Hey developers,
I’m planning to develop a mobile app and trying to estimate the overall cost. What factors impact the budget the most—design, backend infrastructure, third-party integrations? How do top app development companies like Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, or Thought Works structure their pricing models?
Would love to hear real-world cost breakdowns!
“How do I estimate the cost of developing a mobile app?”
Here’s what this request sounds like:
“So, I’m planning to develop a mobile app (don’t ask me what kind, because I don’t know yet), and I’m trying to figure out the overall cost. What do you think impacts the budget the most; design, backend infrastructure, third-party integrations? Also, how do big companies like Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, or Thought Works structure their pricing models?
Would love to hear some real-world cost breakdowns! Thanks!”
It’s like saying, “I want to build a car. How much will it cost?” well, what kind of car? What model? What features? Will it be electric, gas, or hybrid? You can’t just throw out a vague request and expect an exact figure, right?
So, if you really want a better idea of app development costs you have to be more more specific with details?
To estimate mobile app development cost, consider app complexity, target platforms (iOS, Android, or both), design requirements, backend needs, developer rates, and maintenance. Multiply estimated development hours by hourly rates to get a rough budget.
