Android Social Networking App Development

Job ID: 40610465

Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR

I need a skilled Android developer who can take my concept for a social networking platform and turn it into a polished, production-ready app. The goal is an intuitive space where users can create profiles, connect with one another, share updates in a scrollable feed, and communicate in real time.

We will start with a brief discovery call so I can walk you through the user flow and brand direction. From there, I expect you to handle architecture planning, UI implementation in line with Material Design guidelines, and integration of a reliable backend (Firebase, Supabase, or a stack you propose). Clean, well-commented Kotlin or modern Java is preferred, and the project should compile smoothly in the latest stable release of Android Studio.

Deliverables
• Complete Android Studio project with source code
• Signed APK / AAB ready for Play Store submission
• Basic admin or analytics panel setup (even a simple Firebase dashboard is fine)
• Read-me style documentation covering build steps, environment variables, and third-party services
• One post-handover bug-fix sprint (up to two weeks)

Acceptance criteria
• App installs and runs without crashes on Android 10 and above
• Users can register, log in, edit a profile, post updates (text and image), follow/unfollow, and exchange direct messages
• All network calls and user data are secured with HTTPS and authenticated requests
• UI matches provided mock-ups within reason, with responsive layouts for phones and small tablets

If you have experience shipping social apps, implementing push notifications, or scaling Firebase, that will be a huge plus. Let’s build something engaging together—show me examples of similar Android work and outline your proposed tech stack in your bid.
