App stores that are targeting the wide class of people

by Amit Sharma Small Business

The entire telecom industry was shaken up in mid-2008 when Apple launched the Apple Store.  Through the use of the applications or more commonly what is called the App, people were able to take the telephone user experience to new levels of utility.  The launch of the Apple Store did bring greater utility to specifically the users of the Apple phone.  Soon, other brands of phone manufacturers with the differing operating systems brought out their own versions of the app store and life was never the same again.  


There has not been something more disruptive to society than the introduction of the smartphone, in the least possible time.  As the competition heated up, the smartphones too became cheaper and hence more affordable to the common user.  Thus technology has once again come out as a great leveler in society.  How people shopped, read newspapers, booked train tickets, paid the children’s school fees, all came to be defined by the use of the smartphone.  As the app stores grew in size and the options available to each smartphone user increased, there came a need to launch an app for every serious platform that came into being.

 

The role of demo versions


Unlike websites, the better performing 9Apps download are available with a demo version of the actual fully fledged product. This helps the potential customer to have a feel of what is on offer before committing to the actual thing.  The use of a demo version is of great help to app developers as unlike the websites, people rarely have a grouse that they have been taken for a ride.  It is the usual practice to launch an app as a demo version to try and test out the market for the product among the target users. 


Feedback and how important it is


The feedback from the users of a 9Apps Store is very important.  It is the feedback from new launches that help with the further refinement and better delivery of products.  It would be foolhardy to expect the app to perform in peak condition from launch onwards.  In most cases, it is the feedback that helps bring about better user experiences later on.
