2. A step-by-step approach
When looking for app development there are several factors that
need to be assessed to ensure that the project goes as per plan.
We have outlined a step-by-step approach that can be used for
reference:
3. 1. Clearly define the
objective
The first step is to define what the app intends to achieve. Will it
focus on enhancing customer experience or is it being developed
with the intention of generating additional sales? Once the main
objective is defined, it becomes easier to proceed with the finer
details of what is expected from the app.
4. 2. Define the scope of the
app
The most efficient way one can achieve this is by jotting down answers to
questions such as:
• Will the app have e-commerce integration?
• How can users get questions answered (chat feature/contact us/FAQs)?
• How will the user share information with his social networks?
• How can the company inform the user about new products?
• How will it help a user to be more productive?
5. 3. How to build an app
that is better than the
competitors’ apps
Whether it’s to enhance customer experience or improve business
performance, for the app to be successful, it should be better than
the competition. Analyze competitors’ apps to see what can be done
better or if there are any additional features or functionality that
your app can offer.
6. 4. Create Wireframes and
Use Cases to develop an
app
Now, it’s time to get started with creating a skeleton framework
that lays down the visual guide to the flow between various
functionalities and features. Start by defining each goal and
understand the use cases or user’s thought processes for each
task performed on the app.
7. 5. Testing the wireframes
Before the actual build begins, it’s vital to test
the wireframes to verify the flow and ascertain
whether there are any hindrances to the user
experience.
8. 6. Revision and retest
Based on the feedback from the initial testing the wireframes
should be updated to eliminate redundancies. Additional
testing is recommended to ensure that the flow is smooth
and error-free.
9. 7. Decide on the development
Before the actual build process commences, it’s essential to map
out the path for developing the app.
The two major decisions one needs to take are:
1. What language to use for coding?
2. What mobile app development platform to use for creating
the app?
10. 8. Building the app
This stage involves the actual building of the app, which
is a collaborative effort between the developers and
designers. A template needs to be chosen to enhance
the display of the app.
11. 9. Check the app in a real-
world scenario
Once the development of the app is complete, it’s time to test it once again to
see how it performs in a real-world situation. It’s important to go through this
process, even if the app has gone through several retests during wireframing to
ensure that it is free from bugs that can deter a pleasant user experience.
12. 10. Launching the app on
the store
Once the testing is complete, the mobile app is ready to be submitted
to the chosen app stores. Before this, it’s essential to ensure that all
the necessary compliances are in place, whether it is related to
security protocols or GDPR regulations.
