Why BitPointer for mobile & entertainment?

Cross-platform efficiency

With React Native or Flutter we develop one codebase for iOS and Android. That reduces development costs by up to 40% compared with two native apps – without compromising performance or native look and feel.

Streaming architecture

From the video transcode pipeline via CDN distribution to adaptive bitrate streaming (HLS/DASH): we build streaming platforms that deliver uninterrupted playback even with thousands of concurrent viewers.

User experience first

Good software will not be used if it looks bad. Our UX process starts with user research, moves through interactive prototypes to validated designs – so your app not only works, but is loved.

FAQ

Common questions about mobile app development & entertainment software

Both frameworks are suitable for cross-platform development. React Native is ideal if you have a React/JavaScript team or need tight browser/web integration. Flutter shines with consistent UI, excellent performance and a growing ecosystem. For especially graphics-intensive apps or a fully custom design system, we prefer Flutter. We decide together based on your requirements.

A streaming platform has several layers: ingest & transcoding (FFmpeg, AWS MediaConvert), storage (S3), CDN for global delivery, adaptive bitrate streaming (HLS/DASH) for variable bandwidths, a metadata backend and player integration. For live streaming, RTMP/SRT ingest and low-latency protocols also come into play. We size the architecture for your latency, quality and cost requirements.

A simple app with core features can be ready in 8–12 weeks. More complex apps with a custom backend, sophisticated business logic and a mature UX process typically need 3–6 months until the first release. We recommend an agile approach: launch an MVP early, iterate based on user feedback and expand step by step.

In-app purchases and subscriptions are handled via the native APIs (Apple StoreKit, Google Billing). We integrate server-side receipt validation to prevent fraud and connect payment data to your backend for entitlement management. Tools like RevenueCat can significantly reduce complexity and simplify cross-platform subscription management.

GDPR compliance in apps requires: a transparent privacy notice, consent management (especially for tracking and analytics), data minimization, secure storage (Keychain/Keystore for sensitive data), the right to erasure and data export, and GDPR-compliant analytics tools (no Google Analytics without consent). We implement privacy by design from the start.
