Social Networking Mobile App Development

I’m building a cross-platform social app for both iOS and Android that will let people create their own profile, follow other members, and exchange messages in real time—individually or in groups. I need an end-to-end development partner who can take the idea from wireframes to live release in the App Store and Google Play.

Scope
• Architecture and tech-stack selection (React Native, Flutter, or another proven cross-platform approach—open to your recommendation)
• User account system with email, phone, or social login
• Profile creation, edit, and follow/unfollow workflows
• Private and group chat with push notifications and basic moderation tools
• Secure back-end (Firebase, AWS Amplify, or similar) including database design and simple admin panel
• Clean, modern UI/UX aligned with current platform guidelines
• QA, deployment, and post-launch support for initial patches

Deliverables
1. Source code with clear documentation
2. Working staging build for iOS and Android
3. Production builds ready for store submission
4. Brief hand-over guide so my in-house team can maintain the app

Acceptance Criteria
• Smooth sign-up/login and profile setup on both platforms
• Follow system updates instantly across devices
• Chats deliver in
