How much will an app cost in 2020

 

 

 

 

One of the most common questions we get from our customers who have an app development project in mind is, "How much does it cost to create an app?"

 

The answer is simple: it varies

 

It's like the car market: not all are the same price and it depends on the quality, size, functionality, accessories, etc. The same principle applies to the world of apps. But only a few know what is behind an app development project and many underestimate the effort involved.

 

 

 

Costs according to the main characteristics of mobile apps

Apps differ in their functions and therefore also in their price. Developing apps is a complicated process, and the cost of creating an app is largely determined by the amount of functionality, and therefore its price. Common functions are:

 

User login

Push notifications

navigation

Portrait / landscape view

Media content

Geolocation

Integration of Google Maps

Chat / messaging

Advertising in the app

In-app purchases

Integration of payments

Streaming

Multi-language support

Offline mode

Database

Use of cell phone sensors

Adaptation

search

Cost of maintaining the app

 

 

App builder vs. freelancer vs. app agency

Each of these approaches has its own advantages and disadvantages.

 

An app builder is faster, but the degree of customization and innovation is limited, so you may end up with a generic, template-looking mobile application that may or may not provide users with a memorable user experience.

 

Working with freelancers is comparatively cheaper, but it comes with its own risks and aspects of unreliability. The costs of scaling, maintaining, and updating the application also add up over the long term.

 

App development companies and agencies like PriorApps are probably the best choices for creating a great app that offers a good user experience. Not only are the applications developed at a higher quality, but there is also a greater degree of responsibility when you outsource the development of your app.
