App cost calculator
Answer five questions to get a price range, a timeline, and an honest suggestion for how to build it, including when you don’t need an app at all.
The options
Four ways to build it
- Flutter
- One codebase for Android and iPhone with the same look on both. The best balance of cost and quality for most business apps.
- .NET MAUI
- Cross-platform in C#. The natural fit when your systems and team are already on .NET, or you need a Windows app too.
- Native
- Separate Kotlin and Swift apps. The most control over hardware, at close to twice the cost.
- Web app (PWA)
- Runs in the browser and installs to the home screen. No store listing, no store fees, instant updates.
Questions
About app costs
How much does it cost to build an app?
With us, apps start from ₹2 lakh for a small app with one main job. The price grows with features like logins, payments and live updates, and with the backend and admin panel, which are often half the work, so leave room for them.
Flutter or native: which should I choose?
For most business apps, Flutter: one codebase for Android and iPhone, so it costs less and both stay in step. Native (Kotlin and Swift) earns its extra cost when the app leans hard on phone hardware, like Bluetooth devices, background tracking or AR.
When is a web app enough?
If people don’t need to find it in an app store, it doesn’t need to work offline or send push notifications, a progressive web app (PWA) installs from the browser for far less, and updates instantly.
Why do you build in both Flutter and .NET MAUI?
Because the right choice depends on the client. MAUI suits teams that already work in C# and .NET or need a Windows app. For Finlysis we built both, so the client could compare them on their own data before committing.
