App Development Cost by App Category<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nApps have multiple categories like education, social media, entertainment & lifestyle incl. different target audiences & development requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>a. Basic Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe most common basic applications are calculators, clocks, notes & camera applications. These apps do not require an internet connection & are usually built into every smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>b. E-commerce Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe e-commerce applications need multiple features such as user registration, customer support, product descriptions & user-friendly design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>c. Data-driven Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nMany data-driven apps personalize the data for users to improve their services. Applications such as health tracking, maps & weather solutions receive a large amount of data, process & evaluate it & share it with users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>d. Social-networking Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nSocial networking apps involve millions of users, their personal information & information exchange. Such operation requires a reliable backend infrastructure like the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>II. App Building Cost by Types of Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe technology tree you choose as the base for your app development project will ultimately determine who you hire to build the app. This selection will have a major impact on the overall cost of your app.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<\/span>a. Web App<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nNot technically a mobile app, but rather a mobile-friendly website that uses responsive design to ensure a smooth user experience across a variety of screen sizes from tablets to smartphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>b. Native App<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nA native app is built with a language native to the operating system of a given platform i.e., using Swift or Objective-C for iOS & JAVA or Kotlin for Android.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>c. Hybrid App<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe healthy compromise between performance & programmer productivity is the hybrid app which speeds up development times by allowing you to build your mobile app with the big three basic web technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>d. Cross-platform app<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIt allows you to build your app in one language, creating a single source of code that can be compiled into native code across multiple platforms as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>e. Progressive Web Apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\nProgressive web apps are developed using web technologies but made to look & function like native mobile applications. These apps have a quick loading time, better performance, mobile app-like features, offline availability & lower development costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>III. Cost Breakdown based on App Features<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe cost to build an app increases with every new feature you add to your app. The type of features has a similar impact on the cost as the numbers. You can use many different basic & advanced versions of the same feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each app has its own set of essential features & based on the type of features you include in your app, app cost estimation becomes easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
