Building a mobile app with Kotlin? Let us review it.
Expert code review for mobile apps built with Kotlin. We fix Kotlin-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Kotlin issues we find
Real problems from Kotlin codebases we've reviewed.
Coroutine scope mismanagement
Launching coroutines with GlobalScope or unstructured scopes that outlive their intended lifecycle, causing memory leaks and zombie operations.
Null safety bypasses with !!
Using the non-null assertion operator (!!) to force past null checks instead of safe calls (?.) or elvis operator (?:), causing NullPointerExceptions.
Missing lifecycle awareness
Android components that don't respect Activity/Fragment lifecycle, continuing operations after destruction and causing crashes or memory leaks.
Insecure SharedPreferences
Storing authentication tokens and sensitive data in plain SharedPreferences instead of EncryptedSharedPreferences or Android Keystore.
Mobile App challenges to solve
Key mobile app concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
App Store and Play Store approval
Apple and Google have strict review guidelines covering permissions, privacy policies, content ratings, and technical requirements. AI-generated apps frequently get rejected for missing privacy disclosures, requesting unnecessary permissions, or failing to handle edge cases that reviewers specifically test for.
Offline functionality and network handling
Mobile users lose connectivity constantly — in elevators, on subways, in rural areas. AI tools build apps that assume a constant internet connection. Without offline caching, request queuing, and graceful degradation, your app shows blank screens or crashes when the network drops.
Device fragmentation and screen sizes
Your app needs to work on hundreds of different devices — from small Android phones to large tablets, with notches, punch-holes, and different aspect ratios. AI-generated layouts often break on devices other than the one used during development.
Performance and battery drain
Mobile users notice when an app drains their battery or feels sluggish. Unoptimized rendering, excessive API polling, background processes that never stop, and memory leaks are common in AI-generated mobile code. These issues cause uninstalls faster than missing features.
What we check
Key areas we review for Kotlin mobile app projects.
App Store compliance — privacy policy, permissions, content guidelines
Network handling — offline mode, retry logic, connection state management
Device compatibility — layout on different screen sizes and OS versions
Performance — rendering speed, memory usage, battery impact

Frequently asked questions
Can you review a mobile app built with Kotlin?
Yes. We regularly audit Kotlin mobile app projects and understand the specific patterns and pitfalls of this combination. Our review covers security, performance, and deployment readiness.
What issues do you find in Kotlin mobile apps?
Common issues include coroutine scope mismanagement and null safety bypasses with !! on the Kotlin side, combined with mobile app-specific concerns like app store and play store approval and offline functionality and network handling. We check for all of these and more.
How do I make my Kotlin mobile app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of issues. For Kotlin mobile app projects, the typical path is: fix security gaps, address mobile app-specific requirements, optimize Kotlin performance, then configure deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How long does it take to audit a Kotlin mobile app?
Our code audit delivers a full report within 24 hours. For Kotlin mobile app projects, we check security, architecture, performance, and deployment readiness across all Kotlin-specific patterns. Fixes are scoped separately with a fixed quote.
