A senior bilingual Native + React Native mobile team for Miami hospitality, real estate, fintech, crypto, and DTC brands. iOS, Android, App Store + Play Store launch with ET coverage Mon-Fri 9-6.
Miami mobile app work runs across hospitality, real estate, fintech, and crypto-adjacent clusters with bilingual EN/ES UX as the default expectation. Audiences switch languages daily on the same device, and serious Miami apps respect that with proper i18n architecture (string tables externalized, locale switching without app restart, formatted numbers and dates per locale, RTL-friendly layout for future Hebrew or Arabic expansion). We default to Native (Swift, SwiftUI, Kotlin, Jetpack Compose) when the app needs deep platform integration — secure enclave for crypto wallets, ARKit for real-estate virtual tours, advanced camera processing for hospitality. React Native via Expo when 80 percent of the codebase can ship cross-platform without losing UX.

§ 04 · questions
Five answers.
When does Miami mobile work need Native vs React Native?
We pick Native (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) when the app needs deep platform integration: secure enclave for crypto wallet private keys, Apple Wallet for hospitality digital keys, ARKit for real-estate virtual tours, advanced camera processing for hospitality concierge features. We pick React Native (or Flutter) when the app is mostly forms, lists, content, and standard auth flows where 80 percent of the codebase can ship to both platforms. The decision walks at discovery; we will not push React Native to save engineering hours if it costs the user a worse experience or a regulatory risk.
Do you build bilingual EN/ES mobile apps in Miami?
Yes — bilingual scope is the Miami mobile default. We architect i18n properly from day one (string tables externalized, locale switching without app restart, formatted numbers and dates per locale, longer-Spanish-word-aware layout), integrate professional Spanish copywriting through the build cycle, and submit App Store and Play Store listings in both languages. App Store metadata (screenshots, descriptions, keywords) ships per locale with native QA, not auto-translation review.
Can you build crypto and fintech apps in Miami?
Yes. The post-2020 Miami tech migration brought a strong fintech and crypto cluster, and these apps are a meaningful share of our Miami mobile work. For fintech we use Plaid for bank linking, Stripe for payments, biometric auth via the OS keychain, and PCI-aware analytics that scrub sensitive fields. For crypto we integrate hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) where applicable, use the secure enclave for private-key custody when self-custody is the model, and architect chain-specific RPC handling cleanly. SOC 2 documentation comes up for fintech apps; we coordinate via Vanta or Drata.
How do you handle App Store + Play Store submission for Miami clients?
Submission is part of the engagement, not a hand-off. We build the App Store Connect and Google Play Console listings, write App Store Optimization copy per locale (EN + ES typically), prepare screenshot sets at every required size in both languages, configure privacy disclosures, and submit. Crypto and fintech apps frequently face additional review (Apple's restricted-content policies, Google Play's financial-services category rules); we plan launches with a 3-week buffer for these resubmission cycles. Apple Developer + Google Play Developer accounts stay in the client's name; we operate as additional admins during the engagement.
Do you work in person in Miami for mobile app discovery?
Yes — at least one in-person discovery workshop in Miami for any flagship engagement. Workshops typically run a half day to two days at your office or ours, frequently at neutral spaces in Wynwood, Brickell, Miami Beach, or Coral Gables. Day-to-day build runs remote with weekly Friday demos on Eastern Time, same-ET working hours, and quarterly in-person retainer reviews for ongoing engagements. Art Basel week is the one launch-blackout window we maintain.
