Smartphones and other mobile devices have changed the way we learn. Thanks to mobile apps and modern technology, learning is easier, more engaging, and much more accessible. This also means that you now have a thriving education market which can be a very appealing business niche, with many companies, big and small, looking to join in on the action. If you work for one of these companies, this article is for you. We’re going to cover the costs of developing an educational app.
Potential features
Many features can be added during the process of developing an educational app to increase its UX. For example, many learning apps implement registration and user accounts as features because they allow both teachers and students to customize their experience and get more out
of the app. A search feature is almost universally useful, especially if you have an app with a lot of learning material. Optional add-ons include push notifications, analytics, and videos/live streaming for webinars. Finally, apps intended for multiple international audiences will also benefit from multi-language capabilities implemented at the code level, allowing a company to translate the app into a target language automatically.
Costs
The cost of developing an educational app will depend on a few factors. For example, if you outsource development, you will find a more affordable price. However, the price tag will almost always boil down to the app’s complexity, the number of features that you want to have implemented, the platforms for which it will be developed, and the overall development time.
Most companies charge an hourly rate which can fluctuate wildly from company to company. As such, the cost of developing an educational app can range anywhere from $15,000 to over $50,000. Your best course of action if you want to find the best price will be to shop around, look
through several companies’ portfolios and find the best fit for your expectations and budget.
