ASK: iPhone Contract Work
What is the average I should expect to pay an iphone app developer for a piece of contract work? I have an idea for an app but have no experience in working with a developer. What is the going rate?

- codeglomeration 16y agoheh. That's pretty much a reference post now, I see.
- codeglomeration 16y agoThe ranges are all over the place. But I would say for a competent developer they start around $50 per hour. Under this rate, and especially at the lowest rates, quality becomes a gamble. You might be able to find someone competent living in a country with lower costs of living, offering a lower rate, but usually if they're good, their rates will just be slightly lower, especially since iOS development is such in a high demand now. There's a post on StackOverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/209170/how-much-does-it-cost-to-develop-an-iphone-application http://stackoverflow.com/questions/209170/how-much-does-it-c...) that contains a lot of information about what it means to build a quality application, and that will give you some idea of the time frame you can expect. There are also some mentions of websites where you can look for hire.
