mobile app development services in New Delhi

Last updated: October 2026 · Mobile apps for New Delhi businesses

Thinking about a mobile app in Delhi? I'm Arun Tyagi, a freelance developer in Sector 58, Noida. My approach to mobile is a little different from a typical app agency: I build the Laravel back end and API myself, and pair it with a React Native app for Android and iOS. One person owns both halves, so there is nobody to blame when the two don't talk to each other.

The commercial page for this kind of work is Laravel development, which covers the API side in detail. If your app needs subscriptions or multiple customer accounts, read Laravel SaaS development too.

Why the back end decides whether your app survives

Most failed apps I see in reviews did not fail on the screens. The screens were fine. They failed because the server was slow, notifications were unreliable, payments broke when two people tapped at the same time, or nobody could add a new feature without breaking an old one. That is a back-end problem, and it is the part I'm strongest in.

So when a Delhi founder comes to me with "I need an app like X", my first questions are about data and rules. Who are the users? What can each of them do? What happens when a payment fails? The interface comes after those answers.

What I build for Delhi clients

• Customer apps for local services: ordering, booking, memberships, loyalty points.
• Field and staff apps for sales and delivery teams, with offline-friendly screens and simple dashboards for managers.
• Marketplace-style apps with two sides (customers and providers), commissions and payouts.
• Companion apps for an existing web product, reusing the same Laravel API so you are not paying twice.

React Native, and when I'd say no to it

React Native lets one codebase run on Android and iOS, which keeps first-version costs down. It is a good fit for most business apps, including forms, lists, maps, push notifications, camera uploads and payments. I would think twice for apps built around heavy 3D graphics, advanced custom camera work or very deep hardware integration. If your idea falls there, I'll tell you rather than take the job and struggle.

Proof from my back-end work

I don't have a Delhi app-store portfolio to wave around, so here is what I can show. PayBev is a payments build where secure flows and admin visibility were critical. eZanga is a live product that kept running through constant change. Dubai Charity covers donations, events and multi-language content, delivered remotely. All three rely on the kind of API discipline a mobile app needs: versioned endpoints, proper authentication and careful release handling.

How an app project runs

1. Discovery call. Free, 30 minutes. We define the single most important journey a user must complete.
2. Written Phase 1. Screens, API endpoints, third-party services, timeline and price in INR.
3. API first. I build and test the Laravel endpoints so the app has something solid to talk to.
4. App build with test releases. You install builds on your own phone each week.
5. Store submission and launch. Play Store and App Store listings need patience and paperwork. I guide you through both.

What you will need to prepare

Have developer accounts ready early: Google Play is a one-time fee, and Apple's is yearly. Apple also asks for business verification in some cases, which can take days. Sort out your app name, logo, privacy policy and support email before launch week, because store reviewers will ask for them.

Is Delhi location relevant?

Somewhat. I can meet you in Delhi or Noida for the kickoff, and being in the same region makes early planning smoother. After that, the work is remote with weekly demos. I also work with teams abroad, so if you have a Gulf or overseas arm, the Dubai page explains how that works.

Next step: read the Laravel development page for the API side, then WhatsApp your app idea or book a call.
