Factors to consider

how much does an app cost

For several years now, business app development has become increasingly widespread. We live surrounded by smart devices, and it is clear that adopting new technologies and going digital is essential to stay competitive.

For this reason, many people wonder how much it costs to create a business app.

In a previous article, we explained why it is not easy to answer the question “how much does a website cost”; similarly, to determine the cost of an app, some assumptions are necessary.

First of all, as with business website development, it is important to understand the company’s needs and type. The more features and customisations are added, the higher the development cost of the application will be.

Secondly, to develop an app for your business, you need to decide which devices and operating systems it will support. Developing an app for Android or iOS is not the same, and the cost will vary if you want the app to work across multiple platforms.

The features and implementations for apps are virtually endless. For example, you might need a multilingual app with geolocation, push notifications, or an admin panel.

For these reasons, it is difficult to provide even an indicative price. The range is very wide and can vary from €5,000 to over €50,000, depending on the requirements.

Building an app does not only involve a developer. It is advisable to rely on a team of professionals with multidisciplinary expertise to create a high-quality product that must be approved by Apple and Google.
