Today, the entire world is going mobile and it has become essential for a serious business to have a dedicated app that reaches your potential customers. • Building an iPhone app may be challenging but the rewards are many in terms of customer outreach and brand building. The top app development companies on the market will help you develop a strong application that is both user tested and serves a clear marketing purpose. Alternatively, you can also hire an experienced app developer for your startup. However, app development requires planning and execution. Here are six lessons that can be beneficial in helping you navigate the app development process.

3. Identify The Purpose & Market • Before taking steps forward towards execution, you need to think in terms of the reason of creating an iPhone app. • If not, then decide the purpose of your app, what problem will it solve, why do you want to create it, how will it look like, its future planning and so on. • Be clear about who you are targeting, develop your app with target audience in mind. This can be done by undertaking the research process to make your task easier.

4. Create Simple & Unique Design • A thumb rule for building a simple and impressive iPhone app is to create content that is perfectly tailored to the users’ screen so that users do not need to scroll left or right all the time. • You want to ensure that your team designs a layout that is fluid and intuitive. Your user interface should guide your users in a way that they are drawn deeper into your brand message through each screen. • Instead of applying all your programming knowledge to create fancy but non-functional bells and whistles, keep your interface simple and useful to get the most bang for your buck.

5. Focus On Key Features • Content creation consists of images, videos and a lot more, but before you turn to content creation, ensure that you are throwing light on the core features of your app. • There are tons of apps flooding the App store everyday. Each successful app has a unique purpose and is built with features that serve specific utility. • In a competitive app development market, you need to focus on the functionality of your features and user friendly design for your iPhone app.

6. Create Compatible App • The iOS compatible versions of applications will get updated faster than non-native applications that require manual updates. Therefore, we recommend that you ask your team to create an app that is iOS compatible and supports multiple versions. • This is important because there are always consumers among your user-base who haven’t purchased most recent iPhone. Your iPhone must support multiple versions to appeal to a wider range of iPhone Users.

7. Consider Apple Rules & Regulations • When you implement the process of creating an app, double check Apple guidelines. This is because Apple is very strict about the quality of the apps they allow into their app store. • In order to avoid any rejection after developing an app, it is better to pay attention to Apple Guidelines right from the conceptualization through to launch phase of your app. • To get approval for an app is a time consuming process - if your app gets rejected you require to a lot more time to rectify the issues than if you get it right in the first place.

8. Test Before Launch Day • Testing your app is best way to avoid facing any rejection and delays from Apple for the approval of your app. It is crucial to test your app for another reason. If your app is lackluster and fails to grab the attention of users the first time you launch, then they are unlikely to return to the app - especially is they have had a poor user experience. • One great way is to follow the A/B testing process where you can release two varied versions of your app and gauge which version of your app was preferred by internal users.

9. Test Before Launch Day • We hope these lessons will be helpful to you while undertaking the iPhone app development process. Once you have all of these lined up, be prepared with a strong promotion strategy during and after the launch period. You can use cross channel platforms to promote your app because if people do not know about your app, then they would not be able to download it.
