To put it simply, according to the demand and quality of mobile apps, the price is generally around several thousand to several hundred thousand, and the high-end price is higher.
Today we will analyze this problem in detail. Please read on.
1.APP development styles are divided into fixed mode and customized mode, and the prices of the two modes are different.
Fixed payment: refers to the direct application of the existing and ready-made APP fixed template, with fixed quotation and required functions. The disadvantage is that customers can't get the source code and can't customize it according to the needs of enterprises. Because the source code is encapsulated, enterprises can't upgrade their functions or maintain their systems in the future, so they can only re-develop a new software.
The development time of fixed APP is short, which can be completed in about 2~3 days, and the cost is between thousands and tens of thousands.
Customization: Customization refers to redeveloping all the functions of APP, which is complicated and requires the cooperation of artists, planners, APP development (foreground/client/mobile phone) and background programmers. A large and complex APP even needs a team of dozens of people.
Because the function and design of the APP are customized, the price will be higher. The development time of customized models is directly proportional to the development price, and the development time is long, which can only be completed in two or three months or even irregularly, and the cost is about tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
Therefore, if you want to know how much it costs to develop a mobile APP, the business owner must first inform the APP development company of the detailed requirements and functions of the APP, so that the development company can quote a reasonable price.
Second, different mobile APP platforms have different production costs.
At present, there are two popular mobile APP production platforms, including Android and IOS.
Generally speaking, the cost of making mobile APP software for Apple system is more expensive than that for Android platform, because Apple's proximity to Apple platform and the difficulty of mobile APP development language Objective-C make it more difficult for APP developers to develop mobile apps for Apple system.
Third, the production cost of the APP includes the salary of the participants.
Usually, developing an APP requires a product manager, a client engineer, a back-end engineer and a UI designer, which is a relatively streamlined configuration for making mobile APP applications, so the salaries of these participants are also included in the app production cost. The monthly salary of these staff members may add up to more than 40,000 to 50,000 yuan.
Fourth, the location of APP development company.
It should be noted that APP development companies with the same strength will also lead to higher APP costs in different cities. For example, the development costs of development companies in Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai will be higher, because the wages and other expenses of local developers are relatively higher.
