Freelancer bid proposal samples for mobile app development

Original mobile app bid samples for Freelancer.com: a new app MVP, a bug fix and an app store release, with tips for writing technical bids.

App projects are larger and riskier for clients, so they look for a clear plan and proof that you have shipped apps before. Keep the first bid short and offer a scoped first milestone; details can follow in the chat.

Sample 1: MVP app (plan and milestones)

Hi [client name],

An MVP of your [app idea] for [iOS / Android / both] using [framework], with [two or three core features from the brief].

1. Screens and user flow as clickable wireframes for your approval.
2. Core features with a test build you can install on your phone.
3. Bug fixes from your testing and help publishing to the app store(s).

Apps I have shipped: [real store links].

Which feature matters most for your first users? I would build that one first.

[Your name]

Sample 2: Crash fix (technical)

Hi [client name],

A crash on [Android / iOS] after [the action from the brief] usually shows up clearly in the crash log. My steps:
- Reproduce it on a device or emulator with your current build.
- Read the stack trace and fix the cause, not just the symptom.
- Test the fix on [versions], then send you a build to confirm.

I have worked with [framework] for [years] years. Can you share the repository or the crash report?

[Your name]

Sample 3: App store release (concise)

Hi [client name],

You have a finished app and need it published on [Google Play / the App Store]. I will prepare the store listing, screenshots in the required sizes, the privacy details the store asks for, and handle the review process, including any changes the reviewers request.

I have published [number] apps, for example [store link].

Do you already have a developer account?

What to change before you send it

  • Link apps you really published; store links are the strongest proof.
  • Suggest building the most important feature first.
  • Mention testing on real devices and versions.
  • Keep the first bid short. Offer to send a detailed plan after the client replies.
  • Replace every part in [brackets] with your real details, and cut anything that does not apply to this project.
