Existing React Web App

Capacitor Developer — Publish Existing React Web App to iOS App Store + Google Play OVERVIEW We're an early-stage fintech education startup with a working, production web app (React, hosted). We need an experienced mobile developer to package a FOCUSED version of our app as native iOS and Android apps and successfully publish both to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The web codebase is already built and already has Capacitor scaffolding in place. We are NOT looking to rebuild the app — we need someone who can configure, build, test on real devices, and navigate the full app-store submission and approval process for both platforms. IMPORTANT: This is NOT a "wrap the entire dashboard" job. Our web app is information-dense. We want a focused, mobile-appropriate build — a clean, simplified experience (core screens: watchlist, alerts/notifications, a single chart view, and our AI coach chat). We'll provide the exact scope of screens. Building a thoughtful, native-feeling mobile UX matters more than cramming in every web feature. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Configure Capacitor (or advise if a better approach exists) against our existing React web app - Implement a focused set of mobile screens (we'll specify — roughly 4–6 core surfaces) - Set up native push notifications (APNs for iOS, FCM for Android) - Configure app icons, splash screens, bundle IDs, app metadata - Test on real iOS and Android devices - Handle the full submission process for BOTH stores, including responding to review feedback / rejections and resubmitting until approved - Provide a short handoff doc so we can push future updates REQUIRED EXPERIENCE - Proven track record shipping Capacitor (or React Native) apps to BOTH the Apple App Store and Google Play — please share links to apps you've published - Experience navigating Apple App Store review (especially Guideline 4.2 "minimum functionality" for web-based apps — we need this avoided) - Native push notification setup (APNs + FCM) - Comfortable working with an existing React codebase you didn't write NICE TO HAVE - Fintech / finance app experience - Bilingual app experience (our app is English + Spanish) CONFIDENTIALITY REQUIREMENT — PLEASE READ Our app contains proprietary methodology and business logic. Before any access to our codebase or repository, the selected developer must sign our Independent Contractor Confidentiality / Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). This is non-negotiable. The NDA includes standard confidentiality and non-compete-on-our-IP terms. Please confirm in your proposal that you're willing to sign an NDA before code access. (Apply freely — you do NOT need to sign anything to submit a proposal; the NDA is only required once we select you and before we share the repo.) LOGISTICS - We will provide: the existing repo (after NDA), the focused screen scope, brand assets (logo/colors), and our Apple Developer + Google Play accounts (or guidance to set them up). - Platform: iOS + Android (both required). - We do not have a Mac — your build setup must not depend on us having one (you handle builds, or use a cloud build service). TO APPLY, PLEASE INCLUDE: 1. Links to 2–3 apps you've shipped to both stores (Capacitor or React Native) 2. A one-line confirmation you'll sign an NDA before code access 3. Your estimated timeline and quote (fixed-price preferred) 4. One sentence on how you'd approach avoiding Apple's Guideline 4.2 rejection
