In revenues by 2021 mobile app set to generate almost $200 billion with approximately 350 billion downloads, apps are being sold, marketed, and developed at exponentially growing rates today, and there is no wonder in it.

Indeed, for download, there are currently 2.8 million available apps on Google's Play Store and Apple's App Store, another 2.2 million, and year after year, these numbers are growing.

On popular online stores with many available apps, the development time plays a significant role in it. Therefore, a query that is most commonly app developers get from clients is, "how much time is needed to develop an application?"

Which stages of app development need the most amount of time?

Developing the apps can take anywhere between three to five months on average, depending on the structure and the complexity of your app. Every stage included in the project require a different amount of time to complete, but out of these the most time-consuming tend to include:

- One or two weeks in writing a brief project
- Four to five weeks in researching your ideas with the developers
- Six to twelve weeks in design sprints
- Six to twelve weeks in development and prototyping
- Up to two weeks in deploying to the app store(s)

Always make sure:

The app development talks to you through the stages and process of the project, as to which stages leave the room for improvements, iterations, feedback, and testing, which will take the most amount of time and they will give you suggestions accordingly.

App Development Process

App Development Process

The app development timeline will be impacted greatly if a proper process is not followed for developing an app. Without following the process, your app will never make it to the play store. Those who have no creative experience or software will be at a disadvantage.

The procedure won't trump abilities, yet it very well might be a power multiplier for it. A solid procedure enables the imagination to thrive. Rather than intellectual ability and energy being committed to the normal, to some degree progressively commonplace components of an application, those things are just known. They become outlines to follow. They are standard, so the exceptional pieces of the application and key features can truly be honed.

Summing it up:

In each stage, realizing how much work is there to do for your app to be developed, hopefully, it'll help you to estimate the time it'll take. In planning and research, the more time you put, the more time you'll save later in the development process

Typically, though, the apps are being created from scrape to the launch point in three to four months. But the work never stops, if you plan to continuously provide the users with the latest updates as well as improvements. At last, it's essential to recall that the sooner you start, the sooner you'll have the option to carry your plan to the market.
