Tablet applications had played a crucial role in this popularity of Tablet among the youngsters. These applications have attracted both the developers and clients to make a statement among the charts. So if you too are looking to develop a tablet application then you should first look at the horoscope or future trends of tablet application development so that you can update your applications accordingly.

Responsive Design

Responsive design of an application is defined as the feature by which the user interface of the application changes itself according to the size of the gadget screen. This feature was firstly developed for the mobile applications but in the upcoming trends ; it is expected to be incorporated with the tablet applications too.

Tablet Apps Will Leverage the Cloud

At the present scenario; all the data and content of a device is stored in a particular memory location of the device only. This makes it an hassle to transfer the data from one device to another across different platforms. The cloud feature of the tablets will facilitate the user to share all the data on a common cloud; with this feature you would be able to access your data and content from any device at any place. Icing the cake; you will also be able to share this data with your friends and group.

The further advanced version of this technology is expected to evolve the facility of managing the state of the content between all of your devices. For instance, if a user is watching a video or playing games online on a tablet, he will be able to navigate to his desktop or other device and the video or game will be in the same state as he was watching on the tablet.

Second Screen

According to the recent survey on the using factor of tablets, it is reported that 70 % of tablets is used while watching TV. The application that is running on the tablet screens would be used to complement what you’re watching on TV. For example if you are watching a TV show with your friends, you can communicate with them about the show using an app specifically designed for that show.

Code Consolidation

Gone will be the pattern when developing an application would be centered to a particular device.the consolidation will allow the developers to design an open source general application that will be compatible with all types of platforms. For example the code that would be used for an iPad would also be the same for a Kindle.

Android Application Development : Reason For Business Application Failure

Android is the most popular name among the mobile operating platforms. This statement acquires the sound proof from  the fact that around 7 out of every 10 Smartphones are working on the Android operating systems. With the  increasing popularity stats of Android; the Android application development is too shining with bright colors every day.

Android applications are developed on different genre of categories like gaming applications, utilities, social network apps, Business applications and many more. Among these categories; Business applications are the most trickiest as well as most popular topic for Android application development.

The latest report from a survey in US stated that 69% of the application users open an application 10 times or even less. These figures undoubtedly clear the misconception that ‘total download figures’ is the only parameter to declare the success of an android application.

To provide a better spotlight on the reasons behind the flop show;I am providing the list of top 5 reasons which accounts for the failure of a Business Android application.

A Black Hole While Defining the Business Objective

This is one of the most common reason behind the failure of any business application. Many of the businesses start designing the application without any judgment about the purpose of the application. It is very important that your business application must describe the genre of your  business with it.

Poor User interface Kills the interaction 

The user interface of a business application is one of the key parts of the android application development. An application with a poor user interface can never ensure the probability that the users will open the application again. So while developing an  Business android application; you must always look forward for its User Interface.

Poor Security of the User’s Information and Data

Security is undoubtedly the prime factor. If your application requires to fetch the personal data and information from the user then it becomes crucial that the information is secure from the spams. No user will ever choose a business application which lacks in the security factor of the confidential information.

Offering Every Functionality at the First Release 

Users love something new every time; if you are providing every feature and functionality to the user at the first release then for what he will again visit your website? Android application is a hierarchical development process so it is a smart move to offer a basic version at the starting stage and then updating it regularly according to the needs and requirement of the user. 

Ineffective Application Promotion

Developing a great mobile application is not the last step of Android application development. Promotion of the application is too a crucial part of the App development process. It is approximately impossible to taste the fruit of success with your business application if you are not working hard to make it reach the target crowd. 

These top 5 reasons behind the failure of a Business application are just the major part of the series. There are lots more other factors that can affect the process of Android application development. If you want to be the favorite application search; Always try to think as a user while designing an application.

For the exceptions; there could be a need to build a new UI from scratch. With an increase in the implementation of customized UI elements, the development process becomes unreliable and complex.

Mistake 2: Resolution selection should be good

The user interface is the prime signature note for any type of iPhone application. A poor and uninteresting UI can surely force the user to turn off even a highly useful application. All thanks to the Retina display technology of the iPhone; that provides the unmatched HD viewing experience to the user. To attract the attention of the user by providing an extra brilliant and super HD UI; the developers loads large graphic resolutions to the applications. This large resolution of the UI slows down the application and hence makes a foul note in the reputation. So it is very crucial to select the most appropriate resolution for your applications.

A lot of application developers work on different kind of applications at the same time that causes the degradation of application’s quality. Working on different kind of development projects can make your applications or results just ‘general’.
