Mobile apps are everywhere. From shopping to banking, fitness to food delivery—apps make our lives easier. So, if you’re a business owner or entrepreneur, building a mobile app is a smart step. But here’s something important to know:
Choosing the wrong app development company can cost you time, money, and customers.
At Techeights, we’ve seen clients come to us after bad experiences with other developers. That’s why we want to help you avoid common mistakes people make when hiring an app development company.
Let’s explore the top 5 mistakes and how you can avoid them.
Mistake 1: Not Checking the Company’s Past Work
Would you buy a car without seeing it or test-driving it? Probably not.
In the same way, you shouldn’t hire an app development company without looking at their past work. Many people just go by the company’s website or a few reviews. But real work speaks louder than words.
What to Do Instead:
- Ask for a portfolio of apps they’ve developed.
- Check if the apps are live on the App Store or Google Play.
- Download and use those apps yourself. Look for design, speed, features, and ease of use.
- Ask if they’ve worked on apps similar to your idea.
At Techeights, we proudly showcase our projects so clients know what to expect.
Mistake 2: Ignoring the Tech Team Behind the Company
Sometimes, people get impressed by the company’s fancy branding or marketing, but forget to ask about the actual developers and designers who will build the app.
A company is only as good as the team working on your project.
What to Do Instead:
- Ask who will be on your project: developers, designers, testers, project managers.
- Find out how experienced they are.
- Check if they’re in-house or outsourced to freelancers.
- Schedule a call or video meeting with the team if possible.
At Techeights, we introduce our clients to the team and maintain full transparency throughout the process.
Mistake 3: Not Being Clear About the Process
Some companies give vague answers like, “We’ll take care of it,” or “Don’t worry, we’ll handle everything.” That sounds nice—but it can lead to confusion, delays, or extra costs later.
You must know exactly how the app development process works.
What to Do Instead:
- Ask for a step-by-step process from idea to app launch.
- Understand how long each step takes.
- Know what is included (design, development, testing, maintenance).
- Get clarity on timelines and milestones.
- Request regular updates during development.
Techeights follows a proven development process and keeps our clients in the loop at every stage.
Mistake 4: Choosing the Cheapest Option
It’s tempting to go with the company that offers the lowest price. After all, we all want to save money. But when it comes to app development, cheap often means poor quality.
Low-cost developers may cut corners, skip testing, or use low-quality code. This can result in:
- Bugs and crashes
- Slow performance
- Poor user experience
- Apps getting rejected by the App Store or Google Play
What to Do Instead:
- Don’t just compare price—compare value.
- Ask what’s included in the price.
- Understand how the company handles testing, updates, and support.
- Remember: A well-built app pays off in the long run.
At Techeights, we offer fair pricing without compromising on quality. We believe in long-term partnerships, not short-term savings.
Mistake 5: Forgetting About Post-Launch Support
Building an app is not a one-time task. Once your app is live, you’ll need:
- Bug fixes
- Updates
- New features
- Help with App Store submissions
- User feedback support
Many companies don’t provide post-launch support—or they charge high fees later. That leaves clients frustrated and stuck.
What to Do Instead:
- Ask clearly about post-launch support and costs.
- Check if they provide maintenance plans.
- Ask how fast they respond to issues or bugs.
- Look for companies that offer long-term help, not just project delivery.
Techeights offers reliable post-launch support so you never feel alone after your app goes live.
Bonus Tip: Choose a Company That Understands Your Business
A good app development company doesn’t just write code. They understand your business, your customers, and your goals. They help shape your app idea into something valuable.
That’s what we do at Techeights. We listen first, then build.
