The Challenge

Launching your app was just the beginning. The real battle is keeping it alive.

Mobile platforms are moving targets. Every year, Apple and Google launch new OS versions, deprecate older APIs, update store guidelines, and introduce new screen aspect ratios. If you ignore your app, it will slowly degrade—loading times will increase, memory leaks will cause crashes on newer devices, and security flaws will expose user data. If your app experiences a sudden surge in traffic, a poorly scaled database or inefficient network polling logic can crash your entire backend. What's needed is systematic maintenance and optimization. Quecko provides the engineering oversight, monitoring tools, and codebase updates necessary to protect your software investment.

The Solution

Engineering Production-Grade Mobile App Maintenance & Scaling Services Infrastructure

1

Application Health & Monitoring Audit

We integrate real-time tracking (Crashlytics/Sentry), evaluate memory profiles, and audit backend API latency.

2

Technical Remediation & Optimization

Fixing database query bottlenecks, patching deprecated dependency APIs, and refactoring slow rendering loops.

3

OS Update Verification

Testing codebases against upcoming iOS and Android beta releases to identify potential crash vectors before the public launches.

4

Continuous Maintenance & Release Support

Setting up automated testing suites and managing ongoing app store updates to maintain compatibility.

Capabilities

Comprehensive App Maintenance & Scaling

Explore our technical specialties, engineering practices, and developer skills.

OS Compatibility Updates

Reviewing and updating codebases annually for new iOS and Android version compliance, replacing deprecated APIs, and optimizing layouts for new devices.

Crash Prevention & Bug Resolution

Setting up monitoring tools (Crashlytics, Sentry), tracking anomalies in real-time, profiling stack traces, and deploying fast, clean bug fixes.

Performance & Memory Profiling

Auditing application footprints. We resolve memory leaks, optimize garbage collection loops, compress assets, and improve local query execution.

API & Backend Scaling

Optimizing backend gateways to handle mobile traffic spikes, refactoring database queries, implementing caching strategies (Redis), and setting up CDNs.

Security & Dependency Patching

Auditing third-party libraries and SDK dependency trees, patching vulnerabilities, and updating encryption modules to maintain data safety.

Feature Modernization & Refactoring

Code refactoring to replace legacy patterns with modern syntax (e.g., migrating from UIKit to SwiftUI, or upgrading native bridges to JSI/Turbomodules).

Target Fit

Is This Service a Fit for You?

Ideal Match

  • Companies with launched apps experiencing stability or performance issues, startups needing ongoing support without full-time native hires, or enterprises needing to modernize legacy mobile codebases.

Not a Fit

  • Teams looking for a developer to simply build new graphics. We focus on technical stability, code refactoring, and backend scaling.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We integrate monitoring SDKs like Firebase Crashlytics or Sentry. When a crash occurs in production, the SDK captures the device details, OS version, and stack trace, sending it securely to our dashboard so our developers can write a patch.

Apple and Google release major OS updates every fall. These updates change system behaviors, deprecate old APIs, and introduce new security policies. Without updates, the app will eventually encounter layout bugs, background service failures, or get flagged as out of date by the store reviewers.

Yes. By refactoring slow database queries, setting up Redis caching for heavy endpoints, and placing media assets on CDNs (CloudFront), we can significantly reduce app loading latency and server loads without modifying the mobile app itself.

We verify updates in isolated developer branches. We run automated regression tests and check package dependency trees using tools like Snyk to ensure updates do not introduce security vulnerabilities or conflict with other modules.
