With the development of mobile Internet, APP software has become an indispensable part of our life. And every APP software application has its spiritual purpose.
So what is the price of custom app software development when making a brand new app?
Let’s take a look at the price of APP development together:
1. APP development methods are divided into template and custom development. There are essential differences between the two, and the prices are very different.
Template: Refers to the existing ready-made mobile APP fixed template. The quotes are fixed, as are the required features. The disadvantage is that customers cannot obtain the source code, nor can it be customized according to the needs of the enterprise, and the cost is between several thousand to tens of thousands.
Customization: Customization means that the functions of the APP are completely redeveloped, and the process is complicated, requiring product managers, interface designers, APP (foreground/client/mobile terminal) and background programmers to work together. A large and complex mobile APP program even requires a team of dozens of people. Since the functions and design of the APP are customized, the price will be higher. The development price of a custom app is directly proportional to the development time. The longer the development time, the higher the development price. Custom development usually takes two to four months to complete, and the cost is about hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
2. The operating system of mobile APP is different, and the production cost is also different
Currently, there are two popular operating systems for mobile APPs on the market: Android and Apple. Generally speaking, for APP software with the same function, the cost of making mobile APP software for the Apple system is higher than that for the Android system.
3. The production cost of mobile APP is affected by wage level
Usually, developing an APP requires a product manager, an Android/ios engineer, a back-end engineer, and a user interface designer to develop a mobile APP program. This is already a relatively tight mobile app production staffing, so the salaries of these participants affect the development price of mobile apps.
4. The geographical location of the mobile APP development company
It should be noted that mobile APP development companies with the same strength will incur higher costs in different cities. For example, development companies in Beijing, Shenzhen, and Shanghai will bear higher costs because wages and other expenses for local developers are relatively high.
In fact, there is no statistical price on the market for the development cost of APP. Assuming that the development cost is the same, different companies will give different quotations, because some companies want to earn more, then the price will be higher, but The development costs of different companies will basically not be the same, which will lead to differences in prices.
