How Much Does It Cost To Make An App?

Estimate the cost of an app easily using this handy tool.

This budget range is a rough estimate based on the amount of time it will take to complete your project and a recommended budget of $60-100 USD per hour (market rate for quality talent is typically in this range).

Considering the base rates stated in the tool, we can derive the following effort estimates which, in my opinion, are much more interesting to analyse (from a development point of view):

     =
     
      50-83h
     
     — Basic stand-alone app with stock UI
+ 30-50h — Add custom UI matching existing brand
+ 40-67h — Add original design for that custom UI
+ 20-33h — Login system via email only
+ 10-17h — Add login via social media also
+ 30-50h — In-app payments
+ 80-133h — Sync data across devices
+ 50-83h — User ratings & reviews
+ 30-50h — User profiles
+ 30-50h — Website integration
+ ~8h — Creating a custom app icon
