Frequently Asked Questions

How much does app development cost?

An MVP or prototype starts at 15,000 EUR. A full-featured mobile app typically ranges from 30,000 to 100,000 EUR. Enterprise solutions from 80,000 EUR and up. In our free initial consultation, I'll give you a realistic figure — no guesswork.

How long does development take?

You'll have a clickable prototype in 3 to 4 weeks. A finished app takes 3 to 6 months. Every 14 days you receive a testable build — so you see continuous progress.

Do I need a technical specification?

No. Most of my clients are CEOs, product managers, or marketing directors — not developers. I work together with you to create the technical specification.

Which platforms do you develop for?

iOS, Android, Web (PWA), cross-platform with Flutter or React Native, as well as specialized solutions with Unity 3D for 3D and AR applications. I typically build so that one app runs on multiple platforms simultaneously.

How does the collaboration work?

Step 1: Free 30-minute call. Step 2: I provide a proposal with a clear price and timeline. Step 3: Every 2 weeks you receive a testable build and give feedback. You have full control at all times.

What about data privacy and GDPR?

Data privacy is built in from the start — Privacy by Design. All apps are developed GDPR-compliant. If needed, also with certification (e.g., digital health apps, CE). German servers, German contracts.

Who owns the finished app?

You do. I transfer all rights, the complete source code, and the documentation. German contract, NDA as standard. You can have the app further developed by another developer at any time.

Do you offer maintenance after launch?

Yes, optionally. Many clients use my maintenance contracts for regular updates, OS compatibility, and technical upkeep. But you're not locked in — I can hand over the project completely if needed.

Can I start with just an MVP?

Absolutely — I actually recommend it. Start with an MVP and test the market. If it works, we scale together. No risk, no all-or-nothing.

What sets you apart from agencies?

No agency overhead. You work directly with me — the developer who builds your app. That means faster communication, fewer misunderstandings, and more of your budget going into actual development.
