Here’s the story,I have dumped close to 150K into a reputable app developer to help me make my app (it’s been close to 1.5 years in development).There’s one or two major things left (I have to convert a Shopify store to use the tokens earned in my app-essentially a dropship gift shop), and some basic video chat features (it’s partly a social app).The major issues I’m having is that I personally believe I’m being price gouged by the design team at this point. Very basic things (and granted I am not a programmer), are requiring 20-40 hours of work at a time, when the initial quote would have similar items for 3-5 hours.The other issue I’m having, is that the design teams attention to detail is HORRIFIC. The basic layout and functionality is there, but every time a new update comes out, it’s like nobody ever tested it. Things I notice within 5 minutes of using the app (for example the use of military time, or basic common sense errors), are not picked up on. For 1.5 years I feel as I’ve just been a thorn in their side.I have spent essentially all my spare cash building this app, so I was wondering if you guys had any experience with being at this point in development. Is it best to bring on someone who codes who is as passionate as I am? The other tricky part, is I pretty much have no money to pay either, so where do you find people who would work for equity?Someone suggested just accelerators and incubators and maybe that’s the best option. But I would love to just have someone else on the team !Sorry if this just sounds like venting. Just so frustrating to basically put everything you have into something, and not have the developers recognize basic flaws. see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
