A native app is written specifically for one operating system, like Android or iOS. A hybrid app has some native code but also relies on programming languages that all operating systems can understand. ZeusMission offers both hybrid and native app development services because both approaches have their advantages. Hybrid apps can sometimes be faster and more cost effective to deploy to multiple mobile operating systems, but native apps typically perform more smoothly and quickly. For example, front-end programming for a particular app might cost $10,000 for Android and an additional $10,000 for iOS, totaling $20,000 if both are built natively. A hybrid approach might cost more like $13,000 for both.
Archives: FAQs
Do you have any stats on how many downloads your clients’ apps have ?
App owners receive statistics from the various download services for their own apps. We do not keep track of clients’ stats, but there are some figures on our Case Studies page and you might find some companies boasting about their downloads on their own websites.
Do you have references for your app development services ?
Take a look at the customer reviews on the Our Testimonial section or contact our sales team directly to request a personal reference.
How can I make sure my app will get downloads ?
There’s no such thing as a guarantee, but our digital marketing services can help your app gain the exposure it needs to have a chance at rising above the crowd. Also, we create blogs to promote your app.
How is the app distributed ?
Consumers will be able to download apps right on their devices. We’re experts in the submission process, having submitted hundreds of apps for hundreds of clients to the various consumer download services:
Apple iTunes App Store
Google Play for Android
Enterprise apps can be distributed on your own private server.
Can we do some of the app development work ourselves ?
Of course! If you have the technical know how or artwork ready, and just need something specific from us, we can cater to your needs. The idea is yours, so bring as much to the table as you can.
How long does it take to develop an app ?
Simple apps can be completed in a couple weeks, while more complex apps might take several months. The more clearly you’ve defined your idea and how it will work as an app, the more closely we can estimate a time frame.
How is my mobile app idea protected ?
One of the very first steps in the app development timeline is the signing of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) by both ZeusMission and you, the prospective client. This protects both parties, since we’ll be working very closely together. Once it’s finished, the app and all its source code and intellectual property belong to you.
How much does it cost to develop an App ?
ZeusMission’s hourly rate for app development is less than $10 per hour. An average app project might cost about $5K – 2000K USD, with functionality and complexity raising or lowering the price accordingly.
Will you develop my app idea for profit share ?
ZeusMission works strictly as a developer for hire. We do not participate in any revenue splits or percentage agreements. That means while you shoulder development costs, you own your app free and clear, including source code and intellectual property.
