First things first is deciding which type of app you want to create!

Looking to make your presets and editing tactics more accessible and easily monetised? Then an app is just right for you!
The average cost for a photo or video editing app can range anywhere from £XX,000 - £XX,000 yet with the easily monetised filters and effects, profits can range far beyond those costs at £XX,000 - £XX,000!

Looking to make an app like Among Us or Candy Crush?
The average cost for such a project would be around the £XX,000 - £XX,000 mark. However with monetisation options, such as in-app purchases and advertising, revenues can be astronomical, averaging £XX,000 - £XX,000 - now that’s life changing.

•Release: In comparison to iOS, Android apps are easier to publish to Google Play. The whole process may take just a few hours.
•Open system. Android developers receive access to more features, restricted in iOS apps.
•Revenue: Apple users statistically spend more on in app purchases.
•UI Design: Apple provides developer support for app design, making this process slightly cheaper.
With such a large number of users with both Android and iOS supported devices, we almost always suggest going with both! Maximising your scope and potential for success.
Not sure which platform to choose? Ask our team! Compiling a comprehensive list of features is often the next step in the calculation of an app's cost. Understandably, the more features you want to implement within your mobile app, the more time the development team needs to create them.
If you’ve been researching how much apps cost for a while now, you might be a little confused by the wide array of quotes that you’re given. Why do some app companies charge so much more, or less, than others?
Reasons typically include: the location of the developer and the quality of the code.
Think of your app like a shop front. You want your customers to have the best possible experience, from the time they walk into your shop, so make sure you find a good developer!
