Platforms
iOS, Android, cross-platform delivery, and device support affect implementation and release effort.
Mobile app pricing
Plan an app around real user value.
CodeActivv scopes mobile products around the jobs users need done, the systems behind them, and a release plan you can validate.
What affects pricing
Product workflows
The number of roles, screens, permissions, and edge cases shapes the app’s complexity.
Backend needs
New APIs, databases, administration tools, and integrations can be as significant as the mobile interface.
Device capabilities
Location, camera, notifications, offline use, and hardware features require specific engineering and testing.
Security and compliance
Sensitive data, authentication, and regulated contexts require additional design and validation.
Store release process
App Store and Play Store preparation, review requirements, and release coordination affect launch planning.
Scope comparison
Ranges are directional — final investment is confirmed after discovery, not from a one-size price list.

Timeline: Delivered in roadmap phases
A clearer path to a reliable estimate
We replace broad assumptions with a shared scope, practical delivery plan, and estimate built around the work that will create value.
Discover
We discuss outcomes, users, existing systems, constraints, and the decisions that affect effort.
Scope
We turn priorities into a focused backlog, identify dependencies, and separate essentials from later enhancements.
Estimate
CodeActivv provides a transparent, scoped estimate with delivery assumptions and a practical timeline.
Deliver
Work is delivered in visible milestones, so you can review progress and make informed trade-offs.
Pricing FAQs
Should we build for iOS and Android together?
That depends on your audience, product requirements, and timeline. We recommend native or cross-platform delivery after discovery.
Can CodeActivv help define the MVP?
Yes. We help separate the smallest valuable release from enhancements that can wait for evidence from users.
Do you build the backend too?
We can scope backend services, APIs, and admin tools alongside the app, or integrate with your existing systems.
How are app-store requirements handled?
We plan for store guidelines, signing, privacy information, testing, and submission as part of the release work.
Can an app work offline?
It can, but offline behavior needs clear rules for cached data, sync conflicts, and user feedback, which we assess early.
Will we own the app?
Ownership and access arrangements are defined in the engagement terms so your team has a clear handover path.
Can you improve an existing app?
Yes. We start with a technical and product assessment to identify the highest-value improvements or migration path.
What happens after release?
We can plan monitoring, iteration, operating-system updates, and new features as an ongoing product roadmap.
