The short answer: it varies. The long answer: it could start as low as $50,000 and really has no ceiling. The reason why mobile apps are so costly compared to web applications is that mobile apps have to be custom-built and go through a lengthy design and development process.

But we don’t do that at Brain Box. Some companies develop code for both iOS and Android, which means writing two sets of applications, which costs a lot of time and money. At Brain Box, we use a framework for creating mobile apps that automatically deploys our code for both operating systems, saving our clients a considerable amount of time and money.
