Frequently asked questions regarding fitness software development solutions

• How long does it take to develop a fitness app?

  Usually, we aim to get you to the market with MVP in 2-3 months, but it depends on many factors connected to your project needs and assumptions, e.g. what kind of app, web or mobile, you want to build. To prepare proper estimates, we need to know what type of functionalities your fitness app is supposed to include, how many developers would have to work on it, what other steps should be taken before starting the development process, what technologies we will use, etc. That’s why at the beginning, we invite you to schedule an initial call with one of our consultants.

   

• How much does it cost to develop a fitness app with Neoteric?

  It can cost as little as $50K for an MVP or even $500K for a complex product. Same as in the case of time estimations, we need to consider several important factors to assess the cost of developing your fitness app. Tell us about your project idea, and let’s discuss the further details, so we can collect all the necessary information (your requirements regarding the app’s type – web/mobile, features, technologies, etc.) and give you proper estimates.

• What if the users won’t like my new fitness app?

  To avoid that, before we start the development process, we run a workshop that helps us validate your fitness app idea and its assumptions. Then we prepare clickable mockups, so you can run user interviews and get their insights about each feature you plan to implement. Next, we design an MVP version of your product so that you can test all the features with your end-users.

• Do I need to go through one of the workshops?

  A workshop is a crucial step in the development process. It allows us to prepare a solid plan considering all the essential elements of your project and provide you with better estimates. Thanks to that, you can plan the budget and align the project timelines with your business goals.

• How can I monetize my fitness app?

  There are pleeenty of ways you can make money from your fitness application. You can consider freemium upsell, crowdfunding, paid subscription plans, paid premium content, advertisement, sponsorships, selling fitness equipment or other related products (in-app purchase), transaction fees, etc. We’d say sky (your creativity) is the limit here.

  Also, if your product is a fitness mobile app, it’s worth making sure it’ll be listed high on the search results in the App Store and Google Play Store – as this translates into more downloads = more chances to sell.

• What are the must-have features of a fitness app?

  It all depends on your business goals, the needs of your target audience, and even your app’s type, as some features may differ depending on whether you build a web or mobile application. This is why we follow these three steps: we pay a lot of attention to the initial analysis that helps us assess your users’ expectations, then we ensure that chosen features are well developed, and in the end – test all the functionalities with your audience to confirm that our assumptions were correct, and all the components were constructed properly. 

  But no matter what features you decide to implement in your app, there are a few important conditions the whole should meet: be intuitive, customizable, and fun to use, ensure security & flexibility, and build engagement.

• If I take part in a workshop, am I obliged to develop my fitness app with Neoteric?

  Once we hear about your idea and help you design a concept for its realization, we’ll surely love to move forward and be the ones who will bring your product to life. But no, you’re not obliged to use our fitness application development services after participating in a workshop.

• What if I run out of budget before my fitness app is ready?

  As a reliable fitness app development agency, we do our best to provide you with the most accurate estimates at the beginning of our cooperation. Also, we always keep you up to date with the progress of your fitness application development, so you have a clear view of your budget spending and can react accordingly.

  But what’s even more important, thanks to the fact that we work in agile, after each sprint we provide you with actual working elements. We develop features one by one, polishing each of them before starting with the next one. So if you happen to run out of budget before your app is complete, you won’t end up with several unfinished elements. In the worst-case scenario, you’ll still have a working app, just with fewer features of the lowest priority.

• How will the app be maintained?

  We provide various maintenance options that you can choose depending on your needs:

  • Detailed documentation about your fitness application, all the dashboards with logs and alerts, as well as e-mail notifications about potential issues for your team – so they have everything they need to maintain the app themselves.  
  • Connecting your app to special tools analyzing your app’s infrastructure and users’ behaviors that we can either react to or provide you with instructions to follow. 
  • Monthly feeds including reports about bugs and issues and their location, so your team can easily track and fix them.
  • Ongoing support for your application (for example, agreed numbers of hours a month or ongoing response to the tickets) which covers reacting to potential issues and fixing bugs. 
  • Full-time support of one of our developers and part-time Quality Assurance Engineer so they can continue developing your app – at a slower pace and with lower budget spending, but ensuring that your app keeps growing.

• I already have a software team. Can I still use your help?

  Of course! First of all, we can be an extension of your internal team, complementing it with lacking skills and expertise. Our support will also be a great option if your company is growing fast and you want to speed up your development but don’t have time to recruit fitness app developers on your own – in such a case, we’ll quickly gather a reliable team for you. Also, if your business’ needs for certain skills are not constant, we can be your reliable tech partner providing you with ongoing support in needed areas, so you don’t have to hire people you may not need anymore in a few months or so.

• Do I need a CTO or hire developers internally to work with a fitness mobile app development company?

  You don’t need to. If you have someone on board, that’s also fine, but the main idea of our tech partnership is that we enter into your project as your CTO, and we’re able to provide you with broad technical and business support, as well as help you to plan your project’s architecture, etc. On the other hand, if you have CTO or internal developers, we will cooperate with them.

• Why do I need a bespoke app? What’s the difference between a custom app vs. of-the-shelf?

  If you’re taking your first steps in the online fitness business, you want to validate your idea and figure out what value do you want to provide to your users, but in general, you’re not sure yet if that’s the right direction for you – reaching for off-the-shelf solutions may be a good idea. But if you already have that knowledge, you know that running an online fitness business is your way to go; you have your brand, loyal customers, etc., then a bespoke fitness app will be a much better (actually, the best) solution. It will perfectly reflect the standard of your services, respond to your users’ needs and expectations, and it will be much more flexible – making your business more scalable and easier to grow.
