Know what's broken. Know what to fix. Fast.
We answer two questions: do users understand how to use this app, and are they happy using it?
A fixed-fee technical read on your mobile app: security, scalability, user flows, and the places it quietly breaks. Every audit covers security vulnerabilities, scalability, reusability, happy and unhappy user flows, accidental breaks, and efficiency on real devices, against real code. You get a written report, a recorded walkthrough on Full Audit, and a live call. Every report signed by Chris Martinez. Spend on the real fix, not the loudest guess.
Is this you?
If any of these sound familiar, a technical audit is the right next step.
Your codebase inherited problems
A contractor, AI-generated code, or a departing team left you with token handling, access control, or audit-logging problems you can't see from the outside.
Crashes or ratings trending down
Your Crashlytics or Sentry is lighting up, crash-free rate slipping, store ratings falling, and nobody on the team can point to the release that introduced it.
You're about to ship to the App Store
A pre-launch technical read before you submit: catch rejection risks, privacy-manifest gaps, performance issues, and architectural red flags before Apple or Google do.
Your first enterprise customer wants proof
A prospect asked for technical diligence, a BAA, or a security review before they'll sign. You need a written read from a senior engineer, not a generic policy doc.
You migrated and something might have broken
Xamarin → React Native, Java → Kotlin, Objective-C → Swift. Migrations silently break encryption, audit trails, and access controls. You need proof they didn't.
You inherited a repo you don't understand
You just got the code from an acquisition or a departing contractor. You need to know what you actually own (and where the landmines are) before you touch anything.
What we look for
Every audit covers six investigative areas and delivers a severity-ranked findings report.
Security vulnerabilities
Token handling, keychain, network security, third-party SDK risk. HIPAA / PCI / GDPR mapping when your workload is regulated.
Scalability
Can this codebase carry your planned roadmap without a rewrite? Dependency rot, architecture red flags, crash-rate trajectory.
Reusability
Reusable vs brittle code. Where a small change requires changes in ten places, and where a refactor would pay for itself.
Happy-path and unhappy-path flows
We use your app the way your users will: the happy path, and every unhappy path where things quietly break. Tested on real devices.
Accidental breaks
Regression risk, silent failures, edge cases that only surface in production. The things that make users churn without filing a support ticket.
Efficiency and performance
Cold start, frame rate, memory, battery, load times. A 3-second delay is enough to frustrate a real user. That is the bar.
How the audit works
Simple, senior-engineer-led, no hourly surprises.
Book a 30-minute intro call
30 minutes, free. We confirm the scope, the tier, and any add-ons that fit your architecture.
Pay and grant access
Stripe checkout. Then read-only repo access (GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket). NDA provided; signed BAA on request for HIPAA contexts.
We audit
Chris runs the audit on real devices, against the same investigation template every time. Read-only: no writes, no deploys, no production credentials.
Delivery + walkthrough
Written report, recorded walkthrough (Full Audit), and a 1-hour live call to review findings. Repo access removed immediately after. You receive a tear-down confirmation email.
Two tiers. Scope-based add-ons. Pick the device, pick the depth.
Each tier audits your app's primary device (phone, tablet, OR wearable). The add-on grid below handles secondary devices, a second native codebase, cross-device logic, and strategic recommendations. The audit is a standalone product. Multiple apps are quoted separately.
Quick Scan
For small apps, solo founders, urgent second opinions.
Starting at $2,500
- Severity-ranked findings (Critical / High / Medium / Low) with a file reference per finding
- Security vulnerabilities and privacy-boundary check (surface level: token handling, auth, third-party SDKs)
- Performance and efficiency read (cold start, lag, frame drops)
- Happy-path and unhappy-path user-flow review on real devices
- Store compliance review (App Store, Play Store, or watchOS / Wear OS as applicable)
- Written report + 1-hour live call
- Every report signed by Chris
Full Audit
Deep read with a prioritized action plan. Recommended for most prospects.
Starting at $5,000
- Everything in Quick Scan, at greater depth
- Deep code read: architecture, data flow, state management, where patterns break down at scale
- Scalability and reusability read: can this codebase carry your planned roadmap without a rewrite?
- Regression-risk review: what's fragile, what breaks when you touch it, where silent failures hide
- Prioritized action plan: not just what's wrong, but what to fix in what order
- Recorded walkthrough against your actual app (shareable with your team)
- Regulatory review when applicable: HIPAA, PCI, or GDPR mapping for workloads that handle protected data
- Proposed follow-on engagement with a specific dollar number (optional)
Out of scope? We'll quote separately before we start. You always know the ceiling.
Scope add-ons
Layer onto either tier. Add whichever surfaces and scope apply to your app. Prices are per add-on, per engagement.
Phone surface
+$500
Adds iPhone + Android phone testing when phone is a secondary surface. Install on real devices, verify responsive layouts, 1-page addendum.
Tablet surface
+$500
Adds iPad + Android tablet testing. Split-view, drag-and-drop, tablet-specific UI patterns.
Wearable surface
+$750
Adds watchOS / Wear OS: complications, companion pairing, battery impact, HealthKit / Health Connect integration.
Widgets
+$625
iOS Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Live Activities, Dynamic Island, Android App Widgets. WidgetKit timelines, App Group data sharing, deep-link paths.
Second native codebase
+$750 Quick Scan · +$1,250 Full Audit
For apps with separate native iOS (Swift) and native Android (Kotlin) codebases. Not needed for cross-platform apps (React Native, Flutter, Expo). One codebase already covers both phones.
Cross-device flows
+$750
Sync, handoff, and multi-device state between phone↔tablet or phone↔wearable. Maps the handoff paths, tests them on real devices, documents state-sync risks.
Strategy add-on
+$1,200 (Full Audit only)
Extended call (~90 min total), written strategic recommendations doc (business-level: build/rewrite/hire timing, platform strategy, architectural bets), 2 follow-up questions within 14 days, optional partner-ecosystem intros (Sentry, RevenueCat, Amplitude).
Audit is a standalone product
You pay for an honest technical read on security, performance, user flows, and the places your app quietly breaks. If the audit surfaces follow-up work, we quote it separately on its own merits. Multiple apps are quoted as separate audits.
