Android app
development

Android owns the majority of the global market. We build Android apps that work across devices and give your users a consistent, reliable experience.

Free 30-min strategy call. No pressure, no pitch deck.

Reaching the
broader market

Android has around 72 percent of global smartphone market share. In Australia, Android users make up roughly 45 to 50 percent of the market and growing. For products targeting a broad consumer audience, skipping Android means leaving a significant portion of your potential users behind.

The complexity with Android has historically been device fragmentation. Samsung, Pixel, Xiaomi, Oppo. Different screen sizes, different hardware, different manufacturer skins on top of Android. Building natively in Kotlin means testing across dozens of device variations. Building in Flutter solves most of this automatically because Flutter renders its own UI layer rather than relying on the manufacturer's implementation.

We build in Flutter because it gives you production-quality Android alongside iOS from a single codebase. The Google Play Store review process is faster and less restrictive than Apple's, which generally means quicker launch timelines.

If you are building for e-commerce, logistics, on-demand services, or any product targeting a broad demographic, Android coverage from day one is the right call. We help you make the platform decision clearly in our strategy phase so you are building for the right audience from the start.

What goes into
a Rebelled Android app

Every Android app we build covers the full range of device sizes, performance levels, and Google Play requirements.

Cross-device compatibility

Flutter renders consistently across Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus, and the rest. Your app looks and works the same whether someone is on a $200 phone or a flagship device.

Google Play ready

We handle the full Google Play submission process including app listing optimisation, privacy policy, content rating, and review management. You go live without the admin headache.

Android-native integrations

Google Maps, Firebase, Google Pay, and Android-specific system features integrated where relevant. We use the right tools for your product, not a one-size-fits-all stack.

iOS as well, at no extra cost

Because we build in Flutter, your iOS app comes from the same codebase as your Android app. You do not have to choose. Both platforms launch together.

Three phases.
One clear outcome.

01

Phase one

Inception: design your vision

We validate your idea, design your app with Android's Material Design principles in mind, and give you an interactive prototype before development starts.

  • Validate your idea and define the core product
  • Design following Android and Material Design standards
  • Build an interactive prototype for user testing
  • Plan the tech stack and backend architecture

What you get

Validated product strategy
Android-optimised designs
Interactive prototype
Full tech roadmap
The outcome: You see your app before we build it. You know what it costs and what it will do.
02

Phase two

Invention: build it right

We build in Flutter for Android (and iOS simultaneously). Weekly demos, full transparency, and Google Play submission handled end to end.

  • Flutter build targeting Android and iOS together
  • Tested across major Android device types and sizes
  • Google Play submission and review process managed
  • Analytics and feedback tools integrated pre-launch

What you get

Your app live on Google Play
Code you fully own
Founder Accelerator access
The outcome: Your Android app is live. First users are in. The real data starts flowing.
03

Phase three

Ascension: grow it fast

You are live on Google Play. We coach you through growth strategy, Google Play Store Optimisation, and scaling your Android user base.

  • Google Play Store Optimisation for discoverability
  • Retention and engagement mechanics for Android users
  • Growth coaching from someone who has built and scaled products
The outcome: You know how to grow your Android user base into a real, profitable business.

How much does Android app development cost in Australia?

Android app development in Australia typically starts from $40,000 to $70,000 for an MVP. Building in Flutter means your Android and iOS apps come from the same codebase, which reduces total cost compared to building each natively. Our cost guide has detailed breakdowns by app type.

Should I launch on Android or iOS first?

We recommend launching on both simultaneously in most cases. With Flutter, you get both platforms from one codebase at no extra cost. Limiting your reach at launch can hurt early traction and app store ranking signals. We will discuss this in the strategy phase if your user research points strongly to one platform.

Is Android harder to develop for than iOS?

Android has more device fragmentation, meaning your app needs to look and work correctly across a wider range of screen sizes and hardware. Building in Flutter handles most of this automatically. The Google Play review process is faster and less strict than Apple's, which generally means quicker launch timelines.

How long does Android app development take?

A well-scoped Android MVP takes 10 to 14 weeks from strategy to Google Play. Google Play review is faster than Apple's, typically one to three days. When we build in Flutter for both platforms, Android and iOS launch at the same time.

Do you build natively in Kotlin or using Flutter?

We primarily build in Flutter for most founders because it delivers native-quality Android (and iOS) from one codebase at lower cost. Native Kotlin is the right choice for very deep Android-specific integrations that Flutter does not support, but that is the exception rather than the rule. We will recommend the right approach for your specific product.

What is the Google Play Store fee?

The Google Play Developer account is a one-time USD $25 fee, compared to Apple's annual AUD $149. Google's review process is also faster and generally less restrictive, which can mean quicker time to market for your first version.
