Here, the development cost depends on several factors like app complexity, features, and whether the app is developed for both platforms, namely, iOS and Android. Some of the core features like a user profile, messaging, sending and accepting requests, and sending notifications make a general cost hike by a lot. Other features with high value and high complexity include video calls, group chats, and personalized recommendations. Besides the above factors, all the maintenance and updates are expensive as well. Partnering with an offshore company like USM Systems helps ensure that such apps are properly developed and released so that the user experience is seamless while performance is optimized for scalability.
