How much does it cost to develop an APP? What exactly are the fees included?

For many small and medium-sized enterprises, if they want to develop an app, most of their choices are to find outsourcing companies for assistance. After all, it takes a lot of time, manpower, and money to form a team to develop it. For small and medium-sized enterprises, the cost of building an in-house team is too high, and the technical threshold for app development is actually very high. If you have a specialization in the industry, looking for an outsourcing company to develop is not only more professional, but also more cost-effective. Beijing Muqi Mobile Technology Co., Ltd. is a professional software outsourcing development company. Welcome to discuss cooperation. Below is an introduction to the specific costs involved in APP development. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Basic paid items 1. Platform fee: USD 99 for Apple APP developers (USD 299 for enterprise developers) 2. Software license fee: After the APP development is completed, a license certificate is required to be put on the application market. The license fee is generally market price 3. SMS Cost (usually 4-5 points/item, APP needs to register through SMS verification code, SMS reminder, etc.) 4. Server cost: Purchase a cloud server based on the actual application scenario and the estimated number of users in the early stage. The initial cost is generally 2,000-5,000 yuan. /year is enough, and can be expanded at any time according to actual conditions in the middle and later stages. 5. Domain name fee: 50 yuan to 100 yuan per year to purchase a domain name (recommended com domain name) 6. SSL certificate fee: a must for merchants in the iOS market, you can use Alibaba in the early stage Development costs for the free version (lower security) provided by Cloud/Tencent and you 7. APP development costs: including three ends: Android end, IOS end and backend management end. The backend management end is usually a computer management system. If the manager It also needs to be managed on the APP side, so additional fees will be charged. Value-added service fee 8. ID card OCR recognition: Some platforms require real-name authentication. After the user uploads the ID card, the interface automatically scans and identifies the document information to fill in (usually a few cents per time. If ID authentication is mandatory, using this function can greatly improve efficiency. ) 9. Real-name authentication API interface fee: to verify whether the real-name authentication is actually used, usually a few cents per time 10. Logistics interface fee: General mall customers need this function most, and users can check logistics dynamics at any time 11. OSS storage fee: Education Categories, mall categories, video categories, as well as customers with many pictures and a large number of users all need this function. 12. CDN fee: improve access speed 13. Server security fee: purchase server security protection related functions to improve data security. The product design fee is in the APP Before the application is produced, a detailed development plan must be formulated, including market analysis and positioning, user research, enterprise situation analysis and demand acquisition, etc. The main purpose of doing this is to make the development work smoother, the ideas clearer, and the process more specific when making APP applications. At the same time, the developed APP applications will be more in line with the needs of the market and users, so that they can achieve better results. Effect. Therefore, this is a very important link and must be taken seriously, otherwise it will have a great impact on the effectiveness of the APP application. Interface design cost The aesthetic effect of APP applications is mainly reflected through design, and the effect of design is often directly proportional to the level of the designer and the cost of investment. If the company invests more in this area, it will design better renderings, so that users will like the APP more when they see it, and the APP will produce better results and more value. But if the company invests too little, it can only do it hastily when designing the interface. Such an interface effect will inevitably be very rough and will not be loved by users, and the APP application will eventually fail. Function Development Cost After designing the interface, the next step is to start making the APP application, adding corresponding functions to it, and making the APP application take shape. This is also an essential link in APP application development work. Without this link, APP applications cannot be developed, and the price will vary according to the functional requirements of the enterprise for the APP application. The more functions an enterprise needs to develop, the more development investment will be made, and the price will naturally rise. The fewer functions an enterprise needs, the less development investment will be, and the enterprise will spend less on functional development.

Later maintenance costs Enterprises should not think that there is no need to invest costs after the APP application is launched, because the APP application must run stably for users to use it normally, and to ensure stable operation, the APP application needs to be continuously maintained. When there are problems with APP applications, they must be repaired and optimized in time, updated versions, added new features, improved user experience, etc. Only in this way will the APP application be continuously improved and users will like it more and more. Therefore, after the enterprise launches the APP application, it must also do a good job in maintaining it so that the APP application can continue to be optimized. Labor cost factors Generally speaking, developers include UI designers, front-end engineers, server engineers, iOS and Android client engineers, etc. A good development team is an important prerequisite for developing an app.
