Create Android or iOS app for my hosting forum?
 

I would like to know if there are some ways to create Android or iOS app for my hosting forum? and submit them to Apps store of Apple or Google play so everyone can download, install and use my forum on that app?

Do I need to hire someone to create this or there is a tool to do that?

Thanks in advance.

You can use TapaTalk.
If you're talking about your own app that you own, that will be a significant amount of work (Probably a couple $1000)

You are right, I am talking about my own app to submit on Android and iOS store.
$1000 for both Android or iOS app? or just one?

Where to do this?

It has to be custom made for each operating system. So 1 for Android and 1 for iOS, it will probably cost several $1000 to $5k-$10k for each. That is, custom made from scratch with all of vBulletin's functionality.

Of course you can outsource it to like India to drastically lower costs but don't forget that you get what you pay for.

You can try and create a request at upwork.com or freelancer.com.

Thanks for letting me know these info!

With price around $5k-$10k then I can do this in the future when I have a budget for it.

I don't think you need a complete app for a forum, maybe all you need is a better mobile skin, and make a shortcut to the web in your phone.

If you really need an app, I would suggest you to look for other forum softwares that have better support for mobile.
