About the project:

We're building a Xenforo Mobile App — a native iOS + Android client for a Xenforo-based online discussion community. The web/PWA version is already built with React + TypeScript (Vite + Tailwind) and communicates with the XenForo backend via a thin Supabase Edge Functions proxy (OAuth2 + REST). The app is functional today in the browser — we now need to ship it to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.


What we need:

We're looking for a freelance mobile developer (or small studio) to take the existing codebase and deliver production-ready, store-approved native apps.


Scope of work:

1. Wrap the existing React app with Capacitor (or recommend/justify React Native / Expo if clearly better).

2. Native integrations:
  • Push notifications (new replies, mentions, thread subscriptions)
  • Deep links (open ourforum.com/threads/... directly in the app)
  • Biometric login (Face ID/fingerprint) on top of our existing auth
  • Image upload from camera/gallery for posts
  • Share sheet integration

3. Performance & polish: splash screen, app icons, safe-area handling, and offline graceful states.

4. Store submission:
  • Apple App Store (TestFlight → production)
  • Google Play Store (Internal testing → production)
  • Privacy policy review, data-safety forms, age rating, screenshots, listing copy assistance.

5. CI/CD: set up automated builds (EAS / Fastlane / Codemagic — your choice).

6. Handoff: documentation + 30 days post-launch bug-fix support.


Required skills:

- 3+ years shipping production iOS and Android apps (please share live store links).

- Strong React / TypeScript; experience with Capacitor or React Native.

- Hands-on Apple Developer + Google Play Console submission experience (you've handled rejections before).

- Familiarity with REST APIs / OAuth2 token refresh.

- Bonus: experience with XenForo, FCM/APNs, or apps serving similar markets.


How to apply:

DM me here (on Xenforo) with subject "Xenforo Mobile App — [Your Name]":

1. Short intro (max 200 words) — why this project interests you.

2. Links to 2–3 apps you've shipped to both stores.

3. Your recommended approach (Capacitor vs React Native) and why.

4. Realistic timeline + fixed-price quote (or day rate + estimated days).

5. Your location & timezone.

Deadline to apply: 2 weeks from the date of this advert

Target launch: ASAP
