OTRebirth 80k for apps? Are you alright? I charge a minimum of 100k for ordinary web design(with no coding) talk more of apps. And I still think that is small compared to what my colleagues charge. @emmatdayo the average budget should be 180k and above for a basic android app and 250+ for a basic ios app . App is not beans, it’s not a website that you can build and leave for 1 year and still meet it there, functionalities change, apis change, OS configurations change and you have to be ready to pay management fee per month so your developer can monitor and update the app where needed. Any developer that charges you 80k will run away with your money and build crap for you.
Let me be honest with you, app development (including software and web development generally) takes time and patience. If you want a developer to do a good job for you, pay good money. Don’t look for cheap developers, they will do your work once and run away from you when problem comes, infact there are developers that’ll offer to do it for 40k self if you want something cheaper. But remember the lesser the cost , the lesser the commitment and seriousness attached to work.
Lastly, Cheap things are not good and good things are not cheap.
