One Codebase - iOS and Android. Shipped 40–60% faster with AI-assisted development.
Build engaging, scalable, and cost-efficient apps for iOS and Android.
Hireplicity designs and develops cross-platform mobile apps for EdTech and SaaS companies — FERPA-compliant learning apps, instructor dashboards, learner portals, and enterprise mobile tools. Built on Flutter and React Native. AI-assisted delivery means faster timelines, higher test coverage, and a codebase your team can maintain without us.
Why cross-platform — and why Hireplicity?
One codebase for iOS and Android means half the build time and a third of the maintenance cost of two native apps. For EdTech and SaaS companies shipping to mixed device environments, cross-platform is almost always the right architectural choice. Here's what you get.
One Codebase — iOS and Android, Simultaneously
Launch on both platforms from the same build, at the same time. No staggered release, no platform-specific code drift, no doubling the QA surface. One sprint cycle ships to both app stores.
Lower Costs, Faster ROI
Cross-platform development costs 40–70% less than maintaining separate iOS and Android codebases. With AI-assisted development on top, our timelines run 40–60% faster than traditional cross-platform estimates.
Native-Quality UX Across Every Device
Flutter and React Native produce near-native performance — not a degraded web wrapper. Your users on an iPad, an Android phone, or a Chromebook get the same experience. WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility applied from the first component.
Built to Scale — Features, Users, and Platforms
Modular architecture means new features, additional user roles, or new integrations don't require a rebuild. We've scaled EdTech mobile apps from 5,000 to 100,000+ active users in under 18 months on the same codebase.
EdTech-Specific Compliance — Built In, Not Bolted On
For EdTech mobile apps: FERPA data handling, COPPA-compliant data collection for under-13 users, WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility, and LTI 1.3 / OneRoster integration.

Our mobile engineering expertise — EdTech and beyond.
18+ years building platforms for learners, educators, and enterprises. We build mobile applications in Flutter and React Native.
Interactive Learning Apps
Gamified, multimedia-rich learning environments built for engagement and retention — from bite-sized microlearning to full eLearning ecosystems. SCORM/xAPI tracking, adaptive learning pathways, and offline content delivery for low-bandwidth environments.
Teacher & Admin Tools
Intuitive mobile dashboards for attendance, grading, performance analytics, and parent communication. Built for the workflows educators actually use — not the ones software teams imagine they use.
Real-Time Communication
In-app messaging, push notifications, video conferencing integration (Zoom, Google Meet, custom WebRTC), and parent-teacher communication tools. Role-based access so students, teachers, and admins each see what they need — and nothing they don't.
Gamification & Progress Tracking
Boost engagement and retention through achievement badges, leaderboards, and personalized learning pathways.
LMS & SIS Integration
LTI 1.3, OneRoster, SCORM/xAPI, SIS sync, SSO — your mobile app connects to the platforms your institutions already use. We've implemented every major EdTech integration standard. Your users don't have to manage multiple logins or duplicate data across systems.
Learning Analytics & Reporting
Real-time learning analytics, custom report builders, xAPI/Caliper data pipelines, and role-specific dashboards for instructors, administrators, and executives. FERPA-compliant data handling throughout.
AI-assisted development — in every mobile sprint.
Every Hireplicity mobile engineer works with GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude as standard tools — not experiments. The result is 40–60% faster delivery with 80–85% automated test coverage, including UI testing across device sizes and operating system versions.
All AI tools are formally approved before they touch your codebase. No student PII passes through AI systems without your explicit written approval. FERPA and COPPA compliance checkpoints run at every sprint gate.
delivery
Compliance-safe by default
Student PII is never passed to AI tools without explicit written approval. We use only enterprise-tier tools with contractual no-training commitments on client code — critical for FERPA and COPPA environments.
checks
AI-generated accessibility testing
WCAG 2.1 AA compliance checks run automatically on every UI component — throughout the sprint cycle, not just at final audit. Fewer remediation cycles, faster VPAT readiness across iOS and Android.
coverage
LMS features that used to take weeks now take days
AI-assisted scaffolding of LTI integrations, OneRoster sync modules, and assessment engines — with 80–85% automated test coverage out of the box, across both iOS and Android device profiles.
How we build your mobile app.
Four phases — from technical scoping to App Store submission. Every compliance requirement surfaced before a line of code is written.
Flutter or React Native — selected for your specific requirements
iOS + Android simultaneously — one sprint cycle, both app stores
App Store submission managed — listing, screenshots, compliance review
Discovery & Technical Scoping
Taylor Basilio or a senior architect reviews your user personas, platform requirements, compliance needs, and integration dependencies. For EdTech clients, FERPA, COPPA, and WCAG requirements are confirmed at this stage. You leave with a written spec and a prototype recommendation before any commitment is made.
Architecture & UI/UX Design
Flutter or React Native is selected based on your requirements. UI/UX wireframes and interactive prototypes are built for the roles your users actually occupy — students, teachers, admins, parents. WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility applied from the first component.
AI-Assisted Sprint Development
Two-week sprint cadence. AI-generated test scaffolding covers 80–85% of new code, with device compatibility testing across iOS and Android versions at every sprint gate. You see working software on both platforms at the end of every sprint.
App Store Submission & Post-Launch Support
We manage App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android) submission — including store listing copy, screenshots, and compliance review. A 30-day post-launch support window is included. After that, move to a Dedicated Pod for ongoing development or take the codebase fully in-house. All IP is yours.
18 years. 50+ EdTech platforms. Your mobile app is in proven hands.
Hireplicity has built mobile applications for EdTech innovators, SaaS companies, and enterprise teams — with the deepest expertise in EdTech. Our mobile apps have been used by thousands of learners and educators across K–12, higher education, and corporate L&D.
