backend infrastructure alongside the mobile app — not as a separate engagement. Authentication via Cognito, real-time data via AppSync, media storage via S3, and push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging or OneSignal. You get a complete mobile product, not just a frontend that needs another team to finish.

Our delivery model is fixed-price 2-week sprints. Before sprint 1 starts, you have wireframes reviewed, architecture agreed, and a clear understanding of what ships at each sprint end. Working builds go to TestFlight and Play Store Internal Testing — you test on your own device, not on a demo video. App Store submission for both Apple and Google is included in project scope, not an add-on.

If you are evaluating React Native for a new app, considering whether to hire a React Native developer or a full native team, or looking to upgrade a legacy codebase to the New Architecture and Expo Router, book a 30-minute discovery call. We will give you a straight technical assessment and a sprint-by-sprint estimate before asking you to commit to anything.

FloraSoul India

FloraSoul India, an Ayurvedic skincare brand founded by Garima Ahuja and Aankush Nagpal, had a vision to bring traditional Indian wellness wisdom to modern consumers. But their digital journey was anything but smooth. Their original website was built on WordPress by two freelancers who took their money and disappeared midway — leaving behind a broken, unusable storefront. The site suffered from constant downtime, painfully slow page loads, and a checkout experience that actively drove customers away. With practically zero revenue from their online channel and growing frustration, FloraSoul was on the verge of abandoning e-commerce altogether. When they reached out to us, they needed more than just a website. They needed a technology partner they could actually trust — one that would deliver on time, on budget, and stick around after launch.
