How to estimate your app cost

Answer four questions; the estimate updates as you go.

  • Time: 2 minutes

You'll need: A list of what users should be able to do in your app

  1. Choose platforms

    Flutter builds Android and iOS from one codebase. A web app (PWA) costs less and needs no app store approval.

  2. Tick the features

    Login, catalogue, payments, bookings, notifications, tracking, chat and admin reports — the biggest cost drivers.

  3. Add extra apps

    Delivery, vendor or staff apps add significant work because each has its own screens and rules.

  4. Choose design and download

    Pick standard or custom design, then download the PDF or ask us for an exact quote.

How the estimate is calculated

The platform sets the base cost for the app shell, core screens and backend setup. Each feature adds a typical range including its backend and admin work. Building for Android and iOS with Flutter adds about 30% over a single platform (far less than two native apps), while a PWA saves around 20%. Extra user apps and custom design add their own ranges. The numbers match our app development cost guide.

Start with an MVP

The cheapest way to build a successful app is to launch with only the features needed to prove that people use and pay for it. Untick everything that isn’t essential for the first version and compare the estimates — the difference often funds your first marketing campaign.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an app cost in India?

Simple apps typically cost ₹1–3 lakh, medium apps ₹3–10 lakh and complex apps like delivery or marketplace platforms ₹10–40 lakh or more.

Is Flutter cheaper than building two native apps?

Yes. One Flutter codebase serves Android and iOS, typically costing about 30% more than one platform rather than double.

Does the estimate include the backend and admin panel?

Yes. Feature ranges include backend work, and the admin panel is listed separately so you can see its cost.

What yearly costs should I expect?

Hosting, store developer accounts, and maintenance of roughly 15–25% of the build cost each year.

Is my information stored?

No. The calculator runs in your browser and nothing is saved.
