As you already know, at vivus.tech we help client throughout the process developing application projects that enhance our skills and knowledge. Here are some points we for deliver custom application as per client need.
- Know the mobile application development market
The most important thing for a mobile application development professional is to know what is going on around him. Whether it is a development company with a large team or a freelance developer, it is essential to know the application development sector to be up to date, stay competitive and be able to offer an updated and innovative product. Whether in technology, design or mobile marketing, not being up to date can be fatal for your business.
Even in design and mobile marketing you have to be up to date. Even if you are only responsible for mobile application development, it is recommended to know the trends of other disciplines related to the mobile applications sector. It may be enough to follow trends in mobile application development that resembles your own apps.
This means that if you are an Android developer, it is recommended that you know the application development sector for Android at your fingertips. You will need to know what are the new application design trends , what types of designs are working well, how to program the application to optimize it for mobile marketing strategies and even start mobile application development with head the type of business model that the application will have in order to program and design based on it.
- be faithful to design trends but… differentiate you!
This is exactly it. You must be attentive to what is done in terms of application design. Lately, we are starting to see usable designs that mix intuitive designs with skeuomorphism. These are confronted with the flat design, familiar and well known by professionals in the development of mobile applications, and which continues to have a lot of influence in mobile applications. But the most important thing is that, even if you can draw inspiration from successful designs, you have to differentiate yourself. Stand out! In this way, users will be able to see your application as innovative, different and bringing something new.
- Security, a highly valued term in the field of application development
We have very concrete data on the subject of security in companies and the development of mobile applications. And what is certain is that it is not given sufficient importance, which causes deficiencies in application security.
An IBM study indicates that 50% of companies spend no part of their budget on security when developing mobile applications. On the other hand, 40% of companies do not review the code of their applications and do not look for security breaches.
In general, half of the companies do not even review half of the applications they create and 33% of them never check the security or the errors that have occurred. This translates into 1000 million personal data registers exposed to cyber attacks in 2014 alone.
This is why developers and entrepreneurs must pay attention to security and establish a development of mobile applications so that they are not likely to be pirated and that the information of our customers or users is not exploited. In addition, it is one of the criteria most valued by users of mobile applications. The development of secure mobile applications will always be better than that of an application that can be easily hacked. If an app is private, users should be safe and know that their data and personal information is in good hands.
- Testing - Eliminate Errors!
Before submitting a programming job, it is important to test it, regardless of whether it is a web page, a computer program, or an application. Being a good application developer means being willing to do a perfect job: this is one of the keys to success for the developer.
We, as experts in mobile application development, inform you that testing your application yourself is not enough. It is better to rely on another developer who can test it or have another professional opinion which gives feedback on your development of mobile applications.
Likewise, try to get an opinion from someone outside the world of application development, such as a user, in order to have an opinion that is not limited to work. Is the application usable? Are there any errors? It is only after this process that the work can be returned to the end customer.
- Provide continuous service
A good way to make a good impression on your client is to offer them continuous service for your punctual work. That is to say to offer the maintenance of the functioning of the application that you have created, and this, in the long term. Mobile app development is not enough. In fact, clients give enormous importance to being fully involved in their project. In addition, it will bring you great benefits. You will receive a fixed salary for maintenance and if you have done a good job of mobile application development, you will only have to make small changes over time. It is an ideal measure to retain customers and will create a good image for other potential customers.
