Questions for an iOS app developer in NYC
How much does iOS app development cost in NYC?
iPhone apps start from $20,000. Screens, backend connections, device features and payment flows determine the exact scope. Apple account fees, hosting and other third-party services are separate from development.
Have you shipped your own apps through App Store review?
Yes. Decalker and Linkbuk are my two apps on the App Store, listed under Raphael Salles. Decalker turns artwork into tattoo stencils; Linkbuk connects public profiles, booking and payments. Their case pages link to the actual store listings.
Can the app include in-app purchases?
Yes, if purchases are included in the agreed scope. I define what is sold, how access is granted, and how purchases are restored. The payment approach is checked against the applicable store requirements for your product before implementation.
Will my app be accepted by Apple?
Apple decides whether and when an app is accepted. I provide submission support and address review feedback within the agreed scope, but I do not promise approval or a review date. The publishing account belongs to you.
Can you build an Android version too?
Android on request, quoted separately. The published starting price is for an iPhone app. Platform-specific features, testing and distribution need to be included explicitly rather than assumed to transfer unchanged.
What is outside the app development scope?
App marketing, unlimited review revisions, ongoing feature releases and additional platforms are outside the default build. A backend, subscriptions or device integrations are included only when listed in the quote. You receive the code and agreed release support.
