Recently, in a discussion with Mobile application developers group, a question came to me about the latest trends in mobile application development. While answering to it, I added that, in India the scope is still limited for mobile applications because of there are fewer companies with defined standards for development and quality management. But if we take the overall business world, there are few great applications available and that defiantly makes a trend. I would like to share some of them here.
If you are an entrepreneur or a small business owner looking into the mobile application industry, either to ride the wave or to capitalize on the fact that your customers are spending more time with their phone, this blog post will be able to help.
1. Micropayments - Micropayments can be defined as mobile transactions that involve a small sum of money. Micropayments within mobile applications can be used to upgrade basic app to a premium version, purchase game items, digital content or even small gifts for friends.
2. Security apps for Mobile devices – more encryption methods and data security software
3. Enterprise App Stores – Device level application stores, and User Configurable applications.
4. Location based Technology – It is available for various purposes, but should be linked with business applications, and instant information management.
5. Social Networking applications – Facebook, Myspace and twitter are already available, but there are millions of useful Web 2.0 social applications need a hand to reach.
6. Mobile application advertising – It gives enormous opportunities for Media developers
If you have plans to develop and market mobile applications – consider the above trends, because these are the most wanted applications according to many surveys through Symbian and Apple.
