      QA & Pre-Launch Testing

      Before launch, every app undergoes rigorous testing on multiple devices, OS versions, networks, and edge cases. We evaluate performance, usability, security, and compliance to App Store and Google Play standards. This reduces crash rates, increases stability.

      Deployment & Cloud Setup

      We deploy your mobile app with optimized configurations on AWS, Azure, Firebase, or Google Cloud, ensuring high availability, speed, and disaster recovery readiness. The deployment strategy is tailored to your operational scale and regional user base.

      Continuous Optimization & Support
