You want to create a mobile app, but you don’t know how or where to start. You do your research and find many mobile app development companies, but you’re worry that some might not be right for you. So what should you do? The five secrets outlined in this article will tell you exactly who to work with and who to stay away from when looking for the best company to develop your mobile apps.
Secret #1: They’re required to be tech savvy
One of the first things you’ll notice about a mobile app developer is that they’re tech savvy. That may sound like an odd thing to say, but it’s not until you interview enough developers that you realize how rare it is for them to be computer-literate or know their way around basic technology products (like smartphones and tablets). As one very successful freelance developer once said: When I get on a call with a new client I never have to ask what type of device they have, whether or not they use Android or iOS, or what their carrier is – because I already know that information from looking at their portfolio and background info.
The best part? It only takes me about 5 minutes to figure out if we’re a good fit for each other. If you can’t answer these questions during your initial meeting, then chances are you’re going to run into some issues down the road.
Secret #2: There are hidden costs for app development
Certain apps cost more than others, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are best for your needs or your business. Always seek a quote based on all costs including fixed and variable costs; if a quote does not include an explanation of what’s include, then there is no way to evaluate whether or not it is a good deal for you. Some apps may be cheap up front, but expensive in maintenance and upgrades.
Asking about these additional charges might save you from having to pay extra when it’s too late to change vendors.

Secret #3: Quality Is Job One
I’ve always found it odd that as a culture we tend to talk about things, people, and concepts as good or bad, when in fact most of them can be categorize as simply being either good enough or not quite good enough. When developing your app (or anything else for that matter), focus on doing your absolute best, rather than making sure that what you do is just good enough to get by. What separates one quality app from another is almost always nuanced—but those nuances add up to truly make or break a successful product down the road. You only have one chance to make a first impression—so make it count!
If you want to develop an app that goes above and beyond everyone else’s offerings, try asking yourself these two questions: How would I like my app to look? and What am I willing to sacrifice for its design? Don’t forget about functionality–although cool features are fun, if they get in the way of usability then they’re ultimately counterproductive. Does your app have any design elements that might prove frustrating during actual use? If so, remove them now; don’t wait until after launch. Ask yourself: Do my users actually need XYZ feature? Will it impact their ability to use my product? If your answers are ‘no’ or ‘not likely,’ cut out whatever will slow down use time and hurt user experience.

Secret #4: Are They Open to New Ideas?
If you have a great idea for an app, then you’ll want to find a mobile app developer who is receptive to it and willing to work with you to build it. For example, if your app will rely on location-based technology or speech recognition capabilities, you’ll want someone who’s skilled in these fields. Even if there are parts of your idea that aren’t fully bake yet, tell potential developers about them anyway so they can tell you how feasible they are for inclusion in your final product. If their reaction isn’t positive or helpful, then move on!
Secret #5: How Much Should You Spend on an App?
There’s no standard cost for developing an app. The only thing that matters is how much it costs to get your app done, and how well it works when it’s done. You should also consider any other costs like marketing or development of a website, as well as consulting services if you have special needs or require outside help with features like social media integration, location awareness, streaming video or high-resolution images. If you’re thinking about hiring someone to develop your app, doing some research upfront will be one of your best investments: You can save time and money by knowing what a reasonable budget is before you start building apps!
Conclusion
If you need a mobile app developer, don’t go to a website to look for one because it won’t provide you with what you need. Instead, go to search engines like google and do your own research on how to find one that will fit into your business model and how much they charge per hour or per project. Read reviews by other companies who have worked with them in the past and ask around to other mobile application developers as well because they might be able to point you in someone’s direction who is experience enough in their craft while being able to fit into your budget of creating an app from scratch with limited funds at hand.
