Music App Development Company

Yes. Xicom builds MVPs for music, radio, and podcast products with the core features that prove demand: playback, search, playlists, and basic accounts. Once listeners engage, we add subscriptions, offline downloads, recommendations, and social features without rebuilding the core streaming architecture.

Look for a team that has shipped live audio or streaming products and can explain how they handle buffering, DRM, and royalty reporting. Review their case studies, ask about real-device testing, and confirm they can support you after launch as your catalog and audience grow.

Cost depends on catalog size, streaming versus local playback, DRM and licensing requirements, the number of platforms, and features like recommendations or social listening. A podcast or radio MVP costs less than a full subscription streaming service. Share your requirements for a project-specific quote.

Timelines depend on scope. An MVP with core playback and accounts moves faster than a platform with DRM, offline downloads, multi-device sync, and royalty reporting. Content ingestion, licensing agreements, and app store review also affect the schedule. We share a detailed timeline after discovery.

We build for iOS, Android, and web, and extend apps to smart speakers, smart TVs, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto where your audience listens. Native or cross-platform development is chosen based on your audio performance needs. See our mobile app development services.

We use Widevine and FairPlay DRM for streams and offline downloads, encrypt content in storage and transit, apply territory restrictions, and secure APIs against scraping. A DMCA takedown workflow can be built into admin tools, so rights holder requests are handled quickly and logged.

Yes. We connect apps to content distributors, label feeds, metadata providers, payment systems, and existing content management tools through APIs. Where content arrives in batch files, we build ingestion pipelines that validate metadata and rights information before tracks go live.

We log every play with the detail rights holders need, including track, duration, territory, and listener type, and generate reports in formats labels, publishers, and rights organizations accept. Accurate reporting from day one avoids disputes that can put licensing agreements at risk.

Xicom offers three models: Fixed Price for clearly scoped launches, Time & Material for evolving streaming products, and Dedicated Team for ongoing development as your catalog and features grow. We help you choose the model that fits your stage and budget.

Yes. We monitor stream health, crash rates, and server load, release updates for new OS versions and devices, patch security issues, and tune recommendations and delivery as usage grows. Support can be ongoing or scoped around specific launches and seasonal traffic peaks.
