Proven App Developers in Brisbane for Development Services and Consultations

During 2022 the average cost to build an app for an Australian app developer ranged from $30,000 to $300,000. That’s an extensive range; however, that’s due to the fact that various factors impact the cost of app development.

We can break the numbers down even further by looking at the complexity of the app. Check out the cost ranges you can expect:

Basic proof of concept app: $10,000 to $30,000

Small app: $30,000 to $80,000

Medium app: $80,000 to $150,000

Large feature-rich apps: $150,000 or more

Factors that influence cost include the following:

Features – The functions the app will be able to perform for users

Type of app – Healthcare, educational, food delivery, etc.

Platforms supported – Will your app be supported by iOS only or iOS and Android platforms?

The level of polish – The amount of UX and UI your app needs will influence the cost

Location of the development team – Where is your development team based?

The cost of an app isn’t tied exclusively to the build. You also need to consider some of the ongoing fees. There are large corporations that will spend millions of dollars a year on app development and maintenance.

Ongoing costs you can expect include:

Server fees – Can range from $10 to $10,000 dollars a month

Developer accounts – You’ll need a developer account to release your app; while Android charges a one-time fee, iOS charges an annual fee.

Ongoing maintenance – Ongoing maintenance can cost upwards of $2,000 per year.

Third-party tools – Third-party tools and their costs will vary

Marketing – You can spend as little as you want on marketing or millions; just make sure you’re doing it.

We focus on helping you build intuitive, innovative, and stunningly successful mobile apps, and that process will take time. The time it takes to develop an app will vary depending on how intricate the app is.

It typically takes two to four months to develop a straightforward app. Generally, this type of app comprises five screens and does not require data collecting. An example might be a digital business card featuring company information.

Four to six months is the usual time frame for developing an app of medium or small size, which may comprise up to ten screens for users to create accounts, such as a virtual library or shop.

Developing a complex app such as a social media platform can require significantly more time than the average – up to nine months. These applications will typically come with animation, integration with databases, and other features.

We take intellectual property theft very seriously and we start every project by signing a mutual Non-disclosure agreement.

No. We are service providers and we are fully committed to making your project successful. Most clients sharing equity with agencies have told us horror stories and the problems of being locked down with poor-quality mobile app development providers.

With equal market share divided between both technologies, we recommended catering for both technologies to cover the maximum number of users possible. However, due to reasons such as budget constraints, user research or others, we can choose to start with one technology and adopt another in future.

First, we need to understand the purpose of your custom software development and how it will generate value for users. Only then can we start thinking about how to monetise it. There are many ways to make money from mobile and web development, but they all essentially come down to one thing: generating value for users.

We will work with you to devise a monetisation strategy. But to give you a preview: we can use techniques such as in-app purchases, monthly subscriptions, and an advertising platform to make money with the mobile app development.
