I build AI-powered iOS and Android apps end to end — wireframe to App Store — then help scale them with performance marketing. 50+ apps shipped · 100k+ downloads · 3.8k+ store ratings · 4.9★ average client rating across Fiverr and Upwork. What I do: • Mobile development — React Native, Flutter, Swift, Kotlin, TypeScript. Native-feel apps, including full App Store and Play Store submission. • AI integration — OpenAI, vision models and NLP for recommendations, scanning, chat and document processing. • Monetisation and analytics — RevenueCat subscriptions and paywall testing, Firebase, AppsFlyer attribution. • Growth — Meta, TikTok and Apple Search Ads campaigns wired to real retention data, not just installs. I've shipped products across health and fitness, education, finance, beauty, productivity and wellness — including an AI image enhancement app (Refine AI), a rewards-based step tracker (Fit Sprint) and an online learning platform (Relearn). I'm also co-founder of Praidux (praidux.com), a design and development studio, so when a project needs a product designer or back-end engineer alongside me, I can bring in a team I've already worked with rather than sub-contracting blind. My hours overlap with UK and EU time zones daily. You get a weekly demo, repo access from day one, and you talk to me directly — not an account manager. Portfolio: umar-sipra.framer.website

Work Experience

Co-Founder & Lead Mobile / AI Developer at Praidux
January 1, 2023 - Present
Co-founded a product design and development studio building SaaS platforms, AI-powered mobile apps and web experiences for startup founders and online brands. I lead mobile and AI engineering: React Native, Flutter, Swift and Kotlin builds, OpenAI and vision-model integrations, RevenueCat subscriptions, Firebase, and AppsFlyer attribution. Shipped projects include Refine AI (AI image enhancement), Fit Sprint (rewards-based step tracker), Relearn (online learning platform) and VRE Club (e-commerce). I also run the growth side — Meta, TikTok and Apple Search Ads — so apps are measured on retention and revenue, not installs.
Freelance Mobile App Developer & Growth Marketer at Independent (Fiverr & Upwork)
January 1, 2020 - Present
Built and shipped 50+ iOS and Android apps for clients worldwide, with 100k+ combined downloads and 3.8k+ store ratings, holding a 4.9★ rating across Fiverr and Upwork. Work spanned health and fitness, education, finance, beauty, productivity, Islamic utilities and wellness: React Native and Flutter builds, native Swift and Kotlin modules, OpenAI and vision-model features, subscription paywalls via RevenueCat, Firebase back ends, and App Store / Play Store submission. Many clients stayed on for growth work — AppsFlyer attribution plus paid acquisition on Meta, TikTok and Apple Search Ads.

    VRE Club — immersive e-commerce for VR hardware & gaming

    A storefront that feels like the product it sells.

    The brief. A VR hardware and gaming brand selling to a community that judges a site by how it feels. The store had to be immersive without becoming slow, and the client’s own team had to be able to run it without a developer.

    What I built

    • Motion-led storefront and product discovery flow built around the brand, with performance budgets so the animation never costs load time
    • Product catalogue, cart and checkout with payments integration
    • CMS setup so the client’s team publishes products, drops and content themselves
    • Brand identity and interface designed alongside the build rather than handed over as a static spec
    • Responsive from the ground up — most of the audience arrives on mobile

    Relearn — online learning platform (web + mobile)

    Course delivery, student progress and instructor tooling in one system — web and mobile.

    The brief. Most course platforms are built for dumping content, not for teaching. Relearn needed a student relationship layer: structured course delivery, visible progress, and tooling that lets instructors see who is falling behind — working as well on a phone during a commute as on a laptop.

    What I built

    • Structured course delivery with modules, lessons and resumable progress synced across web and mobile
    • Student progress and retention dashboard for instructors, plus role-based access for admins, instructors and students
    • Shared design system across web and mobile so features ship once instead of twice
    • Auth, media handling and notifications; back end designed for term-based cohorts rather than one-off purchases
    • Discovery and UX first, then front end and back end built in parallel to hit an academic-term launch date

    Fit Sprint — step tracker with a rewards economy (iOS & Android)

    A step counter people actually come back to — because walking earns something.

    The brief. Step trackers are a commodity: the platform already counts steps for free. Retention only comes from giving someone a reason to open the app tomorrow.

    What I built

    • Native-feel step tracking on top of Apple HealthKit and Android health / motion APIs, with reliable background counting and battery-conscious sync
    • A rewards economy that converts daily activity into redeemable points, with streaks and goals to drive repeat sessions
    • Subscription tier and paywall via RevenueCat; Firebase for auth, user data and remote config
    • Analytics and AppsFlyer attribution instrumented before launch, so paid acquisition on Meta and TikTok could be judged on day-7 retention instead of install volume
    • App Store and Play Store submission, including health-data permission and privacy disclosures

    Refine AI — AI image enhancement app for iOS & Android

    AI-powered photo enhancement, built as a cross-platform consumer app.

    The brief. Take a heavy AI upscaling and restoration pipeline and turn it into a mobile app that feels instant, monetises through subscriptions, and passes App Store and Play Store review.

    What I built

    • Cross-platform mobile app wrapping vision-model based image upscaling, restoration and enhancement
    • Onboarding flow designed for conversion, with a subscription paywall managed through RevenueCat so pricing and trial length can be A/B tested without a release
    • Firebase for auth, storage and remote config; background job queue so large enhancement jobs process without freezing the UI
    • Full App Store and Play Store submission, including review compliance for AI-generated content
    • Analytics and AppsFlyer attribution wired in from day one, then paid acquisition on Meta and TikTok measured against retention rather than installs
