Usable Mobile Apps Brings More Success In The Market


Usability plays an important role in app development. The success of mobile apps is highly dependable on its usability by the end user. The range of different handset models is what makes it difficult to define a standard for the apps usability factor.


Below are a few tips to develop usable mobile apps: 1.

Screen resolution

2.

Color combination

3.

Font size and style

4.

Buttons functionality

5.

Limitation of mobile devices


Screen Resolution With technology advancements, new mobile devices are introduced every day with more features from mobile companies. Each of them has different screen size, capability, and features which makes it difficult for developers to develop usable mobile apps. However, it is impossible to develop one mobile app that is compatible with all the devices. Hence, rather than trying to make an app more complex by adding too many unnecessary features, it is better to make it as simple as possible with lesser features.


Color Combination Almost every handset comes with an LCD display today, supporting mind blowing colors and contrasts. Many developers often forget that mobile devices are meant for mobility and users can use it anywhere, either in the sunlight or in a dark room, and incorporate loud colors which make it difficult for users to read the contents or texts in during day or night time.


Font Size and Style Mobile screens are tinier than that of desktops or laptops; hence most of the handsets contain smaller fonts which are sometimes impossible to read clearly. However, while developing content for the app try using fonts that are bigger and can be easily read by the users. This will eventually help improve the usability of the app.


Buttons Functionality It is important to make the buttons within the mobile devices more clear and appropriate, which can help users to easily identify their functionality. This functionality of different buttons in the app is often not understandable by the mobile developers. Providing help menu to users will also help them know the functionalities of each button.


Limitation Of Mobile Devices It is vital to keep in mind the limitations that come with mobile devices. Many developers include functionality that is hard to perform on tiny

handsets.

Developing mobile applications are always very exciting and also helps to explore one’s creativity through it. Many focus more on its design rather than the usability. Although, making a usable app has become a necessity in today’s world for the app to achieve success and visibility.
