Android Social Media App

I’m building a dedicated social-media experience for Android and need a developer who can take the idea from an initial prototype all the way to a polished, Play-Store-ready release. The core goal is to let users create profiles, post updates, interact with each other in real time, and receive push notifications—all wrapped in a clean, modern UI that feels instantly familiar to anyone who has used mainstream platforms.

I already have a clear feature map and rough wireframes; what I need now is your Android expertise (Java or Kotlin is fine) to turn them into a fast, stable application. A lightweight, secure back-end (Firebase, Supabase, or a RESTful API you prefer) will power authentication, media storage, and the social graph, so experience with at least one of those stacks is essential.

Key deliverables
• Full Android Studio project with well-commented code
• Responsive UI that adapts smoothly from small phones to large tablets
• Login/registration with email, Google, or phone (Firebase Auth is acceptable)
• Real-time feed with likes, comments, and in-app notifications
• Basic direct messaging module (WebSockets or Firebase Realtime Database)
• Push notifications configured through FCM
• Deployment assistance: signing, Play Console upload, and one post-launch bug-fix cycle

I’ll provide the design assets, brand colors, and access keys. You’ll keep the repo updated daily, document any third-party libraries you add, and run a quick demo build for feedback every week.

If you’ve shipped at least one social or chat-heavy Android app before, I’d love to see it. Looking forward to collaborating and getting this into users’ hands soon!
