What to compare before requesting a quote
For a project in capital, specify which meetings or tasks need to happen on site. Ask which visits are included and what travel would cost separately.
Specify the platforms, user journeys and integrations. Compare device testing, app-store submission, ownership of publishing accounts and maintenance after release.

Mobile app development costs and project scope
To compare mobile app development companies, send each shortlisted team the same brief and ask for an itemised proposal. A headline price is only useful when the included features, delivery responsibilities and ongoing costs are clear.
What should your app development quote include?
- Platforms and features: specify iOS, Android or both, user roles and the essential journeys for the first release. Ask the team to explain its proposed native or cross-platform approach.
- Design and integrations: identify the screens, admin dashboard, existing systems, payment providers and data migration required. Separate optional features from the agreed launch scope.
- Testing and launch: agree supported devices, acceptance checks, revision rounds and who handles store submission. Ask which third-party, hosting and publishing fees are excluded.
- Support and ownership: distinguish defect fixes from new features, request maintenance terms, and agree access to source code, documentation and publishing accounts.
How do you compare app development proposals?
Ask for a relevant app example and confirm what the proposed team delivered. Compare milestones, acceptance criteria and payment stages against the same scope. Request a separate estimate for ongoing services and a written process for pricing changes; confirm the quote currency and applicable taxes.
What should you include in your RFQ?
Describe the business goal, target users, required languages, must-have features, integrations, budget range and target launch date. Add sketches or examples if available, and identify who will supply content and approve each milestone. State which features can wait until a later release.
