Questions about
Mobile App Support and Maintenance
Maintaining and updating an app is an ongoing investment, essential for keeping your app relevant, functional, and competitive. The cost of keeping an app running in the UK can vary based on several factors:
Generally, the cost of maintaining an app can range from 10% to 20% of the original development cost annually. The actual cost can vary depending on your app's specific needs and your own capabilities for some of the above tasks.
Foresight Mobile can assist you with publishing your app to the multitude of Android stores worldwide. These include manufacturer app stores such as the Samsung Galaxy Store, Amazon App Store, Huawei AppGallery and Xiaomi GetApps. We can also help you distribute through China-specific stores if required.
The development time for an app can vary significantly depending upon a number of factors. A simple app with basic functionality might take 2-4 months, with more complex apps taking up to 6 months to complete.
Mobile apps need maintenance to ensure their long-term success, security, and optimal performance in the ever-changing mobile app landscape. Regular maintenance allows us to quickly identify and fix bugs, optimise your user experience, and prevent unnecessary downtime.
Keeping your app updated with the latest platform requirements, industry standards, and user expectations is crucial for maintaining compliance, competitiveness, and relevance. Maintenance also includes vital security updates to safeguard user data and preserve user trust.
Additionally, app maintenance offers the opportunity to continuously refine features and functionality based on user feedback, KPIs and market trends, contributing to user satisfaction, increased retention, and sustained growth for your app.
While it is possible for a single developer to maintain a mobile app, it can be challenging, and less effective than having a dedicated team. A single mobile developer may lack the breadth of expertise required to effectively manage various aspects of app maintenance, such as back-end functionality, cloud infrastructure or design.
By partnering with a dedicated app maintenance team, you benefit from a wider range of skills, experience, and resources to keep your app running smoothly, updated, and competitive. We’ll assign the most appropriate developer, designer or cloud engineer to your tasks - ensuring that updates are cost effective and expertly crafted.
Maintaining a mobile app is essential to ensure its long-term success, optimal performance, and security. Regular app maintenance helps identify and fix bugs, enhance user experience, and prevent unnecessary downtime. As the mobile app landscape constantly evolves with new platform requirements, industry standards, and user expectations, keeping your app updated ensures it stays compliant and competitive.
Regular security updates are critical to safeguard user data and protect your app from emerging cyber threats. By investing in app maintenance, you also create opportunities to expand features and functionality based on user feedback and market trends. This proactive approach not only results in a more reliable and engaging app but also helps build user trust and loyalty, ultimately driving your app's growth and revenue potential.
Yes of course! Your maintenance days will accrue if unused, allowing you to build-up enough time to work on any features or improvements you require. Our in-house design team is on-hand to work on the visuals before our tech team action the feature development and measure its impact.
More significant pieces of work can also be arranged at a reduced rate, ensuring you have the flexibility of a full development team without the associated costs.
We’ll communicate directly with your previous agency to facilitate the smooth transition of your investment to both yourself and Foresight. You’ll receive all of the code and credentials you need to work with any agency you choose going forward. We can either communicate directly with the developers or agency, or advise and direct the process through yourself to ensure that we have everything you need to continue making your app a success.
We support your business goals by aligning our app maintenance and development efforts with your strategic objectives and user needs. From the onset, we work closely with you to understand your business vision, target audience, and app requirements.
Our experienced developers and CTO have a wide range of technical and product management experience across various industries. This knowledge, combined with a fresh perspective on your application will allow us to focus our maintenance efforts and provide new ideas for your business.
To keep costs to a minimum we’ll implement automated dashboards through Google Analytics, which will track all of the key performance indicators for your app. As part of our initial consultation we’ll ensure that we’re aware of your product goals and create custom events and conversions to track these in detail, along with any user acquisition methods so that you have a complete picture.
We monitor your app’s performance through a combination of custom analytics dashboards, performance monitoring and crash monitoring. This enables us to proactively identify and resolve potential problems before they impact user experience.
By closely tracking vital performance metrics like app crashes, load times, and user engagement, we can identify and resolve potential problems before they impact user experience. We also monitor customer reviews and feedback, as well as conduct regular quality assurance tests with our internal test team. This comprehensive approach ensures that your app delivers a smooth and reliable service.
Mobile app maintenance is a continuous process that ensures your mobile application performs optimally, remains secure, and stays updated with the latest platform requirements and industry standards. This involves monitoring app performance, addressing technical issues, implementing regular security updates, and continuously adapting to evolving user needs and expectations.
Costs can vary depending upon the complexity of the app, the back-end technologies used and the number of active users you're supporting. App support can start from as little as £725 / month and we'll have a better idea after a quick chat and completing your free code audit.
