But you might also question if you <em>really<\/em> need to get into mobile app development.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s an answer to that question: Since the <a href=\"https:\/\/venturebeat.com\/mobile\/5-billion-people-now-have-a-mobile-phone-connection-according-to-gsma-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">number of mobile users surpassed the 5 billion point in 2017<\/a>, a mobile app can be a great way to reach out to your customers. More than likely you\u2019re on the right path, but how do you make the first step to mobile development?<\/p>\n<h2>The Businesses that Need to Consider Mobile App Development<\/h2>\n<p>It goes without saying that some businesses will probably never need to develop a mobile application. But <em>most<\/em> industries will stand to gain from such a solution, as it helps to increase customer loyalty and sales. These are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Entertainment \u2013\u00a0table reservations, booking tickets, city maps<\/li>\n<li>Beauty salons \u2013 online appointments, price calculators<\/li>\n<li>Tourism \u2013 interactive maps, services for booking tickets and accommodations<\/li>\n<li>Medicine \u2013 booking medical appointments, lists of services and pricing, live support<\/li>\n<li>Food \u2013 discounts, loyalty programs, delivery<\/li>\n<li>Sports \u2013 schedules, reviews, online appointments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Anyway, as you know, never base your business decisions on guesses! Mind the revenue, and calculate if it\u2019s worth the investment in app development. Answer these questions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What will you need this app for?<\/li>\n<li>Will it be of interest to your clients, and will they use it?<\/li>\n<li>Will you be able to recoup the cost?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Only when you\u2019re sure that the app will increase sales is it time to look for vendors.<\/p>\n<h3>The 7 Main Stages of Mobile App Development<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">1. Target Market Analysis<\/span><\/p>\n<p>At this stage, you have to understand what you expect from this app.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, define your target audience. What kind of people are they, what apps have they already been using? And are they ready to switch to your product? Think over the possible ways of communication with your clients via the app. Will you use it to expand the target market, or will it be possible to turn a one-time client into a loyal customer with its help?<\/p>\n<p>Also, take your budget into account. How much money are you ready to spend on app development?<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">2. Cohesive Solution<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Prepare technical requirements for your app development company. If you have no idea how the tech part of your project should work, no worries, your development team will offer you the best solution. You fill in the brief, and the developers choose the tools and methods to make your idea real. The marketing department collects data to create the target customer profile.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">3. Initial Estimate<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This is when you will determine how long it will take to develop the app, and what developers you need for your project. You will also get the initial price for app development. However, this price might differ from the final sum you&#8217;ll have to pay. The cost could be either lower or higher than you expect due to unexpected changes.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">4. Development<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When the tech requirements are ready and agreed upon with a designer, you can start app development. How much time does it take to make an app? An app with a few options and simple design will be created in 3\u20134 weeks. If you need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advicelocal.com\/blog\/must-have-features-for-branded-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">custom mobile app with unique design<\/a>, be ready to wait for six months or more.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">5. Testing<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you want to create a high quality product, you can\u2019t do without testing. It\u2019s an essential part of the app development process. You can choose manual or automated testing, but the main idea is to make sure that your app works properly and meets the standards.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">6. Release<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Depending on the chosen platform, you will release your app in the App Store or in Google Play. In both cases, creating an account requires payment \u2013 posting an app in Google Play Market comes in at $25, while App Store membership costs $99 annually.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">7. Support<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Simply releasing a mobile app is not enough. If you want more users, you have to advertise your software. Also, you might need to make some improvements or updates to satisfy your clients. All these services are also available in mobile app development companies.<\/p>\n<h3>Mobile App Development \u2013\u00a0Platforms, Payoff, and Promotion<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">1. Choose the Platform<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Carefully study the tastes of your target audience, and depending on the data you get, choose the platform. iOS is popular in the USA and Western Europe, while Android has more users in Asia. Take into account that iOS development is usually 10\u201315% more expensive.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">2. The Payoff<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/qubit-labs.com\/app-development-cost\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App development cost<\/a> is much higher than for a web application or website. And the latter expenditure is more quickly recovered, while your investment in a mobile app will be paid off in the future. The mobile app market is constantly growing, so you have to keep up with it to stay competitive.<\/p>\n<p>According to recent research, an average mobile user has about 20 apps, and half of that number will be various social networks and messengers. Nobody needs trash apps, so you have to provide your clients with a high-quality product if you don&#8217;t want them to quickly get rid of your product.<\/p>\n<p>Customers like free mobile apps (which you can monetize through advertisements). Bring value to your clients, and create the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocksdigital.com\/9-best-apps-business\/\">apps they find useful<\/a>. Deal with water delivery? Build a water balance app. If you sell products for kids, think about the app giving childcare tips.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">3. Advertising and Promotion<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Include money for promotion in the mobile app development budget. You might develop the best app in the world, but it will remain useless if people have no idea about its existence. Advertise your app and don\u2019t let your target audience forget about your products!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"callout\">Mobile App Quality Indicators<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Finally, to understand how successful your app is, pay attention to the following quality indicators:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Flawless performance<\/li>\n<li>Number of daily and monthly users<\/li>\n<li>Retention<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>The Process of Mobile App Development Can Pay Off<\/h2>\n<p>If your app works without a hitch, the number of your monthly users grows, and you manage to retain at least 50% of them, my congratulations! The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocksdigital.com\/mobile-ordering-apps\/\">app development<\/a> process is hard, but well worth the effort!<\/p>\n<div class='tm-tweet-clear'><\/div>\n<div class='tm-click-to-tweet'>\n<div class='tm-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Considering+an+App%3F+%23Mobile+%23App+Development+in+a+Nutshell+by+%40Julia_Qubit+%23RocksDigital&#038;url=https:\/\/www.rocksdigital.com\/business-mobile-app-development\/' target='_blank'>Considering an App? #Mobile #App Development in a Nutshell by @Julia_Qubit #RocksDigital<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Considering+an+App%3F+%23Mobile+%23App+Development+in+a+Nutshell+by+%40Julia_Qubit+%23RocksDigital&#038;url=https:\/\/www.rocksdigital.com\/business-mobile-app-development\/' target='_blank' class='tm-ctt-btn'>Click To Tweet<\/a><\/p>\n<div class='tm-ctt-tip'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><em>To app or not to app \u00ad\u2013 that is the question.
