How To Make Successful Mobile App

steps for successful mobile app development

Making an app is a easy part now a days , so can easily approach mobile app development company , who can easily deliver you the good looking app that work’s perfectly . But unfortunately , even a awesome looking app sometimes does not get the attention as desired .

So if you don’t want to loose the opportunity of getting notices in app stores , make sure to follow few suggestions which are given below to make your new app notices and featured in app stores .

START AT THE BEGINNING

Many apps requires sign up/sign in as mandatory process , like the one in e-commerce app , which user do have to sign up , even before getting the first glimpse of the app  . Although signing in the application is a very simple process , some pitfalls need to be avoided for having a happy customer experience .
“Never test the patience of the mobile device user ” should be the first and foremost aim of yours .If users finds any difficulty in using your app , or is not able to access it , they will surely delete it and forget forever .It can be avoided by giving them an opportunity to sign up by a social media platform , so that they can easily sign up and you will get the information as required by you of a user .

MARKETING

It may sound obvious but marketing is the most important and mandatory step .In an excitement that you are ready to launch the app  , always remember other need to learn about it .

Marketing of the app should start even before the launch of the product , by creating advertisement on social media , tech blogs and more . It may create excitement among user for eagerly waiting for your app , thus increasing the number of downloads once your app has been launched .

Always keep in mind , to target the targeted user as it is obvious that all the people in the vicinity may not be interested in your app .So target marketing is all you have to do , and should put your efforts accordingly .

There are many other ways for marketing your app , for which you can hire some agency to do a work for you ( obviously if you have budget for it )  .

The most important thing is ” spread words to right people ”

SPREADING THE WORD

The key platform to generate users for your application is sending invites . In the age of social networking  , if people find  it interesting and useful they will send invites to their friends and family , they will post about it on social platform . Even the biggest players in the market say Google , is also sending invites to begin promotion of their new apps/features  .

Giving user a reason to send invites is a great way to fast scale your invites .Provide them with some kind of incentive  , unlock some features in app or moving them to next level in app are some of the measures which can be followed .

MAKE IT SIMPLE

The app should be as user friendly and easy to use as it can . Your user interface should be organised and easy to use . If user can’t figure out how to access features or feel inconvenienced while using the app , your app may be in danger . Making easy and guidable videos and gestures in the app itself , would work to tackle up the situation .
You have to work with designer and developer , to get the best user interface . Highlighting the most important feature of your app on the very first move is the best option to highlight your features . Organizing the different features in different category helps user to browse every features , rather than putting all the feature at single place .
Always keep in mind , their are certain places on device’s screen that are more accessible than other due to the way people hold them . Certain location on phones may be hard to reach and certain gestures are hard to perform .Keeping this in mind , try to optimize your app .
Finally keeps your ear open to listen to designer and developer , as they are the experts who are use to in app industry and is making the app every now and then . So they can provide you good insight of what works and what does not . Even if you are disagreed with them  , think twice before disregarding them .
