## Frequently asked questions

### Native Android or React Native?

If you need iOS and Android with one budget, [React Native](https://franamadis.com/services/react-native-app-development/) is usually the best value. Choose native Kotlin for Android-only products, heavy device integration or the highest performance.

### How much does it cost to publish on Google Play?

Google charges a one-time 25 USD fee to create a Google Play developer account. New personal accounts must also run a closed test before the first public release; we guide you through it.

### Can you bring my iPhone app to Android?

Yes. We rebuild it natively in Kotlin or, if both apps can share one codebase, we propose React Native for future updates.

### Do you test on real devices?

Yes. Besides emulators for different screen sizes and Android versions, every release is tested on physical devices before publishing.
