Frequently Asked Questions

App development costs in Malaysia range from RM 20,000 for simple MVPs to RM 200,000+ for complex enterprise applications. The cost depends on features, platforms (iOS, Android, or both), design complexity, and third-party integrations. We provide transparent pricing with detailed proposals before any work begins.

A simple app takes 2-3 months. Mid-complexity apps with payment integration and user management take 3-5 months. Complex enterprise apps can take 6-12 months. We provide a detailed timeline during the discovery phase.

For most Malaysian businesses, cross-platform frameworks like Flutter or React Native offer the best balance of cost, speed, and quality. They deliver 90-95% of native performance with a single codebase for both iOS and Android, reducing development cost by 30-40%. Native development is recommended for performance-critical apps like gaming or AR applications.
