Due to the dissimilar economic conditions of the countries, the hourly cost of mobile app development varies accordingly.

To give you a contrast, the hourly cost of development in the USA lies somewhere between, $150 – $250 USD, in the UK it is, $150 – $180 USD, whereas in India the hourly cost is somewhere between $60 – $120 USD.

Since the cost is dependent on the condition of the respective country, there is no difference in the competence of the developers.

A minimum viable product (MVP) version of the app can be developed at a much lesser price than a powerful application that comes with all the modern and advanced features.

Mobile Platform
