Firstly, sorry for the broad question. I know nothing about iphone app development, other than what a front end user sees so I am hoping to get a general idea of the time and cost of this type or project so I can decide whether to even consider going ahead. I would like to develop a city guide app. Basically the key functions will be: - Search for restaurants, nightlife, events, cinemas, hotels, activities and where the actual listing page shows a map for the location plus phone, address and description. - Newsroll with recent articles from my website. - Events Calendar where events can be added to iphone calendar. - Banner and contextual Advertising. - The ability to link with my website so that events, news and other listings (restaurants etc) are updated when I update my website. I have seen http://www.nycway.com/ which is very comprehensive version of what I am hoping to achieve. My questions are as follows: - What sort of budget should I estimate for this? What do iphone app developers usually charge? hourly/fixed price? - How long would this take to develop? - What considerations do I have take into account when developing my website so that it can work alongside this app? I plan on developing the website in Wordpress. Thanks in advance!
I don't know wether it's right, but i would be an iphone user, this would be useful for me, thank you
