Answer
schukai develops mobile applications and, depending on the project, can cover several platforms. A commitment to Android, iOS or other systems should only be made once the user group, the existing devices, the operating system functions required and the publication route have been clarified. A shared code base can reduce development effort, but it does not remove differences in permissions, background services, store rules, device hardware and testing.
For internal applications it can be economical to support only the platform actually in use at first. For a public customer app, a staged launch can also make sense, provided the excluded user group is consciously accepted. The scope therefore does not have to be “both platforms or nothing”. What matters is that architecture, accounts and data model do not needlessly block a later extension, and that the publicly promised availability matches the real, tested status.
