XMPP is the open XML technology for real-time communication in a chat app. Apart from XMPP one must need a variety of different technologies that can be integrated with XMPP to create an elegant and high-performing chat app.
It is important to communicate with the professional developers your detailed requirements so that they can lay out a detailed development plan, feature requirements, technology to be used, and resources required for developing a chat app.
The most complex part of developing a chat app is to decide on its monetization strategy. You might already be using a chat app, so you might be aware of the features a chat app has, so let’s discuss the monetization strategy a chat app can look into.
Monetization Strategy for a chat app
A chat app can be monetized in various ways but the most common ones are explained below
1. Subscription Fee
The subscription model is a monthly or yearly subscription of chat applications where a user pays based on the flexibility one can offer in the payment method. Sometimes app offers two versions of the application, a free version with limitations or a paid version with advanced features.
So based on your app design and functionality you can choose whether to offer a free version with limitations to users or only have one paid subscription plan. If you can offer different levels of advanced features based on usage then you can choose to offer multiple paid plans to the users.
2. Advertising Model
The least popular monetization model in a chat app is the advertising model. The advertising during a chat with another user is kind of irritating and that might lead a user to leave the app and move on to another application.
The advertising model can be merged with paid subscription model by using advertising to generate revenue from free users.
3. In-App Purchases
In-app purchases are a kind of paid subscription model but it does not have a flat fee instead it focuses on enticing the user to purchase a particular feature or any other part of the app.
The purchases made in a particular app can yield to the analysis of the importance or popularity of features among users.
This is just the first step of starting the app development process, the next steps usually include idea generation for features in app, technology stack decision, and resource gatherings.
Hope the answer guides you on a successful path to developing an android chat app
