APP DEVELOPER IN AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND

WORLD-CLASS APP DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND MARKETING BASED RIGHT HERE

 

professionalism, experience and the latest tools

We may be based in New Zealand and Australia, and so might you be, but your users are not limited to apps developed here. They are using Instagram, Google, FlightScanner, UberEats and a plethora of great, user-friendly, stable, bug-free apps. Your users have come to expect excellence when it comes to the apps they use thanks to these international heavyweights. So whether you are developing for the local market or an international one, the bar of quality is set high; fail it and you will see consequences in the form of bad app store reviews. This could be very difficult to recover from.

This is why we have been honing our skills every working day for the past 10 years, learning the best techniques and keeping up with the latest productivity tools, design trends and inventing some of our own.

what does it cost to make an app?

A typical app budget might be around $50K, but it depends. A simple app might cost just $5K to design and develop, while a complex enterprise-grade system might be a couple of orders of magnitude higher. It all depends on the complexity of the design and app functionality that you need developed.

The process of building an app is kind of like building a house. A developer might have some idea of ballpark pricing when you tell them “3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms”, but they’ll need to know the lay of the land and see some blueprints before quoting. Similarly, an experienced app developer can give you a rough ballpark estimate up-front, and an accurate quote after doing some scoping.

If you’re wondering what your app might cost to develop, feel free to get in touch with us now. A 5-minute phone call is all it takes to get a rough ballpark estimate.

What goes into the price of an app?

Apps are made by a team of highly skilled designers, developers and support personnel. A small, flexible, highly up-to-date team like ours would use the latest proven tools and techniques to get the highest quality results.

We would start off with understanding in detail exactly what you are after. Quite often this involves helping our clients clarify how they might achieve their goals, and just what exactly is possible with the technology at the moment, plus walking them through what it means to build a Minimum Viable Product (MVP).

We then go through our app design process, during which we aim to create a great, world-class user experience (UX) for your app. In the early days of the app economy, there often wasn’t enough attention to the UX design. Thankfully now, most people realise just how important this is.

At this stage we also start engineering the app using our agile development process. We test everything as we go, until we have a working solution. Once the engineering and design are in place we test everything from scratch again, until we are satisfied the app is working correctly. Then we give the app to our client for a test drive until they are satisfied. Once the client is satisfied, it is time to write up marketing descriptions for Google Play and the App Store and release.

WHAT DOES IT COST TO MAINTAIN AN APP AFTER LAUNCH?

Typically apps nowadays are always on and connected to the internet in order to enable saving user data, connecting users to services and to each other. In order to enable this, we would use a secure and proven hosted server for a small monthly fee. The server can start off really small and scale as your app usage grows. It’ll typically cost under $10 / month per thousand users.


WHAT ABOUT FUTURE CHANGES AND ENHANCEMENTS TO MY APP?

We will always aim to make your users happy, and when they are happy, we will continue working to make sure we keep the lights on and keep them happy. Enhancements, bug fixes or whatever it takes is all part of the package. We would typically work closely with you on a product roadmap and as you execute your plans and get feedback from users we’ll happily prioritise the work that’s most important to you.
