Mobile app design and development for B2B SaaS
The short answer
Most B2B products need a mobile surface for a narrow set of jobs, not a full port of the web app. The work starts by identifying which those are, then designs and builds them as part of one product rather than a separate app with its own conventions.
The expensive mistake is treating mobile as a second product. Different people, different time, and a year later it's diverged far enough that reconciling it takes a rewrite.
Scope it to the mobile jobs
Field capture, approvals, notifications, quick lookups. The things people genuinely do away from a desk. Porting the full web interface onto a phone produces an app that's worse at everything and rarely gets opened twice.
One product, two surfaces
Shared conventions, shared vocabulary, and a design system that covers both. It costs a little more up front and avoids the divergence that otherwise shows up about a year in.

Common questions
Cross-platform covers most B2B cases well and halves the surface you have to maintain. Native is worth it when the app leans heavily on device capabilities or needs performance cross-platform frameworks struggle with. We make that call during scoping, not by default.
Yes, including the review process and the assets each store wants. Budget time for review cycles. First submissions get rejected fairly often for reasons that have nothing to do with the app.
