Class it up with iOS App Maintenance Services

On average, more than 30,000 apps are released on the App Store every month. The App Store today has a strength of about 4.4 million applications, all competing for the same userbase. With such a high degree of competition, it's become even more crucial to keep your applications fresh and shining at all times to rank top on the charts. or else you miss out on a majority of potential users (the numbers are in millions).

It's almost impossible to develop a flawless iOS application in the first go. As and when the iPhone users start exploring the application, the app gets exposed to real-time use cases. These include use cases that may not have come across when the final build was getting tested, and hence, unexpected issues may arise that need fixing. Let's say the situation is so critical to the use case in the context that the user may feel frustrated with the outcome and may drop out immediately, never to return to the application again. Well, that's haunting. Isn't it?

As they say, "To err is human, to fix, divine." We engage in fixing such issues for your iPhone users, urgent or not, through our iOS App Maintenance Services.

Why go for iOS App
Maintenance?

Because change is the only constant... even for iOS applications. Within a few months of the release date, a few parameters concerning your application may change. These include:

  • Operating System

    iOS versions are updated every year and applications need to match the pace to be compatible.

  • Hardware

    As the market sees the rise of new iPhone versions every year, apps that were built for older versions may not behave as expected on the newer ones.

  • Programming Languages

    Apps must also be updated as the underlying programming languages change; eg: Objective C to Swift

  • Styles and Designs

    From skeuomorphic to flat design, the iOS app market has seen a shift in design philosophies over the decades.

  • Libraries

    Most applications use third party integrations that involves a certain degree of dependency. Your app must be updated based on their changes too.

  • Usage Pattern

    As your application grows in the market, so will the maturity of your target user group. Your app must reflect the freshness they are expecting.

  • Infrastructure

    If the hosting infrastructure changes (self-hosted to AWS), your app will need updating.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is iOS app maintenance?

After getting built and tested and released for use by the customers it requires regular monitoring so that changing customer expectations can be captured and analyzed. Your product must reflect the latest technology and design trends and must also make available what your customers are looking for. You can only get that estimate after you've analyzed the performance of the already released app. iOS app maintenance service take care of your growth as a product. Apps that are maintained regularly never fail to surprise the audience with a performance that’s beyond their expectations.

  3. When you're opting for maintaining your iOS application, you'd consider a lot of parameters like servers, push notifications, payment gateways, etc. You get valuable insight when you monitor the performance of your application daily, monthly, or yearly. IOS app maintenance typically needs additional cost to be budgeted, usually 15-20% of the overall development cost. The expense also depends on how many iOS versions are you maintaining it for. The more the number, the greater the cost. On average, you can set aside 20% of the initial development cost for iOS app maintenance.

  4. Hosting an application may cost you anywhere between $70 to $320 based on various factors like the amount of information you make available to your users. For example, media content hosting costs you more than textual content. These factors vary from application to application. Serving data is different from storing data, which incurs additional hosting costs. Another factor that is worth considering is the server cost and the volume of your user data. With Naskay iOS app maintenance services, you don't need to worry about that.
