Tips for low budget
Choose a simple app for your action
smartphone apps can be very different in the way they function. And this is something that we can influence in the very first idea. An interesting app does not need a lot of functions as long as the basic idea is appealing. The simpler the app is in functions the cheaper it will be in development. Especially difficult in programming are apps that use geotracking (need to know where the phone is), apps that use the camera of the smartphone, apps that need to be connected to some kind of online service to work properly etc.
Easy apps only need to understand if a finger is pointed at a screen or not and that is it. With this function there are already a lot of ideas that can be implemented. Like in our case a little puzzle game.
Ask IT students for programming
There are a lot of IT students who are very capable and interested in programming of such an app for smartphones. Very often they need to do gather some experience in practical work during their studies and this can be an option for them. So they win and we as an NGO win as well with creative works that are done.
