Proactive Mobile Application Maintenance & SLA Support
Publishing an application to the App Store and Google Play is only the first step. Operating system updates, third-party API deprecations, security vulnerabilities, and evolving device screen dimensions require continuous engineering oversight. Mantra Tech Fusion provides structured mobile app maintenance and SLA-backed support to keep your software stable, secure, and compatible.
Core Technical structure & Capabilities
Our maintenance service goes beyond reactive bug fixing to deliver systemic application stability:
- Continuous OS Compatibility: Proactive testing against developer previews of upcoming iOS and Android releases to prevent launch-day breakage.
- Crash Telemetry & Triage: 24/7 crash monitoring via Sentry and Firebase Crashlytics with symbolicated stack trace analysis and rapid triage.
- Dependency & SDK Updates: Regular upgrading of third-party libraries, analytics SDKs, payment gateways, and Gradle/CocoaPods dependencies.
- API Health & Sync Monitoring: End-to-end monitoring of API response latencies, authentication tokens, and webhook reliability.
- Store Policy Compliance: Maintaining compliance with evolving Google Play Target SDK mandates and Apple Privacy Manifest regulations.
Technical Deliverables Checklist
- Monthly technical health report covering crash-free user rates, latency metrics, and resolved tickets.
- Scheduled quarterly OS compatibility build releases.
