The Next Growing Technology-Mobile Application Development

As the demand for iPhone, ipad, Android, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile applications warms up, more and more companies are diverting most of their focus and invest their money towards that "next big mobile application idea". The five most important opinions of mobile application development mentioned below.

Business Case: If you have a good idea that could make in to a good mobile app, you should first research if another application on similar / same idea already exist. Determine how you can distinguish and renovate your idea. Understand your plan to develop Mobile app if there is a need for the application. Besides validating your concept, assess if developing that application is a suitable for your business plans/strategies, direction, and if you will be able to regain investment in to developing this application.

 Target Audience: Whether you are developing mobile application for your business use, usage by other businesses or usage by individual consumers, you should have a better understanding between your application and your target audience. That will support making design and technology decisions for your application. If you are targeting worldwide audience, you may also have to consider creating your mobile application polyglot.

Technology Selection: With mobile client applications, you can’t develop a single application that supports all of the mobile platforms. Every mobile platform is different and run only applications that are developed on the particular technologies. So if you develop an iPhone application, this application can’t support/run the same application on Blackberry, Android or Windows Mobile platforms. That is why it is necessary that before developing an application, you select a suitable mobile platform for your application. If you choose same platform for multiple mobile applications, make sure that you design your application properly to reduce initial and continuing development efforts and costs. Most importantly, determine if you really want to develop a mobile client application which are platform specific or a mobile web application which are more universal and could run on all smart phones.

Timing: When there are many companies trying to tap in to the growing mobile applications market, it is critical that you move onward with your mobile development project time to time. Otherwise, there are chances that other developer may beat you in launching an application with same concept and could quickly tap in to your potential client base. When it comes to launching a mobile app, right timing is important for maximizing return on investment.

Pricing: Just like any other item/product, you need to verify that price for your mobile application is right. Research on the cost of other similar applications, search out how valuable is your application going to be for consumers, and figure out your over-all cost of ownership for building, launching and maintaining your application. 

Bonus Point: Marketing - After launching your application, it is essential to advertise it and increase its visibility to your target audience. Marketing your application on social media sites, search engines and offering it on discount for a short period of time should help increase its consumer base.
