Anyone good with OS / Android App Developing?

[DTID]

I know there are a few tech minded people on here so thought I'd ask the question. I'm after creating an Android / OS app. I downloaded an app making kit but it was so complex and involved a lot of coding etc (why I don't have a clue about).

Are there any websites that have templates which can be used to create apps? If so, once these apps are created who owns the rights to the app - me or the website?

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Nothing football related. Sounds boring but it will be a vital information tool which can be altered and used across a variety of professions. It will also be of interest to those who wish to join those professions too.

Very brief, I know! I have contacted various north east developers to see if they can assist. Would prefer to get an app designer on board on a commission basis though as I plan to sell the app for around £4.99 in the Play and Apple App Stores once completed.

Hi, there are many app development softwares out there. But many involve knowing how to code, it can take a while to learn how to code for android and apple OS. But, tutorials are found round the internet i.e. YouTube. You are better off going for a developer to do it for you, because it is quicker and easier if you are busy.

A bit of advice which I have seen quite a lot is that with the Play market your application gets accepted right away it doesn't need to go through various copyright procedures like Apple. Also, on the Play market even when you put your app on the free market you can still make a lot of money through the various advertisements methods that they provide. Sorry if you already knew this it's just a helpful tip that I have found.

I see, didn't know whether the software would code for you. If I would need to do the coding myself then I will have to use an app developer. My main concern though is the cost to develop it.

As for selling the app, I did hear it was reasonably easy to put apps straight on the play market and heard it is difficult to register apps for whatever reason with Apple.

I could also do with speaking to an app developer about the pros and cons of advertisements and how much revenue it could produce in comparison. But as I am wanting to help design an app for professionals I would prefer it not to be ad ridden as in app adverts are well annoying!

Good luck with that, but I suspect you'll struggle...

Fortunately software isn't that advanced yet! Very, very simple things can be created from templates, but it doesn't sound like your case fits the bill.

I think I will struggle to get an app developer on a a commission basis alone, you're right. May have to just stump up the cash upfront myself depending how much it will cost to develop.

PM me your e-mail address. If you give me a little more information about what you're doing (promise I'm not fishing to steal your idea!) I can:

1. Give you an idea how long it would take to develop.
2. Give you a rough idea how much it would cost.
3. Point you at some decent developers who do outsourced code development.

I could also give you some good pointers about how to start coding if you wanted to give it a bash yourself, but since you say you intend it to be used by professionals, they would likely know the difference between an application developed by a software engineer and someone who has just taught themselves.

I believe the reason that Apple takes so long to verify your app is because of copyright. Most of the apps for the Apple market get rejected... But with the Play market you don't need to go through all that so I have heard.
