“I know that making an app can seem like a daunting process – especially when you’re not an app developer” Elaine, App consultant.

Well the good news is you don’t need tech skills. I cannot code – and I’ve published 430 apps, by learning how to outsource my apps to freelancer app developers. It’s not rocket science.

Ways I can help your app development project

App consultant: App design & planning

One of the most critical parts of creating a successful app, is making sure your app will reach its goals, and also that your app will be accepted into the app store. Both Apple & Google have a long list of guidelines that all apps must adhere to in order to be accepted to be published on the store. Apples app review process is renowned for setting a high standard, and so if you app is not designed in a way that will meet their guidelines, they can easily refuse your app. Then you’ve spent a lot of money on an app that people can never use. This is probably on of the most common issues with app development, and which can be avoided if proper planning & consideration is taken during the app design process.

The next step in app design, is getting all your ideas down on paper. before you even think of hiring an app development team, you must have a word doc created (a feature spec) that details every single screen in your app, and what each screen will do.

Along with a feature spec, you will also need an app wireframe. This can be as simple as pen & paper drawings of every screen in your app. Or you can create a clickable prototype, which I would highly advise.

To maximise your changes of success & get accurate quotes from app development teams, I would strongly advise you create both a feature spec & clickable wireframe before you start to look for developers. Both of these I am happy to help you create on an app VIP day.

Making sure your app idea is both validated & mapped out correctly will save you a lot of time & money in the long run.

App development outsourcing in India & beyond

The next step is outsourcing your app development, choosing your app platforms & language & starting production. If this is your first time creating an app, having a consultant nearly to answer your questions as development begins can be very useful.
