The build runs across three phases. Each closes with a working deliverable and a review before the next begins.
PHASE 1 · DESIGN AND PROTOTYPING
User flows, wireframes, and a UI design system covering all 15 core screens. Delivered as an interactive Figma prototype so you can test the experience before code begins.
PHASE 2 · DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING
React Native build for iOS and Android, integration with your backend or third-party APIs, and a full QA cycle covering functionality, performance, and edge cases across target devices.
PHASE 3 · LAUNCH AND APP STORE SUBMISSION
Release builds signed and submitted to the Apple App Store and Google Play, store listing setup, and hands-on support through the review process until both apps are approved and live.
Not included: backend infrastructure hosting, third-party API costs, ongoing maintenance post-launch, and marketing or app store optimization work. New scope can be added in writing at any time.

The Freelance App Development Proposal template is a five-page document for putting your engagement on paper before it starts. It carries an overview with stat cards, objectives, a three-phase scope of work, an investment table with a computed total, and an acceptance page with inputs and signatures.
It is intentionally simple: rename what needs renaming in Bonsai, list your actual deliverables, and set the price. Merge fields handle the client details and date, and the last page collects a PO number, start date, and both signatures.
Everything below comes pre-configured. Turn sections on or off, edit the copy, or add your own — Bonsai remembers your choices for next time.
Can I edit every section? Yes — every heading, paragraph, stat, table row, and signature block is fully editable in Bonsai.
Can I add more pages? Yes — add, reorder, or duplicate pages once the template is open.
Do merge fields auto-fill? Yes — Sender, Receiver, and Date pull from your client contact and the current date automatically.
