+# Mobile Development Best Practices
+
+Cross-platform best practices for modern mobile development (2024-2025).
+
+## Mobile-First Design Principles
+
+### Core Principles
+1. **Content First**: Remove chrome, focus on content
+2. **Progressive Disclosure**: Hide complexity behind layers
+3. **Thumb-Friendly**: Primary actions within reach
+4. **Performance Budget**: <2s launch, <1s screen load
+5. **Offline-First**: Design for unreliable networks
+
+### Touch Targets
+- **iOS**: 44x44px minimum (HIG guideline)
+- **Android**: 48x48px minimum (Material Design)
+- **Optimal**: 44-57px for important actions
+- **Spacing**: 8px minimum between targets
+
+### Typography
+- **iOS**: San Francisco (system font)
+- **Android**: Roboto (Material)
+- **Minimum**: 16px body text (accessibility)
+- **Line height**: 1.5x for readability
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+### Launch Time Optimization
+**Targets:**
+- Cold start: <2s
+- Warm start: <1s
+- Hot start: <0.5s
+
+**Techniques:**
+- Defer non-critical initialization
+- Lazy load dependencies
+- Preload critical data only
+- Show UI before data ready
+
+### Memory Management
+**Targets:**
+- Typical screen: <100MB
+- Peak usage: <200MB
+
+**Techniques:**
+- Image pagination/virtualization
+- Release resources in background
+- Profile with Instruments/Profiler
+- Avoid retain cycles/memory leaks
+
+**React Native Example:**
+```javascript
+// Use FlatList instead of ScrollView for long lists
+<FlatList
+  data={items}
+  renderItem={({ item }) => <ItemCard item={item} />}
+  keyExtractor={(item) => item.id}
+  initialNumToRender={10}
+  maxToRenderPerBatch={10}
+  windowSize={5}
+/>
+```
+
+### Network Optimization
+**Techniques:**
+- Batch API requests
+- Cache aggressively
+- Compress images (WebP, AVIF)
+- Use CDN for static assets
+- Implement request deduplication
+
+**Example Strategy:**
+```
+User opens screen
+├─ Show cached data immediately (stale-while-revalidate)
+├─ Fetch fresh data in background
+└─ Update UI when fresh data arrives
+```
+
+### Battery Optimization
+**Techniques:**
+- Batch network requests
+- Reduce GPS accuracy when possible
+- Use push instead of polling
+- Respect Doze Mode (Android)
+- Background App Refresh (iOS)
+
+**Targets:**
+- Active use: <5% per hour
+- Background: <1% per hour
+
+## Offline-First Architecture
+
+### Local Storage Options
+**React Native:**
+- AsyncStorage (small data, <6MB)
+- Realm (complex objects, relationships)
+- SQLite (relational data)
+- MMKV (fastest key-value)
+
+**Flutter:**
+- SharedPreferences (small data)
+- Hive (NoSQL, fast)
+- Drift (SQLite wrapper)
+- ObjectBox (object database)
+
+**iOS:**
+- UserDefaults (small data)
+- Core Data (complex objects)
+- SwiftData (modern replacement)
+- Realm
+
+**Android:**
+- SharedPreferences (small data)
+- Room (SQLite ORM)
+- Realm
+- DataStore (Preferences + Proto)
+
+### Data Synchronization Strategies
+
+**1. Write-Through Cache**
+```
+User makes change
+├─ Update local database immediately
+├─ Update UI optimistically
+├─ Queue sync operation
+└─ Sync to server in background
+```
+
+**2. Hybrid Sync (Push + Pull)**
+```
+Push Sync (Real-time)
+├─ WebSocket connection for critical updates
+└─ Immediate notification of changes
+
+Pull Sync (Periodic)
+├─ Periodic polling for non-critical data
+├─ Pull on app foreground
+└─ Incremental sync (only changes since last sync)
+```
+
+**3. Conflict Resolution**
+- **Last-write-wins**: Use timestamps
+- **Operational transformation**: Merge changes
+- **CRDT**: Conflict-free replicated data
+- **Manual resolution**: User chooses
+
+### Example: Offline-First Comments
+
+```typescript
+// React Native + TypeScript
+class CommentService {
+  async postComment(text: string, postId: string) {
+    const tempId = generateTempId();
+    const comment = {
+      id: tempId,
+      text,
+      postId,
+      synced: false,
+      timestamp: Date.now()
+    };
+
+    // 1. Save locally immediately
+    await db.comments.insert(comment);
+
+    // 2. Update UI (optimistic)
+    eventBus.emit('comment:added', comment);
+
+    // 3. Sync to server in background
+    try {
+      const serverComment = await api.postComment(text, postId);
+      // Replace temp ID with server ID
+      await db.comments.update(tempId, {
+        id: serverComment.id,
+        synced: true
+      });
+    } catch (error) {
+      // Mark as pending sync, retry later
+      await db.comments.update(tempId, {
+        syncError: error.message
+      });
+      syncQueue.add({ type: 'comment', id: tempId });
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Mobile Analytics & Monitoring
+
+### Analytics Platforms (2024-2025)
+
+**Firebase Analytics (Recommended)**
+- Free tier generous
+- Mobile-specific events
+- Integrated with Crashlytics
+- AI-powered insights
+- Supports all platforms
+
+**Sentry**
+- Error tracking + performance
+- Cross-platform support
+- Source map upload
+- Release tracking
+- Custom breadcrumbs
+
+**Amplitude**
+- Product analytics
+- User behavior tracking
+- Cohort analysis
+- A/B testing integration
+
+### Essential Events to Track
+
+**User Journey:**
+- App opened
+- Screen viewed
+- Feature used
+- Conversion events
