开发商对Twitterrific这样的iPhone应用收费多少?

我想知道这一点,因为我需要这样一个具有相同功能的新社区网站的应用程序。我会Ruby,但没有Objective-C的经验。因此,如果我开始阅读有关iPhone编程的书籍,或者将工作外包给iPhone程序员,对我来说会很有趣。

以上所提到的价格是你希望支付给美国开发者的价格;然而,我确实认识一些人,他们可以通过离岸开发者以低至4000美元的价格开发自己的应用。

此外,卡拉·怀特写了一本很棒的电子书,讲述了她把自己的应用程序“内部秘密”外包给iPhone应用程序的过程。她谈到自己是如何得到一笔好交易的,因为她愿意与一个仍在学习iPhone应用程序开发的团队合作。

所以,除了上述开发者所讨论的高价游戏,我们还有其他选择。

我是一名非常优秀的iPhone应用程序开发人员,我的服务收费超过每小时150美元。我在开发iPhone应用程序及其服务器端组件方面有丰富的经验。我也曾多次被叫去修复海外开发的应用程序。以下是我的看法。

Design costs money, good design costs lots of money. Expect several designer weeks of work per app screen. Offshore teams do not do design. Server development and infrastructure is critical if the app is to succeed. A slow server response, or an overloaded server will hamper your app, and crimp sales and satisfaction. The server side of the equation will cost the most and take the most time to develop. Those who offshore their server development will find that quality and uptime are both terrible, in my experience. App development if done right takes time too. A professional developer will ensure all HIG rules are followed, the app is properly structured and contains no known errors, it performs well, and it passes the app store validations. Offshore teams just cut code.

I'm just about to release a shopping app for a client. The design work was done by 2 client in-house designers over 2 weeks, quick because they had all the image assets already. Think 2 people x 10 days x 8 hours = ~$24,000. The server side had to be modified to provide data for the iPhone app. We used their in-house team and in-house platform and in-house API, 2 developers, 4 weeks, or about $50,000 and that's because they already have a web shop and API. Cost them about $400,000 to get there (excluding platform). And I wrote the app side in 3 weeks, given that a lot of my code is duplicated from previous projects, another ~$25,000, the cheapest app I ever did.

总花费:10万美元,这真是太便宜了!

他们会免费提供,这样客户就会用iphone从他们的商店购买。

对于你的应用程序,彼得,如果你有服务器、api和设计,我猜根据复杂程度需要3万到6万美元。如果你没有设计,加倍。如果你没有api,再翻倍…

I am the developer for Coupious mobile coupons iPhone app and with the amount of time that I spent on that application (v1.0 - v1.5), it was probably a $15,000 - $20,000 investment. However, to be fair, I do admit that I was the only developer working on it and when I started the project, I had never seen or used Objective-C before. Despite that, three months later, it was released so the numbers are probably a little skewed because there was a fair amount of learning going on as well as coding.

然而,有能力的iPhone开发者根据他们的技能和使用平台的时间在80美元至150美元之间运行。我想说,对于一个简单的应用程序,应用程序可能运行2K-5K,中等复杂度的应用程序运行5K-15K,相当复杂的应用程序运行15K-30K。游戏应用甚至更多。

之所以这么高,是因为这项技能是相当专业的,不是每个人都能做到

巴拉克·奥巴马的应用程序从第一个代码到发布花了22天的时间。3名开发者(尽管并非所有人都是全职开发者)。一共10个人。图500-1000工时。承包费率为每小时100-150美元。图50000 - 150000美元。将你的应用程序与奥巴马进行比较。应用和相应的规模。

Appsamuck iPhone教程的目标是31天的教程,最后是31个为iPhone开发的小应用程序,所有源代码都可以下载。他们还提供商业服务来构建应用程序!

如果你想知道你是否能编码,至少你可以下载代码,看看是否有任何东西对你的需求有帮助。另一方面,你也可以从他们那里获得为你开发应用的报价,所以你可以尝试硬币的两面,外包和内部。当然,这也取决于你有多少时间!这当然值得一看!

(好吧,在我上次尝试发布有用的帮助后,我四处寻找!)
