The cost of app development and production is directly related to the development method, usually divided into the following four cases:

1, app development company outsourcing:

The development of an app software needs to be invested in the technical staff, including product managers, UI designers, Android developers, iOS developers, backend developers, test engineers, etc., the development cycle is generally three The development cycle is usually about three months. Usually the most expensive customized development cost is to find an app development company.

app development costs: many app development company's starting price is 200,000 yuan.

2, small studio order:

Now there are also many large and small app development studios on the market, mainly by a few programmers to take orders, the price is cheaper, but most of them use ready-made templates for simple modifications. These templates have fewer features, slower response time, poorer performance, high maintenance costs for subsequent updates, and many are dead templates with functional content that cannot be modified.

App development fee: with a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars ranging.

3, self-built team development app

The formation of their own professional app development team, project development is generally the practice of technology companies, either there is a ready-made development team, or the team leader himself is a technical bull, can be found in a short period of time to find suitable manpower. The advantage of self-built team development is that internal communication is efficient, safe and reliable.

App production costs: involving labor costs, office costs and other costs 300,000 to start.

4, programming-free app production

Using the application park programming-free app, production platform, ordinary people do not need to know the professional development technology, they can also produce a native app software. The application park platform provides everyone with a huge number of app function modules, you can jigsaw puzzle substance, do app, while there are hundreds of sets of app templates can be used in one click.

app development cost: about 1~20 thousand.

Extended information:

Development process:

1, to make an APP, there must be a relevant IDEA, that is to say, the first step is the formation of the idea of APP.

2, is through those ideas to the main function of the APP design and rough interface conceptualization and design.

The next step is to write the code for the big function module and the rough interface module. Before the interface module is written, the developer can do the big function development in the simulator. But in fact, for iNotes development, simulator is not enough, simulator's multi-touch (multi-touch) support is very weak, a lot of touch testing can not be done in simulator.

Particularly noteworthy is that in the process of feature development should pay attention to the use of memory, which is also in the iOS development of the most important thinking

3, and then the approximate interface and functionality of the connection, the app's approximate demo came out. It is worth mentioning that if there is an interface designer, you can save a lot of time. For example, on the interface design, you can write functional modules and designers synchronized. This way the demo of the app comes out, you can basically have the interface can be used.

4, after the demo out of their own trial and experience a few times, and then modify according to the situation. This practice can improve the quality of the product, but also to test the user to get a free software product. According to the feedback of the test users, repeat the series of steps after the demo.

Finally, after the app is completed, add the app icon, iTunesArtwork, and other UI elements. After repeated testing and uploading the app to iTunes, it takes about 7-14 days for the app to be approved.