+- User retention
+
+**Performance:**
+- App launch time
+- Screen load time
+- API latency
+- Crash-free rate
+- ANR rate (Android)
+
+**Business:**
+- Purchases
+- Subscriptions
+- Ad impressions
+- Feature adoption
+- Referrals
+
+### Crashlytics Integration
+
+**React Native:**
+```javascript
+import crashlytics from '@react-native-firebase/crashlytics';
+
+// Log events
+crashlytics().log('User tapped purchase button');
+
+// Set user attributes
+crashlytics().setUserId(user.id);
+
+// Log non-fatal errors
+try {
+  await riskyOperation();
+} catch (error) {
+  crashlytics().recordError(error);
+}
+```
+
+**Flutter:**
+```dart
+import 'package:firebase_crashlytics/firebase_crashlytics.dart';
+
+// Log events
+FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.log('User tapped purchase');
+
+// Set user ID
+FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.setUserIdentifier(userId);
+
+// Record errors
+await FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.recordError(
+  error,
+  stackTrace,
+  reason: 'API call failed',
+);
+```
+
+## Push Notifications Best Practices
+
+### Platforms
+- **iOS**: APNs (Apple Push Notification service)
+- **Android**: FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging)
+- **Cross-platform**: OneSignal, Firebase, AWS SNS
+
+### Best Practices
+
+**1. Permission Request Strategy**
+```
+❌ Bad: Request permission on app launch
+✅ Good: Request after user sees value
+
+Flow:
+1. User interacts with feature
+2. Show custom modal explaining benefits
+3. Request system permission
+4. Handle denial gracefully
+```
+
+**2. Personalization**
+- Segment users by behavior
+- Send at optimal times (time zones)
+- Personalize content
+- A/B test messaging
+
+**3. Frequency**
+- Avoid notification spam
+- Respect user preferences
+- Implement quiet hours
+- Group related notifications
+
+**4. Deep Linking**
+```javascript
+// React Native
+import messaging from '@react-native-firebase/messaging';
+
+messaging().onNotificationOpenedApp(remoteMessage => {
+  const { screen, params } = remoteMessage.data;
+  navigation.navigate(screen, params);
+});
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- 25% revenue increase with proper personalization
+- 88% opt-in rate with pre-permission modal (vs 40% without)
+
+## Authentication & Authorization
+
+### Modern Auth Stack (2024-2025)
+
+**Standard Pattern:**
+```
+OAuth 2.0 (Authorization)
+├─ JWT (Stateless auth tokens)
+├─ Refresh tokens (Long-term access)
+└─ Biometric (Convenient re-auth)
+```
+
+### Implementation
+
+**Biometric Authentication (iOS)**
+```swift
+import LocalAuthentication
+
+let context = LAContext()
+var error: NSError?
+
+if context.canEvaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics, error: &error) {
+    context.evaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics,
+                          localizedReason: "Unlock your account") { success, error in
+        if success {
+            // Authenticated
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Biometric Authentication (Android)**
+```kotlin
+import androidx.biometric.BiometricPrompt
+
+val promptInfo = BiometricPrompt.PromptInfo.Builder()
+    .setTitle("Biometric login")
+    .setSubtitle("Log in using your biometric credential")
+    .setNegativeButtonText("Use account password")
+    .build()
+
+val biometricPrompt = BiometricPrompt(this, executor,
+    object : BiometricPrompt.AuthenticationCallback() {
+        override fun onAuthenticationSucceeded(result: BiometricPrompt.AuthenticationResult) {
+            // Authenticated
+        }
+    })
+
+biometricPrompt.authenticate(promptInfo)
+```
+
+### Secure Token Storage
+
+**iOS: Keychain**
+```swift
+import Security
+
+func saveToken(_ token: String, for key: String) {
+    let data = token.data(using: .utf8)!
+    let query: [String: Any] = [
+        kSecClass as String: kSecClassGenericPassword,
+        kSecAttrAccount as String: key,
+        kSecValueData as String: data,
+        kSecAttrAccessible as String: kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlockedThisDeviceOnly
+    ]
+    SecItemAdd(query as CFDictionary, nil)
+}
+```
+
+**Android: EncryptedSharedPreferences**
+```kotlin
+import androidx.security.crypto.EncryptedSharedPreferences
+import androidx.security.crypto.MasterKey
+
+val masterKey = MasterKey.Builder(context)
+    .setKeyScheme(MasterKey.KeyScheme.AES256_GCM)
+    .build()
+
+val sharedPreferences = EncryptedSharedPreferences.create(
+    context,
+    "secure_prefs",
+    masterKey,
+    EncryptedSharedPreferences.PrefKeyEncryptionScheme.AES256_SIV,
+    EncryptedSharedPreferences.PrefValueEncryptionScheme.AES256_GCM
+)
+
+sharedPreferences.edit().putString("auth_token", token).apply()
+```
+
+**React Native: react-native-keychain**
+```javascript
+import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';
+
+// Save credentials
+await Keychain.setGenericPassword('username', token, {
+  accessControl: Keychain.ACCESS_CONTROL.BIOMETRY_CURRENT_SET,
+  accessible: Keychain.ACCESSIBLE.WHEN_UNLOCKED_THIS_DEVICE_ONLY,
+});
+
+// Retrieve credentials
+const credentials = await Keychain.getGenericPassword();
+const token = credentials.password;
+```
