Frequently Asked Questions on Social Media App Development
Got questions about building a social media app? Whether you’re curious about features, platforms, or development timelines, we’ve got all the answers you need.
The development time for a social media app depends on various factors, including complexity, features, and the platforms you target. Typically, a basic app can take around 3–6 months, while more advanced apps with real-time features, AI integration, and custom functionalities may take up to 12 months or more. The key to fast development is a clear vision and prioritizing features for an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) before adding more complex functionalities.
We prioritize end-to-end encryption for data transmission and secure authentication methods like OAuth and JWT to protect user login credentials. Regular penetration testing is performed to identify vulnerabilities, while data encryption is enforced both at rest and in transit. We also adhere to privacy laws such as GDPR to ensure that user data is handled with the utmost care.

This was one of my best experiences on elance. Ash was great to work with! They completed the project ahead of time and met all my expectations.
Great design, simple to use and easy to use backend. I am very happy with the outcome and would recommend them to anything reading this. Great communication and very professional! The reason elance works is because of people like this. I will 100% try to work with them in future projects!
Joe Sarkis
CEO
AleaIT did a great job on a fairly complicated website project. They were able to both listen to my ideas and provide suggestions of their own, and once direction was agreed upon they executed very well. No project is perfect, but where we had surprises or misunderstandings, they regularly “stepped up” to help the project get back on track, and more than once they approved scope changes that resulted in a better deliverable.
Frank,
CEO
The team at ALEA are willing go above and beyond to get the job done. They stick to budget and give timely information. Willing to advise on new ideas and improvements to the original brief; they have been refreshing to work with. Solid communication backed up with skills and expertise. We have worked together with a range of technologies including PHP, XML, html, and css, and eBay API. Highly Recommended.
