Mobile SDK development for Flutter, React Native, iOS and Android. Provide mobile developers with straightforward access to your services and expand your customer base.
Foresight Mobile specialise in writing SDK integrations for cross platform frameworks such as React Native and Flutter, as well as native mobile SDKs for iOS (Cocoapods & SPM) and Android (Gradle).
If you already have native SDKs for iOS and Android, then we can work with you to expand into the cross-platform market. If you're already providing a web or REST-based service, then we can work together to bring your products to mobile efficiently and collaboratively using our SDK development best practices.
Cross-platform development is increasingly becoming the preferred way to develop mobile apps: React Native and Flutter are gaining massively in popularity. (You might want to have a look at our page on the rising popularity of Flutter here).
Foresight Mobile can develop cross-platform native modules for your exiting native mobile SDKs, allowing you to expand into the cross-platform market.
When distributing iOS SDKs, developers need to understand Apple's distribution requirements. Our comprehensive iOS app distribution guide covers everything from TestFlight beta testing to App Store distribution for SDK developers.
We've produced native Android SDKs, and native iOS SDKs and deployed to Cocoapods, SPM, NPM and Gradle
We can work with your developer advocates and business development team to actively support the integration process for your high-value customers. Our colleagues have the wide experience and skillsets required to assist the integration of your service in an effective and collaborative manner.
Developers make their product choices based on ease of integration, documentation and quality. Ensure that more of your customers choose your service by improving documentation, providing useful samples and straightforward support processes.
Maintaining an open source SDK can be great for developers, but along with it comes the need for maintenance, updates and support across a wide range of skillsets. We can shoulder some of the workload, while updating documentation and examples to ease the support burden.
If you already have native Android and iOS SDKs we can cost-effectively 'wrap' your existing native libraries to produce SDKs suitable for cross-platform developers using Flutter, React Native and other frameworks. With the overwhelming majority of new apps using cross-platform technologies this can be the most sensible approach market expansion.
“They’re more thoughtful than any other development team I’ve worked with..... I’m not sure what they could improve."
"The team has delivered exactly what we asked for but is able to use their own skill and judgment to make improvements"
"Foresight Mobile effectively and promptly met our needs. They were a candid, reliable, and collaborative partner."
A REST API is an architectural style for web services using HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) to manipulate data over the internet. In 2025, APIs often include GraphQL endpoints, WebSocket connections for real-time data, and OpenAPI specifications for better documentation.
An SDK (Software Development Kit) is a complete toolkit including libraries, documentation, code samples, and development tools. Modern SDKs provide type-safe client libraries, authentication handlers, error management, offline caching, and IDE integrations. While APIs define the communication protocol, SDKs abstract complexity and accelerate development. For example, the Stripe SDK handles payment processing complexities that would require hundreds of lines of code using raw API calls.
Mobile SDKs in 2025 cover diverse functionalities:
Mobile SDKs are comprehensive development toolkits that accelerate app creation by providing pre-built functionality, eliminating the need to code everything from scratch. In 2025, SDKs include AI-powered code generation, automated testing suites, and cross-platform compatibility layers. They provide access to device capabilities (camera, GPS, biometrics), integrate with cloud services, handle complex operations (payments, authentication, analytics), and ensure security compliance.
Modern SDKs feature modular architecture for smaller app sizes, privacy-preserving analytics, offline-first capabilities, and automatic updates. They reduce development time by 40-60% while ensuring best practices and platform compliance.
Mobile SDK development costs in 2025 vary significantly based on complexity and features. Basic SDKs wrapping REST APIs with authentication and error handling cost £5,000-10,000. Intermediate SDKs with offline support, caching, and platform-specific optimizations range from £20,000-50,000. Advanced SDKs featuring UI components, real-time sync, and AI capabilities cost £50,000-150,000+.
Factors affecting cost include: number of platforms (iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter), API complexity, security requirements, documentation quality, sample apps, and ongoing maintenance. Open-source SDKs require additional investment in community management and support. Consider SDK-as-a-Service platforms for faster deployment at lower initial cost.
