A really, really good app $100,000 (in my dreams) App created quickly, one or two days ($200+) hopefully they'll come back for more. Every thing else in between. Ask your self how much time will it take, apply rate, then either double or triple it. Fred

@ALBBCN: My brother is doing app dev as freelance. His costs are between $2,500.00 and $5,000.00 depending on complexity. The way he does it is that the going rate around here is around $75.00/h. So he takes $75.00/h x approx time it will take to dev. (This is in Canadian funds) Word of advice, don't cheap out, because the client will expect everything for free next time around.

@ALBBCN I agree, web design as well has turned into what you are saying as well. I wish you luck and hope it turns out well for you:)
