The question you should be asking is not how much it costs to build the app, but how much marketing will cost to get people to use the app and how you will differentiate from your competitors. Quoting big industry numbers simply demonstrates that you don't understand the basic business economics yet and are being motivated by the wrong things.

Folks rough estimates are about right $20-$30K, but I would say this is per platform + backend. So, your MVP for let's say iOS will probably cost ~$25K + another $10-15K for backend. If you want to move in the direction of a Web platform for your MVP, it might cost you a bit less. If you need help in doing deeper evaluation of your needs, you can go through a Discovery phase in identifying all the necessary features, user stories, functional diagrams and cost. I'll be happy to discuss it with you. ilya.lipovich@getcider.com

Not an answer to your question, but as an aside, please include a feature that verifies that the profiles aren't fake identities and scammers!

John, not really. I just joined a few dating sites, and it's horrifying how many scammers are out there.

It would cost approx 20K USD-25K USD depending on the features that needed to be integrated in the app.

There are a lot of ways a software development process can go wrong. Some of them can be easily accounted for while the others are unforeseeable. That’s why any custom software development cost analysis is tricky. While any estimation has a chance to fail, by paying attention to the right elements and leaving enough leeway, there is a way to overcome this obstacle.

To all the people responding with estimates: in what country are you assuming development will happen? In the US, developers will average $100/hr vs maybe $10-15/hr for developers in APAC. If you are projecting a cost of $30-40,000, is that assuming $100/hr dev cost?
