Transforming App Development with Open Source

Open Mobile Hub simplifies Native and Cross-platform App Development & Enables Services Choice

“Open Mobile Hub streamlines mobile app development for developers by abstracting away the challenges of platform fragmentation across Android (GMS and non-GMS), iOS, and more. OMH empowers application developers to use a common set of APIs that enable on the fly service switching (to support the device’s available services such as Maps, Auth, Storage, In App Payments, etc) within the application allowing app deployment across multiple device ecosystems (via native and cross-platform APIs). The goal of this open source collaborative project is to push upstream the APIs into the cross platform frameworks such as React Native and Kotlin Multiplatform. This approach drives faster development cycles, lowers engineering costs, increases budget for innovation, enhances interoperability, and expands user choice across platforms in a dynamic mobile landscape.”

Who Should Care About Fragmentation in the Mobile Ecosystem

Mobile App developers

App developers who want to support multiple device platforms via on the fly service switching to enable support beyond default services like Google Maps, Apple IAP; and those interested in developing for devices beyond GMS Android and iOS.

Service Providers

Service providers for modules like maps, auth, IAP, ads, cloud storage, and others; in addition to those seeking more mobile app adoption for their services.

Device Manufacturers/Platforms

Platforms outside the mainstream that aim to enable mobile app developers to be compatible with their platforms.

Examples of Current Challenges

App Developer Facing Errors

App developers getting error messages because your app uses OS integrated services.

Service providers’ Distribution Challenges

Flutter IAP supports only Apple Pay and Google Pay

Device manufacturers Facing Issues

Error on Meta Quest with mobile apps

Open Mobile Hub Simplifies App Development & Enables Services Choice

Open Mobile Hub addresses the gaps in native app development providing SDKs for native development, and complementing the cross-platform frameworks.

Native and Cross-Platform Frameworks With OMH

OMH Overview

Available Now

OMH Future Roadmap Features

To be Finalized by TSC

In future releases, OMH plans to contribute the Android modules towards popular cross platform frameworks such as Flutter, React Native, and KMP, as well as new modules asked for by the community.

This will make it even easier for developers to use its features.
