Android App Development Services

One person simply can‘t have all the necessary knowledge and experience to build the entire app, especially when the project is complex. You will need:

1. a mobile developer;
2. a back-end developer;
3. a DevOps specialist;
4. a designer;
5. a QA Specialist.

That’s five people in total and that’s a bare minimum. If you outsource your project to an Android app development company, you’ll be provided with a project manager to manage the development team and report to you on the project progress.

If you want your project to move faster you will need to add more developers. Having more than one developer in the team helps a lot during the code reviews. Developers can cross-check their lines of code and find issues that another developer might have missed.

The time it will take to build an app depends on many factors like the scope of the project, (features, the screen sizes that need to be supported), design (simple/basic/custom), testing (simple/middle-complexity/complex app). On average, it takes 400-600 hours to build a simple app, 600-800 hours to create a middle-complexity app, and 1000-1300 to develop a complex app.

Every company has its own tech stack so the tools will vary. In general, all companies use a set of programming languages, integrated development environments, and additional tools that help facilitate the development process. You can see what tools the SCAND team uses in the Android Technologies Stack section.

You need a team of seasoned Android developers who know how to build high-quality apps efficiently. And, of course, you need a set of clearly defined business requirements because the project team has to know what they are building, why they are building it, and what to expect at the end. If your business requirements are poorly defined, you risk getting something you didn’t expect. If you need help with defining your business objectives, you can get a free consultation from our specialists.
