The features and functionalities that you are going to shape your app will also affect the cost structure of the app. As you can perhaps think, the more features and functionalities you want to build, the more costs you must pay.

• Complex messaging app: ~ 360 hours

UI/UX Design

The app will be developed for common users. No matter how good the backend of the app is if the User Experience and the User Interface is not enough good intention, your app will be not attractive to their eyes.

So, make sure that it is an impressive design. If your app is intuitive and lively design, it will attract your customer. It can be anything that can be interesting for your customers such as animation, icon, color combination, and many more things. UI and UX design play the role are the keys for Mobile Application Development success or failure.

The animation, icon, color combination, etc... are in factors that can attract users on the Mobile App.

Here, the cost can differ if the UI/UX is simple, and for the complex projects, there will be different. The more complex the UI / UX application will be, the longer it will take and lead to greater costs. The estimated time of UI / UX design depends on the number of screens, complex features, or custom animations. In a small application, it takes 3-4 weeks. While the medium or large application for up to 12 weeks.

Maintenance and development

The Mobile App development Cost does not end with the launch of the app, the real story begins with the cost of maintenance, which is 15-20% of the original development cost. So, you have to discuss with your developers about the approximate budget for the backend support and maintenance.

Once your application has been developed and launched, you have to create a budget for timely application maintenance and update to address malware attacks, fix bugs, and more. Regular application updates are required because they remind users that the app have periodically changes that are beneficial to the user. Besides, application updates bring new features that require additional budget. So don't spend all your budget at an early stage, instead, collect customer feedback and deploy them in your app to make it more perfect.

Last but not least, the cost of mobile application development depends very much on your development team. Building an in-house development team will cost a lot of money for infrastructure investment along with initial team training. However, when you choose to outsource, you can cut costs for this part.

Your tech partner’s location also affects Mobile App Development costs. So you need to be carefully considered. Outsourcing in emerging Asian countries like Vietnam will save your budget more, while the quality is still the same.

Compared to India, software development outsourcing in Vietnam is cheaper from one third to one-seventh.
