Read More →OpenMalo builds production-grade cross-platform mobile apps with React Native — delivering native iOS and Android experiences from a single JavaScript codebase. Our Melbourne React Native team has shipped 80+ apps for Australian businesses seeking faster delivery without compromising on performance or platform fidelity.
React Native shares 85–95% of code between iOS and Android, reducing development time and cost by up to 40% compared to maintaining two separate native codebases — with near-native performance via the New Architecture (JSI).
With the New Architecture's JSI and Fabric renderer, React Native 0.74+ renders with native components and responds to touch at 60–120fps — indistinguishable from native apps for the vast majority of use cases.
Yes — we implement react-native-keychain for secure credential storage, certificate pinning via react-native-ssl-pinning, biometric authentication, and code obfuscation with Hermes bytecode compilation.
Expo SDK (managed or bare) accelerates development significantly and is our default for most projects. We recommend bare React Native when you need custom native modules or advanced device APIs not covered by Expo's ecosystem.
Yes — we write custom native modules in Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) and bridge them to JavaScript using the new Turbo Native Modules API, giving you access to any device capability the platform exposes.
We integrate Expo Notifications or React Native Firebase for cross-platform push delivery. Deep linking, notification categories, and quiet notifications are all supported, with backend integration to your CRM or event system.
Jest and React Native Testing Library cover unit and integration tests. Detox provides end-to-end testing on real iOS and Android devices. EAS Build runs automated CI/CD with device farm testing on every PR.
Yes — Expo Updates (OTA) allows us to push JavaScript bundle updates instantly without App Store or Google Play review, within Apple and Google policy limits. Critical bug fixes can reach users within minutes.
OpenMalo has been building React Native apps since version 0.29 — before most agencies had even heard of the framework. Our Melbourne-based React Native team of 15+ engineers has delivered 80+ cross-platform apps for Australian fintech companies, retail brands, logistics operators, and healthcare providers. We have deep experience with both Expo managed workflow and bare React Native, and we contribute to the open-source React Native ecosystem.
We adopted the New Architecture (Fabric, JSI, Turbo Modules) on production projects in 2023 — well ahead of the wider industry. Every React Native app we build is set up with EAS Build for CI/CD, EAS Update for over-the-air delivery, and Expo Application Services for streamlined App Store and Google Play submission. Ongoing maintenance starts from AUD $1,400/month covering both iOS and Android simultaneously.

Production-grade cross-platform apps targeting both App Store and Google Play from a single TypeScript/JavaScript codebase, with near-native performance via New Architecture.
Learn More →Migrate existing separate iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) codebases to a unified React Native codebase, consolidating your engineering team and reducing ongoing maintenance cost.
Learn More →Expo managed workflow for rapid delivery of standard feature sets; bare workflow for projects requiring custom native modules, C++ libraries, or advanced device APIs.
Learn More →Profiling and fixing slow renders, JS thread bottlenecks, large bundle sizes, and memory leaks in existing React Native apps — targeting 60fps on mid-range Android devices.
Learn More →Write custom Turbo Native Modules in Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) to expose device hardware, third-party SDKs, or platform APIs not available in the React Native ecosystem.
Learn More →Ongoing React Native version upgrades, Expo SDK updates, App Store and Play Store compliance, bug fixes, and feature additions for both platforms from AUD $1,400/month.
Learn More →Industry-leading tools and frameworks chosen for performance, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
We assess whether Expo managed, bare workflow, or hybrid native modules best fit your requirements — then produce a TypeScript project architecture and shared component design system.
Platform-adaptive Figma designs use iOS HIG and Android Material 3 conventions per platform. We build a shared React Native component library before feature development begins.
Two-week sprints deliver installable TestFlight and APK builds via EAS Build. Jest, React Native Testing Library, and Detox tests run automatically on every pull request.
EAS Submit handles App Store and Google Play submissions simultaneously. OTA update pipelines via EAS Update enable rapid hotfixes and content changes without store review delays.
Consistently rated as a top technology company in Australia — backed by verified client reviews on Clutch and GoodFirms.
We sign an NDA before any discussion. All IP belongs to you — no shared code, no reuse on completion.
Access to project management tools, weekly progress reports, and live sprint demos throughout delivery.
Melbourne and Sydney offices with real people you can meet in your time zone. Invoiced in AUD.
Agile delivery with fortnightly demos so you see progress, give feedback, and stay in control at every sprint.
We don't just deliver and disappear. Structured post-launch support and ongoing development partnerships available.
