There is a lot more in developing mobile applications than meets the eye. Product managers need to become more skilled in the technical field, engineers need to jump into understanding design, UX and UI - and client or user. Tasks on both sides require a deep knowledge of devices and available systems and its limitations. All of that often has an impact of how we think and work in day-to-day projects. So how to change the way we work, learn from each other designers and product owners from developers and vice versa, how to prototype every tiny detail and design humbly. Why we shouldn’t trust what we see on the paper and on design artboards. Talking through all of this will help us all to understand the crucial new way of thinking while developing mobile applications not only for present success but also for the future users.

“The truth is that the world doesn’t begin and end with the iPhone. So many
designers limit themselves to iOS, and when the time comes to design for
Android, they just translate — often almost literally — the original app.”
