How Much Does ItCost To Build An App

Introduction

• To estimate the cost to build an app, you have to
  consider different factors. The price actually
  depends on various factors which are required to
  be successfully implementing an idea and also
  includes talent, type of app as well as the
  complexity of the project.
• Lets look at the key factors.

1. App Development Team

• According to the requirement of the project, a
  development team can consist of a project
  manager, at least two developers, UI and UX
  designer, as well as a quality assurance
  engineer. In case the app requires a particular
  backend infrastructure to develop an API, then a
  backend developer is also required.

2. Technical Complexity of the App

• There can be a wide range of features which can
  add to the technical complexity of any project.
  Few of them are
• a. Third-party Integrations
• Few functionalities of the app require
  integration of different third-party frameworks,
  libraries, and services. For instance, to
  implement a payment feature in restaurant app
  development, you can integrate services like
  Stripe. It may also include implementation of
  real-time chats with the assistance of different
  APIs. Adding social media sharing functionality
  into a particular app can be easily done through
  APIs of Facebook, Twitter etc.

Technical Complexity of the App

• b. Backend Development
• A backend is essentially an operating system
  which provides APIs in order to enable the data
  exchange between a database and mobile app. It
  implements the business logic of the app.
• c. Admin Panel Development
• An admin panel is quite a useful tool which
  makes it quite easier to manage users, content
  etc. and also operate apps. Finding a good and
  flexible admin template can be quite tedious for
  any mobile application development company.

Technical Complexity of the App

• d. In-app purchases
• For additional functionalities to virtual goods,
  they are different types of in-app purchases
  which can be implemented. There is a great range
  of tasks which can go into the entire
  implementation of the in-app purchases, and hence
  it can add complexity to the project,
  technically.
• e. Hardware Components Usage
• Modern smartphones generally come with various
  hardware components like GPS, accelerometer, NFC,
  barometers, Bluetooth etc. But the hardware set
  can certainly vary from one device type to
  another and also from one manufacturer to
  another. Finding the right approach for every
  device and testing how various hardware
  components can essentially communicate with the
  app can certainly increase development time and
  costs.

3. Number of Operating System Devices

• When it comes to any iOS app, it needs to be
  compatible with the recent and previous versions
  of iPhone and also support the latest as well as
  previous iOS versions.
• But in the case of Android apps, the word looks
  quite diverse. When you have to decide which
  devices to support, then there are three major
  factors which can essentially influence your
  decision. The size of the market share of a
  particular Android device manufacturer, the
  devices which are specific to a particular market
  and the preferences of customers.
• Also, more devices mean that mobile app
  development services have to spend a lot of time
  in adapting their app for different screen sizes,
  hardware specifications, resolutions as well as
  testing.

Cost of Development of an App

• On an average, you can hire app developers for
  nearly 10 to 100 per hour. The total cost of
  the app will depend on the total numbers of hours
  required to develop the app and the cost of
  hiring these app developers. In most cases, a
  typical simple app can cost from 10,000 to
  25,000. In the case of iOS apps, the rate can be
  higher. For more complex apps, the price can
  range anywhere from 50,000 to 100,000.
