Introduction The app world is full of apps in various categories across the spectrum of the global mobile market. The IOS apps have a closed ecosystem of IOS products by Apple only. This means the screen size and tablet size is not varied and hence do not create too much a problem for the iOS app designer. The developer because of this is able to produce a much better rendition of the design ideas and also make it work much better.


Introduction However, there need to be some guidelines that are essential to the success of any app creation. In this article, we are going to see some of the steps or necessary iOS app design guidelines required for a smooth flow of development process. Let us get to it one by one.


Programing The best way or the only way to create a great working app for the IOS platform is through the use of swift, objective C and X-Code. The swift is a decade's old platform for putting in the code to work the way that you plan it to be. The swift has introduced a new range of syntax to make things easy for the app developers.


Programing Though people still use objective C the swift has become the mainstay for IOS app development. Moreover, it was a much-needed development or replacement. Swift has a better way of catching errors and brings out the irregularities in the code than in objective C.


The design The app must speak the language of the speaker. It means that it should be able to connect well with the human user in an engaging way. The app experience should be effortless for the user and the buttons and the speed of app should be spot on. The conventions of app designs should be kept in mind while developing the app. If you try to go astray you might end up losing your customer base.


Review You need to review your IOS app design before you launch it on the apps store. If the standard is not met with then you stand the risk of not getting onto the shelf of the store. The best way to prevent this is to let your app be reviewed by experts and fill in the blanks. As soon as you have your MVP ready send it to as many experts as possible and take the reviews seriously and make the changes where they are due.


Social integration In the age of social media, the social integration is a big thing. You need to add your app to as many social media websites as possible as this will help to create a social understanding and credibility to your app. The more your app gets the social credit the more it will be recognised by the masses online and hence will convert into more customers.


Type You need to be clear in your mind as to what type of app you want to bring into the app world. Whether you want a paid app service or a subscription based app or even a free app service. You should be careful here as all of these different categories will require their own way of user interface and design. So do not mess up it over here.


Conclusion The apps can be in any category of the app market. Be it a to do a task or a simple calculator you need to be sure of the purpose that you are creating it for. When you have an app idea make sure to launch it with full planning ahead and not waste too much time later on. As once the app is launched there are only updates that you can provide to your customers. The design of your app must carry forward your brand and every section must display it in a splendid manner.
