FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
This is extremely variable depending on your requirements; typically the lowest cost apps are around $10,000 and they go upwards from there. Big factors include the amount of functionality in the app, what integrations to other systems it does or doesn’t need and whether or not we need to build a custom ‘back end’ data service for it.
The answer is almost always yes, it’s just a case of how easy or hard the integration is.
Because apps are downloaded from the app stores there is no direct hosting cost for the apps themselves. However, for apps requiring a custom back-end data service that data service does need to be hosted somewhere in the cloud and, if you don’t have an existing service that’s suitable, you may need to subscribe to a service specifically for it.
Typically these days people only build apps for the iOS and Android platforms as other platforms have pretty much died out. So, where this is the case, your apps will only work on devices running those platforms. Some apps are also only designed to be released on tablet or smartphone specifically, however they are the same technically (apart from screen size), so even where this is the case it’s usually easy to adapt for release for both tablets and smartphones.
