Mobile applications: What is the process of creating mobile applications?
A mobile application, commonly referred to as an
application, is a type of the application software designed to run on the
mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Mobile applications frequently
provide users with services similar to those accessed on computers.
Applications are generally small individual modules with limited functionality.
This Use of Application Software was originally published by Apple Inc. and its
App Store, which provides thousands of apps for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
A mobile application may also be known as an application,
web application, online application, iPhone application, or smartphone
application.
Three types of apps
- · Native
- · Hybrid
- · Web
Native mobile apps:
Native mobile apps are designed to be "native" in
one platform, whether it's Apple's iOS platform, Google's Android platform, or
Windows Phone. A native platform can be useful as it tends to improve the user
experience. Since it has been specifically developed for the platform, it can
work more quickly and intuitively.
Mixed mobile apps:
These apps can be installed on devices just like the
original apps, but they work through web browsers. All hybrid applications are
developed through the HTML5 programming language. Although hybrid apps are not
as fast or reliable as native apps, they have more potential to simplify the
development process. Since you don't have to build and maintain apps for
separate platforms, your business can save time and resources. It is ideal for
applications that primarily serve content.
Web applications:
Responsive websites
switch to a different design when accessed from a mobile device. On the other
hand, adaptive web applications scale to fit different mobile device screen
sizes. For these applications, the design does not change. Web applications are
built using the most popular programming languages, but they cannot be used on
mobile devices or sold in any app store.
What is the process of creating the mobile app?
Once you have an idea of an app and decide that a mobile
app is the most appropriate approach, here is the typical process for creating
it:
·
Define
target users, supported platforms, and revenue model. Before you start
working on the mobile app, you need to clearly define the type of users who
might need such an app, the mobile platforms for which you intend to optimize
your mobile app, and the ways in which you plan to use the mobile app in order
to generate income.
·
Start
designing your app. Application design and functionality are usually
critical factors for its success. From the very early stages of app
development, you need to focus on creating a positive user experience and user
friendly interface.
·
Create a
prototype of the application. After defining your approach and working on
the main design of the application, you can create a basic prototype for your
mobile application. Doing so not only helps you identify areas that need
improvement but also enables you to pitch the app to potential investors.
·
Integrate
analytics tool. Depending on the exact nature and purpose of your mobile
application, you need to choose the appropriate analytics tool, which gives you
all relevant information regarding the application user base.
·
Test your
mobile app. Once you launch the app, you will need to select and find a
group of target customers who would like to test it for you. Based on their
feedback, you can get rid of some design flaws and a better understand of what
the end user should expect from this mobile application.
·
Release
the application. After you integrate feedback from your target customers
within the app, you can release them to the public.
·
Use
statistics to continuously improve your mobile app. After release, you
should collect data about how users interact with your app and make appropriate
changes to make them spend more time on the app and direct them toward certain
sections.
Benefits of mobile apps
Some of the most
important benefits of the mobile apps are:
· They can easily access the various device resources, such as the camera or GPS
· The fact that they need to get App Store approval makes them safer to use
· Some mobile apps can work even without an active internet connection
