App development company in Bangalore
Hostlyx is an app development company in Bangalore that builds iOS and Android apps, together with the backend, admin panel and website they depend on. We write a fixed scope with you before any code, recommend native or cross-platform with reasons, host the backend on servers our developers manage, and submit the app to both stores in your developer accounts.
Bengaluru founders often get app quotes that cover the screens and little else. The backend, the admin panel your team will use every day, push notifications, payment setup, store submission and hosting turn up later as extra work. We put all of those in the written scope first, so the price you approve is for an app that actually runs in production.
For most startups and growing businesses we recommend one cross-platform codebase in Flutter or React Native, which covers iOS and Android together. Native Swift or Kotlin makes sense when an app leans heavily on device features. Indian apps usually need Razorpay and UPI payments, OTP login and GST invoices, and we plan those from the start rather than bolting them on before launch.
The backend runs on servers our developers manage, so when an API slows down or a notification stops sending, the people who wrote the code can look at the server straight away. The apps are published under your own Apple and Google developer accounts, and the source code is yours.

Questions people ask
How much does app development cost in Bangalore?
Indian market bands run from about ₹50,000 for a simple app to ₹15 lakh and more for an enterprise build, depending on features, backend and platforms. We quote a fixed price after discovery. Our guide on app development cost in India breaks down the main factors.
Should I build a native app or use Flutter or React Native?
For most business and startup apps, one Flutter or React Native codebase covers iOS and Android at lower cost. Native Swift or Kotlin is worth it when the app depends heavily on device hardware or platform-specific features. We recommend one in writing for your project.
Do you build the backend and admin panel too?
Yes. The backend API, database and the admin panel your team uses are part of the scope, and we host the backend on servers our developers manage. If you already have a backend, we can build the app against it.
Who owns the app and source code?
Your company does. The app is published under your own Apple and Google developer accounts, and you receive the source code and access to the backend and database. If you move to another developer later, everything they need is already in your hands.
Can you add Razorpay and UPI payments to my app?
Yes. We integrate Razorpay for UPI, cards and netbanking in Indian apps, and Stripe where you sell abroad, with payment, failure and refund flows tested on real devices before release. Payment gateway fees are paid directly to Razorpay or Stripe.
