How do you estimate the cost of a mobile app?
We can provide you a fixed fee estimate with our Solution Design phase. The Solution Design phase allows us to work with you on your app idea to make it a working solution. When this initial phase is complete we provide multiple deliverables along with a project plan with a fixed fee project cost. The cost of a mobile app depends on the features of the app, programming language and the amount of target devices. It’s common for a mobile app to start at $15,000 for hybrid apps and $30,000 for a native app. It’s not uncommon for our clients to need multiple services from SolutionBuilt including apps, website, portals, web admin, database and web services that can put the cost range from $20,000 to 250,000+.
How long does it take to develop a mobile app?
That all depends on the number of screens and features that need to be developed. Within our Solution Design phase we put together a project plan. Depending when you approve the plan it can be as little as 30 days – 90 days. Larger apps can take 6 months to 12 months+. Most all apps will also get ongoing updates and maintenance to perfect the app overtime based on feedback and user needs.
Do I have to create a separate app for Android, iPhone, and iPad?
Yes and No. Depending on your programming language native or hybrid, you can have unique code bases for each application or a unified code base that will allow us to “Port” your hybrid application for your target devices. Because Apple apps are not compatible with Android and vice-versa, they use different operating systems, programming languages and have different screen sizes which require additional programming for the apps to render properly on your target devices. We can help you decide what the best option for your mobile app would be.
What type of apps does SolutionBuilt specialize in?
We build iOS and Android apps for the enterprise, medical and media companies. We are always up for a challenge so please reach out to discuss your app needs.

What is Website Maintenance?
Website maintenance is the process of keeping a website up-to-date and running smoothly as well as performing optimally.

It also involves more general housekeeping tasks like backing up your site regularly and monitoring your site's performance.

An ideal mobile app maintenance plan (and budget) will include:
- Security updates, bug fixes and audits

- Testing for new mobile devices
- Updates to any cloud based services: servers, databases and web services
- New features and enhancements
- Performance monitoring
