Mobile communication is so integrated into our lives that many people feel uncomfortable without a cell phone.

WHAT IS MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT?
A mobile app is a software that runs on a handheld device (phone, tablet, e-reader, iPod, etc.) that can connect to wifi or wireless carrier networks, and has an operating system that supports standalone software.
Mobile applications date back to the end of the 20th century. In the past few years, mobile apps have progressed swiftly and new applications are being introduced in the market every now and then. As the users of these apps are getting more demanding day by day, the developers are trying to develop such apps that meet their needs. As per the current scenario, Google Play houses 2.2 million apps and the Apple App Store has about 2 million apps and this number is not going to slow down anymore.
The Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was the first commercially available cell phone. First marketed in 1983, it was 13 x 1.75 x 3.5 inches in dimension, weighed about 2.5 pounds, and allowed you to talk for a little more than half an hour. It retailed for $3,995, plus hefty monthly service fees and per-minute charges.
Nokia was famous for putting the 1970s video game Snake on some of its earliest phones. Other followed, adding games like Pong, Tetris, and Tic-Tac-Toe.
These early phones changed the way people thought about communication. As mobile phone prices dropped, batteries improved, reception areas grew, and more and more people began carrying these handy devices.
IMPORTANCE OF MOBILE APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT IN TODAY’S COMPETITIVE WORLD?
The mobile app industry is an exciting area to keep an eye on. It has grown immensely over the last decade and it is likely that it’ll continue to do so.
Early phones had very small monochrome low-res screens and limited storage and processing power. They couldn’t handle the data-intensive operations required by traditional Web browsers. The bandwidth requirements for data transmission were also costly to the user.
The Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) standard was developed to address these concerns. The WAP solution was great for handset manufacturers. They could write one WAP browser to ship with the handset and rely on developers to come up with the content users wanted.
PAYMENT FROM MOBILE DEVICE
Payment was handled through various premium-priced delivery mechanisms such as Short Message Service (SMS), Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS), Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS), and WAP Push.
A variety of different proprietary platforms emerged and developers are still actively creating applications for them. One of the first was the Palm OS (now Garnet OS) and RIM Blackberry OS. Sun Microsystems popular Java platform became Java Micro Edition (Java ME). Qualcomm developed its Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless (BREW). Symbian OS was developed by Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, and Samsung. The Apple iPhone iOS joined the ranks in 2007. Google’s Android came along a year later.
The mobile phone market has become increasingly fragmented, with all platforms sharing part of the pie. Mobile software developers work with different programming environments, different tools, and different programming languages.
APPLE PAY & GOOGLE PAY
These days, instead of using credit or debit cards, a considerable number of customers prefer to make purchases through Google Wallet and Apple Pay. Therefore, this is giving a push to m-commerce.
Coupled with wearable devices, m-commerce payment facilities will take a different shape in 2017. Beyond predictive analytics and data collection, wearable will also play a major role in the future of m-commerce and customer loyalty.
In the current market, the two mobile platforms of choice are Google’s Android and Apple’s IOS. It makes sense, therefore, to develop your application for one or both of these platforms if you want to achieve higher market penetration and generate better revenues. Our expert developers have thorough skills and well-honed experience in developing customized applications using both Apple’s iOS SDK and Google’s Android development environment.
IPHONE APP DEVELOPMENT
