These lessons supply an important understanding in how app developers should go about thinking about app development, and more importantly, how the app and smartphone experience may change.Having developed a variety of apps across categories for many different clients and mobile OS platforms, SDI predicts major trends & insights in mobile app development.GamificationThe concept of gamification is simple - mimic the points, challenges, leaderboards, and to some extent the design language of games in non-game situations.Gamification is being woven into apps across categories. Workout apps, for example, "gamify" by allowing users to post achievements, unlock new real life challenges (a new difficult cycling route, for example) and brag about successfully completing a certain challenge to other participants.Even cooking apps have borrowed the mutual competitiveness by allowing users to post photos of their dishes to other users, and compare and critique them. More notably, multinational cafe chain Starbucks awarded discounts to cafe visitors who have won the 'Mayor' ranking for FourSquare check-ins at Starbucks locations.Smartphones are essentialGoing back maybe eight years ago, it was hard to believe that one would spend a lot of money on a phone. However, the last two years have shown how smartphones are not only productivity and entertainment devices, but have established an emotional appeal among users.

Firstly, looking at major successful apps across categories, one can see that being available on the web and across devices is part of the reason for their success. From gaming to note-taking, consumers are looking for rapid convenience, and you cannot discount web versions of mobile apps.Apple got this right when they developed the iCloud. Secondly, there is no more loyalty to a certain OS. Samsungs march towards monopolizing the smartphone market has been marked by Apple losing potential customers heavily.At Software Developers India- SDI , the effort is always to give clients the best apps solutions for their money.
