This stage envisions ideas and goal setting for your future app. All design concepts, features, system requirements and development tools are finalized, and mockup designs and wireframes are created at this stage.
This phase includes prototyping and the actual app development and UI/UX design, real-time analysis and problem solving. If you choose to build your app for, say, iOS first, and then decide to develop its Android version, you should double your TTM, as developing app for a different platform is almost like developing it from scratch. So, expect your app development to span to 16 - 20 weeks if you want to target your app at two platforms. Note that complex mobile games and solutions can take over 6 months in development alone!
In case of Android development, sometimes it's just a matter of finding different Android devices to test your app on. With a huge market segmentation and around 20,000 distinct Android running devices, it may not be that easy to find at least hundred gadgets to see how your app is working and looking like on them. So, as you see, a lot of factors influence the timeframe of your app's testing and quality assurance.
This stage includes creation of the app's landing page, icon, description, meta tags and relevant marketing collateral that can take up to 2 weeks. Additionally, there's a waiting time for getting app store's approval to publish your app. For instance, Apple takes up to 2 weeks to complete its app approval procedure.
So, as we can see, TTM for an average native mobile app or game is 14-20 weeks. Some of the ways to shorten it are:
