Big Human’s engineers deliver full-stack solutions that turn your vision into reality. With frontend and backend cross-platform app development capabilities, we can build fully functional mobile apps for every device — and every type of user.
Our Role in Cross-Platform App Development
Big Human is a full-service cross-platform app development company with years of technical expertise. Our engineering team is well-versed in a wide range of coding languages, building both frontend and backend solutions for apps of every scale and complexity. With holistic cross-platform mobile app development services, we make sure your digital product is not only visually appealing but highly performant, too.
What is Cross-Platform Mobile App Development?
Cross-platform app development is the method of using a single codebase to build mobile apps. Instead of developing separate codebases for the same digital product, engineers can write and apply one code to a variety of platforms and operating systems. While there are some device-specific requirements to consider, this approach streamlines the overall development process, minimizing time and effort. To build your digital product, a cross-platform mobile app development company will typically use a JavaScript framework like React Native.
Cross-Platform App Development Case Study
We spent nine years as TD Ameritrade’s cross-platform app development partner.

With a single codebase that can be reused across several devices, cross-platform mobile app development is more cost-effective and time-efficient, saving resources and getting you to market faster.
A unified codebase written with a React Native framework can be translated to an operating system’s native code, so users will have a native experience regardless of the device.
Cross-platform app development creates a consistent, reliable experience for both iOS and Android, broadening your potential user base in the process.
Since developers work with only a single set of code, it’s easier and faster to deploy updates to multiple platforms and operating systems at the same time.
Our Cross-Platform Mobile App Development Process
As a cross-platform mobile application development company, Big Human goes further than the last line of code. We offer full-service solutions that optimize the digital experience at every step of the process. Here’s what ours usually looks like.
Discovery
Our strategists, designers, and engineers spend time understanding your business and your needs. This helps us determine your tech stack — the tools and software needed to build your app.
Design & Iterate
The Big Human design team creates designs for multiple devices, employing best practices and keeping developers in the loop to ensure all features are functional within the designs.
Development
Our engineers build out your app with React Native, a cross-platform mobile app development framework. This is also the phase where we implement designs across desktop, mobile, and tablet for both iOS and Android operating systems.
Quality Assurance
Before you go to market, we first need to make sure we’ve built the best experience possible. We bring in QA testers, so we can identify and fix any bugs. We then submit your app to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store to verify its compatibility with their operating systems, making more updates if needed.
Launch
It’s one thing to build an app and another to maintain it. Big Human sticks with you even after launch, providing ongoing maintenance and support to ensure your app continues to provide a seamless user experience.
