How do I start? - Firstly gather all your ideas together, have a rough idea in your mind of how you want the app to look like, interface, functions etc.

Who do I contact? - I have plenty of app developers I can put you through to .

How much is it going to cost me? - Roughly around the 4 figures. Apps are not cheap .

Outsourcing to India is an option, won't be as good quality though .

Nearly everything can be done alhamdulilah. Plugins and lines of code for just about anything and everything these days.

It would be like learning a new language .

Yeah if interested, I can try and find you someone who is low cost too . And we can go on from there.

Heard of it. Does that allow you to make apps for Apple store too?

Best to have both in Apple app store and Google play store .

Outsource when you can, someone else can do the crying for you .

take some time to think about it.

Salam mu alikum
I have a little experience with all this cool stuff.
1) Does your idea require backend? Like a database of some sort or anything else. (Most good ideas do :P )
2) Is your idea to help people or for the money?
3) If its money then you would have to consider marketing as coding is 40% and marketing is 60%.
4) But it would cost a minimum of 1k.
5) Coding it yourself using native language...Java and Swift would be time consuming but it would be that way you like and you can update it in feature without hassle.
