To determine which platform fits your business needs the best, it is essential to consider who you are building your app for. Identify what target audience will your user base represent; their age, gender, location. Through determining the answers to these questions, you can figure out if iOS or Android best suits your business needs. This will save you significant time and money in the long run.
Android OS operates on many different screen sizes, which makes development more time consuming and costly. iOS runs on a limited amount of screen sizes, making this a more inexpensive and time-saving platform. However, app complexity is still a large determining factor of development costs on both platforms. In addition to differing development costs, the cost to launch apps on the Google play store and the Apple App Store vary considerably. The google play store charges a one-time registration fee of $25, while the App store charges an annual fee of $99.
If your target audience is higher-income individuals from developed countries, iOS is your best choice. Also, iOS is a good fit if you are searching to generate a higher revenue per user, looking for a less complicated and more timely development process, or value user data security and privacy. Additionally, because the development cost for iOS development is lower and earnings are higher, iOS is recommended for start-ups or companies with lower starting capital. However, suppose your target audience is lower-income individuals across the world and you are looking for a quick release, a customizable development experience, and are searching to connect with a broad audience. In that case, Android is the best platform for you.
