Performance, unique features, and add-ons are three important aspects to the success of any mobile app. But when it comes to staying ahead of your competition, there is always a fourth spoke in the wheel of Android Mobile App Development, which is the UI; or User Interface. Your app’s UI is what your users get to see and experience. That’s why it becomes important that your every app’s features, new and old, stay in close connection consideration when you are defining your re-defining the UI. Many good apps have failed while the bad ones have succeeded because of the bad or good calls made when deciding for the quality of the interface.

That’s why it becomes important that you know a good deal about UI design before you approach the Best Android App Development Company. So let us have a look at 5 tips that you should keep in mind when designing your mobile apps front end.

1. Clarity is the Key

Providing a zillion features in your app is not a bad practice, but flooding your users’ screen in a fashion that makes it hard to choose or click on any of them can ruin your apps UI. When you have an app that has many things to offer to your users, for e.g. an educational app, then it’s best to use the “Narrow down” approach. In this, you start by asking questions that help you narrow down on features that your users like the most. And in the end, you serve them with only a handful of features, thus keeping their screen clean and useful.

2. Use What’s Popular. Or at least What’s Common

It’s good to edgy and creative during the Android mobile app development process. But forgetting the standards might make your efforts go down the drain. That’s why it is better to stick with a simple “Buy Now” to imply that a click on a particular button would take a user on the sales page than a confusing and ambiguous “Are You Interested?”.

3. Choose the Standard Font Type and Size

Choosing the right style and size of fonts is pretty important. Fonts that look too funny, like Comic Sans, or too “Classy”, like Algerian or Times New Roman, sometimes miss the point of content. Likewise, fonts that are too large, like 18px or 20px, spoil the fun of reading. A rule of thumb, when choosing the font style consider Arial or Calibri. And when it comes to font size try staying well within the range of 16px to 13px.

4. Conduct Beta Tests

Finally, when your app is up and ready, it’s time to conduct beta tests. No matter how good and sleek your app looks and works, it’s always a good idea to give to a small pool of users first. Not only the pool would help you improve your app’s UX and UI, but they will also pinpoint performance related issues; if there are any.
