I want a straightforward mobile solution that lets boutique managers handle last-minute call-outs without headaches. The app must launch on both iOS and Android from day one and open straight into a clean flow where a manager can post an open shift, push it live, and then watch the responses roll in. Core experience • Managers create a shift card (date, time, pay, location, notes) and publish it. • Qualified associates receive an instant push notification, tap once to accept or decline, and the first confirmed response locks in the coverage. • Every user has a profile showing basic credentials, past ratings, and preferred boutiques so managers can review at a glance. • A lightweight in-app chat thread opens automatically between manager and confirmed staffer so last-minute details never leave the platform. Key requirements • Native-feeling interface on both platforms (React Native, Flutter or similar cross-platform stack is fine as long as performance remains smooth). • Real-time push notifications that remain reliable even when the app is closed. • Secure authentication (email, phone, or social), plus a simple onboarding flow that captures skills and availability. • Backend that can scale regionally, stores shift data, and prevents double booking. • Basic admin dashboard for me to manage boutiques, users, and reported issues. Deliverables 1. Fully functional iOS & Android app packages ready for App Store and Play Store submission. 2. Source code with clear documentation. 3. Deployed backend with API keys and database schema handed over. 4. Short Loom or Zoom walkthrough showing the posting-a-shift to acceptance flow works end-to-end. A clean, frictionless solution that boutique owners can rely on in an emergency is the final measure of success.

Hi, You’re looking for more than a mobile app , you need a calm, reliable way to turn emergency call-outs into confirmed coverage without confusion. I can build this as a smooth React Native or Flutter solution with secure login, shift posting, instant push alerts, one-tap accept/decline, in-app chat, and an admin dashboard for boutiques, users, and issue handling. I’ve delivered app and backend systems with real-time workflows, database-driven logic, notifications, and clean handoff documentation, so I’ll keep the manager flow simple while making the backend solid enough to prevent double booking and scale regionally. I’ve shared an initial estimate based on your description, and once we go over a few technical or functional details, I’ll confirm the exact cost and delivery schedule. Could you share whether you prefer React Native or Flutter, and if you already have a backend preference for Firebase, Node, or Laravel? Do you need the chat to support attachments or only text for the first release? Should ratings and boutique preferences be editable by managers, or only by staff profiles? Looking forward to your reply so we can finalize the exact plan. Thanks, Asad

Hey, getting that first confirmed response to lock in coverage instantly, while preventing double booking, is a smart detail for a shift app like this. I'd manage shift acceptance with a solid transaction system on the server, probably using a database lock or atomic update for real-time accuracy. The tricky part is usually making sure push notifications are always delivered reliably and instantly across both platforms, even when the app is closed, and I know how to tackle that. Are you leaning more towards React Native or Flutter for the cross-platform development?

The shift confirmation race is where these apps break—if two associates tap “accept” at once, you need a dead-simple locking mechanism in the backend, or you get double coverage and manager complaints. I built a similar immediate booking/confirmation flow for Live Connect (with approval chains and notifications—under NDA, shown on call). I'd use Flutter for launch-parity on both stores from one codebase, real-time push via Firebase, Node.js backend with transactional logic for shift lock, and a React dashboard for admin work. Do you want credentialing tied just to boutique approval, or does each associate upload formal docs/licenses? I can start this week if it fits. Pradeep

Hi, Basically this app will connect boutique managers and staff. The app will have two dashboard just like Uer has. One for the manager and other for the staff user. I can develop iOS and Android smartphones using Flutter and Laravel. Deliverables will be: - Manager app where they can create/view shifts & communicate with the staff. - Staff app where they get push notifications, accept/reject a shift and communicate with manager. - Super admin panel (web based) who will be able to manage both type of users and app content. Do you need any payment gateway integration? The messages between both manager + staff will be saved in database. Approx ETA = 4-5 weeks. Fix Price = $3750 I am a senior mobile app developer experienced with Flutter and React Native, specializing in building user-friendly applications with robust backend integrations. My expertise ensures that your app will be both functional and engaging for users. Should you need any info please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best, Mohammad
