Hello Richard,
Do you already have backend APIs ready for registration, search, and messaging, or should those also be planned with the mobile app? -

Hi Richard, will the iOS and Android apps need to share a single backend, or are you open to separate optimised implementations per platform? This affects how I architect the messaging system and data sync layer from day one and gets it right rather than retrofitting it later.
-

Two Quick Questions
1. Is the backend already available through the existing web framework, or will API development also be required?
2. Will the internal messaging system require real-time chat functionality or standard messaging workflows? -

Are designs ready? -

Hello
Richard, thank you so much for providing detailed information about your job.
Sunil here from ExultCyberSolution P Ltd
1. Do you already have backend APIs ready for user registration, profile management, search functionality, and the internal messaging system?
2. Should the iOS app be developed in Swift/SwiftUI and the Android app in Kotlin, or do you have any specific native technology preference?
3. Will the advanced internal messaging system require real-time chat, push notifications, media/file sharing, read receipts, or message history?
4. After NDA execution, will you provide the Claude.ai design assets as Figma/screens, an HTML prototype, or only visual screenshots?
Looking forward to your feedback
Best Regards,
Sunil

Richard, are you still open for this project?
-

Before moving forward, I would love to clarify a few things:
• Is the backend/API already developed, or would you need backend development support as well?
• Are the UI/UX designs available in Figma, or will they be shared in another format?
• For the messaging feature, are you looking for real time chat, file sharing, push notifications, and read receipts?
• Will there be any subscription, payment, or premium membership features within the app?
I am happy to sign NDA before proceed. -

Questions
Do you require fully native development for both platforms (Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android), or would React Native/Flutter still be considered if there are no recurring licensing costs?
Is there an existing backend and API layer, or is backend development included in the scope?
How advanced is the messaging system (real-time chat, typing indicators, read receipts, file sharing, group messaging, etc.)?
Does the search functionality rely on a custom database, geolocation, or external data sources?
Will push notifications be required for messages and user activity?
Are there different user roles and permission levels within the platform?
Has the Claude-generated design already been converted into detailed UI specifications, or will additional UX refinement be needed?
What are your expectations around offline support and data synchronization?
Do you have a target launch date and planned user volume for the first release?
Will the NDA package include technical architecture documentation and API specifications, or primarily design assets and business requirements?
