Modern day mobile devices come with a variety of features such as internet browsing, email support with sending attachments, push notifications, high quality graphic support, large touch screen, wireless services, high quality camera and lots of others. Developers can use these features to devise distinctive applications. They can mix various elements to create great software and solutions.
However, there are some other things that can virtually shape the success or failure of a mobile application. But, if you as a developer are not very much sure what do, or how to begin a project, this article gives the most important tips to do so. Here we go-
The Platform
Choosing a platform is a crucial decision. It is necessary because technologies, tools, and implementation methods vary from platform to platform. If you want to create an application for more than one platform, you either need to develop separate codes, or port one to others. It is because different mobile operating systems have different features and developers need to approach them in a specific manner. For example, iPhone's Bluetooth only supports other iPhone devices. It does not support Android or Windows Phone powered smart phones.
Client Base
The client-base you are targeting also influences your project. For example, iPhone is an expensive smart phone and mostly owned by those users who also own credit cards. If you create a paid app for iPhone and other iOS powered devices, there are possibilities that many users would pay for it. But, if you create the same app for Android, there are chances that few people would buy it. Its reason is that Android devices may also be owned by those users who cannot afford credit cards.
Project Budget
Project budget and development also influence a project. With an appropriate budget, the developer would be able to use technologies in desired way. Factors like app-type, development process, designing cost, programming cost, implementation cost, multiple-platform compatibility, etc. decide the budge of a project.
Timeframe
According to a survey, a trained developer can take around 18 weeks to design, develop and implement a fully functional app. During this period, he can complete both front-end and back-end of an application. You should also set a timeframe in which the project is supposed to end. Developers can save a lot of resources by taking right decisions for budget and time spent on a project.
