Besides, there’s no single price tag set for a mobile app, as features are different for every app project. The mobile app cost in South Africa has got quotes ranging from R 100000 to R 200000, just for development. A simple app in the international standards can cost you $ 10000- $12000. The cost ranges extremely from zero to unbelievably expensive prices that could reach millions. These prices are due to multiple factors at play. The cost to build your mobile app depends on the following aspects;

• Type of mobile app. Different mobile apps will have different features and functions and so is the cost of building it. Type of mobile app includes business, mobile game, social networking, lifestyle, banking, transport and many more.
• Platforms. The platform that you want to run your mobile application is significant in determining the cost of your app’s development. In South Africa, it could be on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. Android apps are considered expensive because it supports a variety of devices and requires compound efforts to develop.
• Design. The design of the app can be basic, individual, and custom.
• The number of pages of the application. The more pages the app will have, the higher the price and vice versa.
• Features and infrastructure. You should note that there’s no price tag set as features and infrastructure are different for every app project. They may have various designs and a unique logic behind them. They include; user login, navigation, push notification, media content, Geolocation, Ads, messaging, Google maps integration, payment integration, and many more.

Unfortunately, your mobile app development cost doesn’t end with the application launching and release. In fact, it’s just the beginning because we still have to maintain the app which also attracts certain charges, and as long as you want people to keep using your app as often as possible. For instance, if your mobile app costs you $ 400000 to develop in South Africa, you can estimate the app maintenance cost will be around $80000 per annum. Also, additional features such as payment gateways, bug fixing, emergency maintenance, powerful servers, and third-party APIs may drive up the cost of app maintenance.
