Hi there,
I understand that you could not get this App done but now you have explained the whole requirements very well, so technically there are no hurdles or issues but since you want both iPhone & Android Apps, so there is no way that it can be done in US $1,500, I mean this is very unrealistic budget. My main concern is that our team estimate is way higher than US $1,500, so not sure if you can be flexible in it. No doubt, there are many bids within this budget range, as every bidder want to get this project, because on Freelancer website, whatever budget you will select to post the project, mostly people will bid within that budget range, no matter what actual working hours or cost it takes to develop. So, if you're flexible in your budget, we can surely talk about it more in detail, if not, then I totally understand and I wish you good luck.
Please ignore the bid amount, as our estimate is high & I would like to discuss.
Look forward to hearing from you & start further discussion thru' private chat.
Regards,
YK
