iPhone Development In India—Focused on Cost benefits of The Project

In previous part we have been revisited the native iPhone apps development and hybrid iPhone application programming. We compare them at the point of view of the cost-effectiveness of the development against the quality they deliver and found that the native apps are the best option as far as quality is concern while if you ready to compromise with quality at some extent then hybrid approach is highly cost-effect option.
Now in this post we will evaluate the altogether different aspect of the iPhone application development where cost is the prime factor and experience is entirely different than that of both previous options. The main reason behind this is that the iPhone web app development is use web browser to create API instead native iOS APIs, of course just like hybrid apps but the major difference is that web apps don't try to access hardware or iOS features like hybrid apps but solely rely on the browser capability and use HTML 5 and JavaScript to get functionality of the device.
Another benefit of the web app is that it won't store anything on the device except HTML 5 special cache yet it can run offline for some period and leave device load free most of the time. As it is browser base and need constant internet connections all data and applications resides on the server and iPhone development India team has to use all server and web related resources to functioning of the web apps. This way it has a big and distinct advantage is that it can give exceptional features and functionality that neither native nor hybrid apps can give.

In iPhone app programming developers are using web technologies and these technologies are almost common for the most of the developers so iPhone web application development is really rapid process with the least resources consumption. In present days time is money so iPhone web app development India is highly cost-effect option. Here web technologies are used so you can find many iPhone development India companies to get highly competitive prices without compromise the quality of the iPhone app.

iPad Application Development—Beat Daunting Task of Testing Part


In previous part we have seen that the iPad application developers are not care to test the application more as they only concentrating on the coding and see how their code works bit by bit. Above those we also have seen the importance of the getting right iPad application development partner and getting original design files.

Now in this part we will go ahead and will see that application testing is not simple task as we all assume because we don't only see that application is working properly and as per expectations but also consider the different use cases and user environments where user will behave unexpectedly or application may face altogether different process where the chances of its crashing increases.

Normal testing will show you that how app will behave in normal use cases and users will reach at their targets but abnormal testing will show you that what will happen when a user use it in totally abnormal conditions and try to do functions which are not though during the planning of the iPad app development at all.

Above all the important thing for the tester is that to create perfect documentations of the testing process where tester has to take screen shots of the errors so she not only show iPad developers those error exist but also depict them very clearly so developers can understand them well. If tester is belong to the good iPad apps development team she will also prepare some mockups for those errors and will discuss the possible solutions of that so developers will get more clue to modify their coding.

Thus only complaining about the errors is not enough but you should discuss the possible and expected solutions of those errors. If a tester can indicate the possible locations of the problems creation she will save lots of time of the iPad developers to fix those bugs. Another thing is that if tester set the priorities of the fixing errors then she can accelerate the speed of bug fixing hence the overall iPad apps programming

Conclusion:
Testing during iPad app development is very important because the success of the marketing of the iPad application is solely depending on that how bug free and error free products you put in the hands of the end users.

iPad Development Boosting Growth Of Magazine Industry


It was the time of the beginning of the recession and every business facing difficulties to sustain in the market and magazine industry was not spared. News stand were scared with few takers of prints and advertising income was slashing down to nil for some good magazines too. In such situations iPad came as a savor and it has revived the magazine industry again.

People who avoid the reading of print issues now downloading the digital issues on their iPads and iPad app development companies seemed busy to create fabulous magazine apps. The real reasons behind this revolution was the enchanting experiences of the reading a magazine on the iPad. Due to its big screen size iPad was far better option against the iPhone and the mobility factor was greater than the laptop because you use laptop only in particular places while iPad permits you to read your favorite magazine on the go, even you can read while you are sleeping on your bed or standing in a long queue.

Use of hand gestures making iPad experiences more intuitive and hard efforts of the iPad app developers paying the good returns in terms of downloading rate. When Apple has improved the technologies of iPad with subsequent versions and it reached at the peak with iPad Mini and iPad 4 where retina display and other hardware features as well as iOS features have added more spices make recipe more tasty for the users of iPad magazines.

Many smart and advance magazines have started some new trends in their iPad version taking leverage from just flipping PDF versions to highly interactive and updated content providing iPad apps. Now iPad application development companies know how to put animations in iPad versions of the magazines and add multimedia content like interactive texts, images, sound and live videos so they change the entire concept of the traditional magazines. 

Conclusion:
With the advent of online content print media was facing hard time and particularly print magazines were near to collapsing but iPad has not only saved the industry but boosts its growth exponentially giving an entirely new look and feel.

A Marketing Decision After Wrapping Up iPhone App Development - Part: 2


In part 1 we have seen that after the laborious process of iPhone application development an iPhone developer has to take some important marketing decisions to convert her efforts in to the gold and we also have seen that most of the iPhone app developers are thinking straight forward ways to place their apps simply in App store and give some good description along with that is enough marketing effort to get success. But as mentioned previously that now iPhone app buyers are getting confusion due to plenty of options in front of them and wish to see or experience your product before spending any dough.

In such scenario we have to take some different approaches and should arrange something that our prospective customers can see our apps and experience its unique features and functionality at least at some primitive level so they can decide that whether your iPhone app is useful for them or not as well as can place reviews to show your mistakes or any errors committed during your iPhone development. This creation of stripped down version is called the demo version of the final product and that can give your prospective buyers to some clues about your product.

In most of the demo versions iPhone developers give a link to draw the buyers toward the App store where their full version is available thus they first can win the heart and trust of the prospective buyers and then initiate the successful purchasing. This demo thing is possible in Apple App store because App store allows you to place more than one version of your iPhone application so you can place both versions simultaneously and can sell your apps at desirable rates.

At the other side of the coin you as an iPhone developer need not to do extra exercises to create a demo version of you app during your iPhone programming as you have to only mute or remove the advance features and functionality of your full-fledged version and place a link that directing your demo users to the full version. However, in some cases demo users don't purchasing your full version and run their work just with demo version but the number of such people are very few and that won't affect your revenue stream much.

A Marketing Decision After Wrapping Up iPhone App Development - Part: 1


Implementing a good iPhone application development idea is not smooth sailing in itself, after all a daunting task, but once you wrap up this process now you have time to think about the marketing aspects of the well crafted product. Someone will say there is no other alternatives than App store so just place them and the quality of your apps will sell them automatically.

That is true at some extent that if your iPhone app has not desirable quality and you didn't applied good iPhone app programming practices according to the guidelines of the Apple your chances of approval and subsequently observing good downloading will be dimmed. Therefore, good quality is must and first desired feature. But if your prospective customer is doesn't know that what quality is offered in your iPhone app then how she buy that.

Well, App store has devised an arrangement for that and you can give detailed description of your iPhone application, its features, functionality and the opinions of its users along with rating, who have already used that. In most cases these things are working well and you can get surge of downloading in the next two or three days and might have retained a level of downloading for longer if you are getting good reviews and rating from more and more customers.

These give you good rewards of you sincere efforts of iPhone app development and your paid version is selling just like a hot cake in the App store. This was almost true before sometime when App store was new thing and competition was almost nil, but at present days there are plenty of iPhone apps development companies are out in the market to give superb quality apps to beat another competitors and their lucrative descriptions as well as rating and review manipulation practices confuse many buyers and they prefer to see or at least experience some of the features of your iPhone app.

Conclusion:

When we finish an iPhone application development project we think that our job is over and our unique and quality product will sell automatically in the App store but that is our big mistake and we need to chart out some post development marketing strategies so in this series of posts I have drawn some sketches of them.
