Mobile Applications: A Tool That Transforms Business and Brings Profit

  • 16.04.2025.

In a world we carry in our pockets, mobile applications have become an essential part of everyday life. Whether we’re ordering food, tracking business performance, or learning a foreign language – apps are all around us. But what exactly are mobile applications, how much do they really cost, and how can they become a tool for business success?

What are mobile applications?
Simply put, a mobile application is a software program developed for smartphones and tablets. It can function locally (offline) or be connected to the internet (online). Apps can be educational, entertaining, informative, or purely business-focused – the possibilities are endless.

How much does it cost to develop a mobile application?
The cost of app development depends on complexity, platform (iOS, Android), design, functionalities, and the development team itself. Here’s a simplified overview:

Type of Application Estimated Cost (EUR) Development Time
*Simple app (e.g. calculator, to-do list) €2,000 – €10,000 1 – 4 months
*Moderately complex (e.g. booking app) €10,000 – €50,000 4 – 8 months
*Complex app (e.g. social network, marketplace) €50,000 and up 8+ months

Costs include:

▪️ UI/UX design
▪️ Frontend (appearance and functions of the app)
▪️ Backend (servers, databases, authentication)
▪️ Testing and maintenance
▪️ Sometimes publishing costs for App Store / Google Play

How can apps help your business?
A mobile application is no longer a luxury – today it's a growth tool. Here are some ways an app can enhance your business processes:

▪️ Direct channel to customers – no intermediaries, ads, or noise
▪️ Business automation – reduces manual work, saves time
▪️ Improved user experience – fast access to information, 24/7 support
▪️ Data collection – user behavior, trends, analytics
▪️ Branding – the app works for you, even while you sleep

App ideas that can generate revenue
If you’re thinking about starting a startup or creating passive income, here are some trending ideas:

▪️ Marketplace app for local artisans (like “Etsy” for the region)
▪️ Equipment rental app (tools, boats, campers)
▪️ Freelance job app for the region (connecting clients and freelancers)
▪️ Personalized nutrition/training plans (AI recommendations + monthly subscription)
▪️ Digital destination guide app (with GPS, offline maps, recommendations)

Educational and business applications

Learning apps

▪️ Language learning (like Duolingo, but localized)
▪️ Exam prep (tailored to Croatian education system)
▪️ Learning programming, music, psychology, etc., through gamification

Business apps

▪️ ERP systems (Enterprise Resource Planning): manage production, inventory, invoicing – all in one
▪️ CRM systems (Customer Relationship Management): track clients, sales, and communication
▪️ Team collaboration apps (task manager, time tracking, document sharing)
▪️ E-invoicing and accounting apps – highly sought after by freelancers and small business owners

Mobile apps are no longer the “future” – they are the present. Whether you run a small business, an educational platform, or want to launch a digital product for a global market, an app can be your key tool for success.

The development cost is an investment, but when the idea is good – the return is significant.
