Was kostet Mobile-App-Entwicklung? (United States)

US mid-market firms frequently budget quarterly. Anchoring to EUR campaign floors (Ads setup €349, SEO Pro €599/mo, apps from ~€8000) helps avoid US agency sticker shock while keeping scope honest. Viele MVPs starten gesprächsweise ab etwa €8.000 — nach Discovery mit schriftlichem Scope.

FAQ

How much does it cost to build an app in 2026?

It varies widely. Duyuz uses discovery to bound MVP cost; many focused MVPs start in conversation around €8,000+, while complex products are custom.

Do I need a native app?

Not always. We recommend native when store distribution or device capabilities truly matter.

How long is an MVP?

Often roughly 8–16+ weeks after discovery, written in the proposal.

Fixed price or time and materials?

We prefer fixed scope for MVP boundaries; open-ended product discovery is quoted differently.

Do you work with US time zones?

Yes. Delivery is remote across the US with async updates and scheduled calls in overlapping hours.

Are prices in USD?

List floors are EUR. Quotes can show approximate USD and lock payment terms before kickoff.
