several TBH'ers know a lot about this and will chime in


you better have deeeeeeep pockets as you can spend from $5K ~ $250K + depending on the complexity and developer used

going rate seems to be around $150/hr as it may take 2-3 developers several hundred hours total.


google search your query as here is 1 link to check out ---

Wow, was thinking in the 5k range but never expected the 250k range

If you engage, just make sure in your RFP, you have a scope, requirements, functional/technical design & test plan documented & that you retain all intellectual property rights.

$150/hr is in the ball park, but I can't see an mobile app being more than 80-120 hrs to design/develop/commercialize unless it's somewhat complex (e.g. integrating w/ other applications, databases, software, etc.)

You're welcome to pm me some details for a ballpark figure on it. If its something you can do as a mobile webapp its definitely cheaper, there are a few other ways to trim costs also, really depends on exactly what the app does.
