I feel that the hourly quote of the development is not that important, especially since a good developer can make in one hour the same progress as a less experienced one would do in 10.

At Appnific we charge 40$ per hour, which we believe failry reflects the value we provide.

Developing applications in countries like Poland can lower total price of App – we have lots of talented and experienced engineers, graphical and UX designers working for a bit lower amount of money – we do games for us and apps for our Clients and as far as I now we provide high quality for less money.
But still … the times when you can develop app for $5.000 are fare behind us – now we require more quality and experience from devs, and (unfortunatelly) we have to pay for this

I cant agree more. That Obama mobile app development, might seem expensive but think of the outreach to the “ipad generation” a huge niche in his campaign.

We do apps like this all the time, the more complex, the more cost – of course – but also the more chance of going viral.

Right on, Ray!

And not to mention, other ‘copy cat apps’ will probably start showing up after working with an outsourced overseas developer. So keep that in mind also yall!

Comparing costs leads to nothing if you are now taking into consideration what is included.

Are the hourly rates really only for coding. What about the professional graphic design and not to forget the testing and QA. For the lowest price to normally hire a developer and all the rest is for the customer to come up with.

If you want to hire the complete package the prices are higher. Quality is not free and nobodies time is. Also if you go with a company that stays around, you can later go back to get updates (new versions of iOS or changes to the app). If you you work with some student who does it in is free time, you’ll get a low price, but may be not the best design, not the best coding and may be not the best maintenance after the initial development.

We are also one of the outsourcing companies providing development services for mobile devices (iPhone, iPad (iO), Android and Windows Mobile). We provide professional graphic design and QA for our customers. We have our developers based in Vietnam but are a European (Swiss) company to bring both together, the lower cost, while maintaining the idea of quality.

Hi how much does it cost for the license to develop an app for iOS and for Android?

Does Apple take a share of the sales that comes from selling an app through the app-stores?

I just outsourced my first iOS app after developing them myself for years. The cost was surprisingly low–around $1,000. I don’t know if this was partly because I was able to provide clear direction on the development, not on how it should be done, but I did not change my mind on requirements during the process. I think the developer, which I found on oDesk, did a great job managing the project, and gave me prototypes of the user interface to choose between–which is certainly better than I expected for that cost! The free version is here is you want to see–I think this was definitely worth the cost: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-magic-camera-free/id481940663?ls=1&mt=8
