Mobile apps are a bigger commitment than most businesses expect — not just to build, but to maintain. These are the questions worth answering first.
- Do you actually need native functionality, or would a web app (see our comparison) work just as well?
- iOS, Android, or both — and what does that mean for your budget?
- Who will maintain it after launch, including OS updates over time?
- What is the plan for app store approval and ongoing compliance?
- How will you drive downloads, since building it is only half the challenge?
- What data will the app need to store, and what does that mean for privacy and security?
- Does it need to work offline?
- What's the smallest version that would still be useful on day one?
