Both success rates as well as failure rates in mobile application development industries have its own traits. So, it is often said that if you have a majority side of winning factors in developing your applications, you have a better chances than others.

If we talk in terms of Android or iOS app developers, then its a fact that you just can't restrict yourself to a set of definite skill set and its related concepts, as the world of mobile application is changing faster every now and then than we think it is and any skill set that does not have any value unless it knows how to acquire the pace with every changes.


Here below, various mobile app success factors are being introduced that every developer must know:-

Here and Now

It's all about a user's concern with the momentary data terms with respect to using various applications. For example, while developing a news application, its very common to notice every updates related to worlwide news that are happening on particular moment. It would be more interesting to access regular headlines.

Keep your apps simple and easy to use

Simplicity while developing any mobile application diverts your chances of getting noticed more than one. A simple application makes a user spend more time than any other applications that makes it harder to navigate and find ways towards success. Once users find your recently developed application to be unnecessarily clumsy and poor in terms of navigation process, then they would just delete them or will simply avoid it from the mobile home screen and will refer another ways to access application on the mobile app store. It's often noticed that users hardly show patience to access your mobile applications. So simplicity is always welcome that plays a significant role for a faster clutter free experience.


Staying updated

Always keep this in mind that this is one of the most important success factors that every app developer should consider. Your developed application must come with latest updates and alerts relevant to present happenings.

Obviously it wont be of that help. So in such context, even additional information on ticket booking process or for local sightseeing can be useful and relevant. Offering relevant content in terms of context of user’s searching process is the key to make it popular and interesting.

Different versions for all OS

If a user considers converting their old installed web page into a mobile apps with other mobile friendly changes in design and functionality, it won’t lead to any positive success rate. Similarly making a mobile application and then serving it for all mobile platforms with advance technical changes, is like offering everyone the same food in the same manner irrespective of user's preference and their food habit. While developing a mobile application, focusing at the top tier mobile applications that enjoys the biggest share of user, you will notice almost every one of them offer different apps for various platforms. An app development especially developed for IOS can access a huge advantage of the platform to the fullest by supporting more profound features and functionalities than a ‘one-for-all’ app version.

Add value and information frequently

In this too competitive, too fast and too active apps world you cannot expect getting users while standing still with your contents for days and weeks. More frequently you can come up with new and relevant contents, better it is for you. Make users accustom to your value with updated information and content every now and then. All popular apps with huge mass following update themselves in every minute and never cease to come with some new set of data every time you visit them. They look new every moment and that is the key to their success.

For many developers like you. This is the most common success factor that almost every application by now should take these steps for developing a mobile application on serious note.

Clear and rapid call action

Each and every mobile app page that are developed regularly should have a crystal clear alternative to enable user direct to where he or she actually wants to fit in or what he wants to have. This typical element while developing any mobile application is known as ‘call-to-action that is always considered to be an indispensable step to be successful for any application.

Rich user experience

Mobile sets, particularly if we talk about smartphones lets us perform lotof things with very few simple commands that falls under the category of playing videos, browsing images, zooming in and out, playing audio, posting comments, engaging in voice chat and many other such related activities. Now what happens is thatif your developed application gets lots of appreciation by enabling users utilize more and more features that are often required by them, they will eventually find those apps brilliant. Engaging users through the interactive features of your app can find you immense popularity.

Eye-striking graphic design
