Ongoing delivery in practice
DocVita: continuous Flutter and backend development
Tg Apps develops and evolves DocVita's Flutter applications and backend services. The public case describes the product work and release responsibilities behind this continuing engagement.
What we establish before changing the app
- A reproducible build and a clear view of the Flutter, Android, iOS, and backend dependencies.
- Ownership of repositories, signing, store accounts, environments, and release access.
- The user journeys, reported failures, and upcoming changes that determine the first useful delivery.
What maintenance can cover
- Flutter SDK, package, plugin, and platform updates with compatibility checks.
- Bug fixes, performance work, accessibility improvements, and changes to existing product flows.
- Backend and API adjustments, builds, App Store and Play Store submissions, monitoring, and release documentation.
When this is the right service
- Your Flutter app is in use and needs a dependable rhythm of fixes and new releases.
- Another team built the app and you need continuity under your own accounts and repositories.
- Platform changes, integrations, or product plans require coordinated app and backend work.
What is included in Flutter app maintenance?
Maintenance keeps a working product usable while its platforms, connected services, and user needs change. We agree on the active work before starting.
- Review reported bugs, crash data when available, store notices, dependencies, and the next planned features.
- Prioritize corrections and updates that protect the main user journey or unblock a release.
- Deliver improvements with build verification, release notes, and a clear next-work list.
How do we take over an app built by another team?
The first step is to make the existing app buildable and understand the systems it depends on. That assessment shapes the first milestone.
- Check repository access, Flutter and native project setup, signing, environments, and store ownership.
- Run the app and test a critical journey against the intended backend, then identify missing access or documentation.
- Agree on a first observable result, such as a reproducible build, a fixed blocker, or a release candidate.
Which updates should happen first?
The order depends on user impact, release requirements, security, and the product roadmap. A newer package version alone is not a release plan.
- Address failures in essential flows and requirements that affect store submission or platform compatibility.
- Assess Flutter SDK and plugin changes together with native code, backend contracts, and regression risk.
- Schedule lower-impact improvements around the agreed release cadence.
How does a fix reach users?
A merged change is only part of the work. The release path includes verification, store delivery, and observation after publication.
- Reproduce the problem, define the expected behavior, and test the affected flow on relevant devices.
- Prepare signed builds and store submissions through the client-owned accounts, using a staged release when appropriate.
- Check the released journey and available error signals, then record what changed and what remains open.
How is ongoing support organized?
The working rhythm follows the product and the selected engagement model. Priorities, contact, and response expectations are agreed with the client.
- Set a regular review of bugs, planned features, dependencies, and upcoming releases.
- Define who can change priorities, approve a release, and provide access to connected systems.
- Agree on coverage for launch windows or urgent incidents as part of the support scope.
Frequently asked questions
Can you maintain a Flutter app built by another company?
Yes. We assess the source, build process, accounts, backend dependencies, and current release before agreeing on the first delivery.
Can you update Flutter and the app's plugins?
Yes. We check compatibility with Android, iOS, native code, and connected services, then verify the affected user journeys before release.
Do you also maintain the backend?
We can work on the APIs and services connected to the app when they are part of the agreed scope. App and backend changes are planned together when a feature depends on both.
What if the app cannot be built or published today?
We first identify the build or access blocker. If the release path needs recovery work, the app rescue process defines a focused first milestone before ongoing maintenance.
