Mobile App challenges we solve
Common mobile app issues in apps built with Supermaven or Cursor.
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.
Push notifications
Setting up push notifications requires server-side infrastructure, device token management, platform-specific configuration (APNs for iOS, FCM for Android), and proper permission handling. AI tools generate a basic notification call but skip the entire delivery pipeline.
Secure local storage
Mobile apps store auth tokens, user preferences, and cached data on-device. AI tools often use insecure storage methods (plain shared preferences or AsyncStorage) instead of encrypted keystores. Anyone with physical access to the device could extract sensitive data.
