How To Reduce Your Spending When Developing an App
21 August 2019 | 0 comments | Posted by Manoj Rupareliya in Industry Experts
Nowadays, businesses have recognized the importance of mobile apps. As a result, millions of applications are flooding our app store. According to a Statista report of august 2019, there were 2.46 million apps on the Google App Store, whereas 1.96 million apps were available on the Apple App Store. Due to the high availability of apps in the app market, businesses are facing fierce competition as there are numerous apps that serve the same purpose.
Most businesses face various difficulties when it comes to developing a successful app that survives in the app market. To be discovered in this sea of competition, they need to understand the importance of developing a successful app without spending more penny on the development process.
Increasing craze of Smartphones and apps
In Macau, there were around 743,000 mobile phone users in 2017. They spend almost more than one hour on their smartphones browsing one or the other app. Apart from these, mobile internet users in Mexico has also increased in the last few years. In 2017 almost 55.9 million internet users were registered who access the internet through their smartphones; it was also predicted that this number is going to reach 81.7 million in 2023.
Most of the users these days like to use their smartphones and various apps to complete their daily chores. As numerous users use one or another app for completing their multiple demands; hence, it becomes mandatory for businesses to own an app for their business. Different effective ways are using which you can quickly develop an excellent app that also within the pocket-friendly price.
1. App Idea & Market Research
First of all, get an app idea and decide whether you want to build a Native, Android, or iOS app. Once you decide everything about your app, sketch your design on paper.
After completing this process, carry out market research to know your target audience and your competitors. List out all weaknesses and strengths of your competitors to develop the best app for them.
Get an answer for some of the questions such as:
- Which strategy is followed by your competitor?
- What is lacking in your competitor's app?
- Why should users use your app instead of your competitor's app?
- Which allow features you can include for enhancing users experience?
- How your app will satisfy the needs of your targeted audience?
- Which user problems can be solved through your app?
- How your app will simplify your users' lives?
2. Purpose of Creating the App
Get a clear idea about what you want to achieve with your app; you must develop the app with a specific purpose and must also look that it meets all the requirements of your ideal customers. You must not waste money on crafting an app that fails to satisfy your customers need. Instead of losing your money, have a clear vision about what you want to achieve with your app.
If your app does not have a specific purpose, then it will inevitably fail to achieve success on the App store. App developed for a particular use requires less resource; this can affect the cost of your app development.
3. Outsource Your Project Development
Once you decide the purpose of your app, you need to move ahead to the development phase. Now it's time to determine if you want to outsource your project development to an app development company that allows you to rent a coder as per your project requirement or want to hire freelance app developers. Compare the cost charged by them and take various things into consideration before allocating the work to anyone of them.
Take the following points into account before appointing the developers for your app development.
- Cost of app development.
- Quality of App.
- Security of app details.
- Adequate resources for developing an app.
- The time required for the development process.
4. Keep Your App Simple
Try to keep your app as simple as possible because no one likes to use such apps which they cannot operate efficiently. The design of your app also influences the development process. If you have a sophisticated app design, then, indeed, you have to pay high for developing the app.
Hence you can ask the developer to deliver such an app that has a simple flow for users. Your app must have a convenient user interface and simple navigation, which should be designed according to the design guidelines.
To make your app Consider the following questions:
- Whether the flow of your app is simple?
- Can your users operate the app without any guidance?
The app which you develop should be easy to navigate and user-friendly. If your users face difficulty in operating your app, then, indeed, they will leave your app and move to your competitor's app. If your app is simple and has all the features which your potential users want to use, then they will have no reason to go to your competitor's app.
5. Integrating Complex Features
Including complex features in the app can increase the cost of development. If you have a limited budget for app development, then you must include only those features which are very important for your app success.
List out those features that fit within your budget. You can use the rest of the features later when you earn some money from the app and try to release your app in the market as early as possible.
Summing up
Developing the app within the budget is not as easy a task as we think, but you follow the proper way, then you can get it complete within the pocket-friendly price. There are various options available these days; you must choose the best option from the available one to take your business to the next level of success.
Before finalizing any discussion, you need to understand which options are reasonable for you.
