Clearing the air about several widespread myths
about mobile app development
2
People have adopted smartphones as their primary
choice of browsing. People prefer accomplishing a
lot of their tasks through mobile applications.
This obviously demands that every business owner
focuses on rolling out an app for his or her
business that offers the customers all the
services at the fingertips.
With the increasing popularity of the smartphone
platform, mobile application development has
become a top priority for all business owners in
order to gain a loyal customer base.
It has been noted that the sales of
well-established and famous companies went up by
at least 15-20 after all those companies
launched custom mobile apps.
3
This is enough to encourage any enterprise owner
to start planning to get app development services.
While everyone seems to be gearing up for
designing mobile apps for their business, there
are several myths related to mobile application
development that are on the rise among app
developers as well as enterprise owners.
These myths are so widespread that they seem to
be hindering a lot of mobile app development
progress. Users get disappointed because of apps
full of errors and bugs or the launched app does
not even take off the ground due to a lack of
proper marketing. All these are results of the
app development process being shrouded in myths.

We, an app development company finally have
decided to do something about it. After
consulting all the app development experts of our
team, we have come up with a list of all the app
development myths that people completely believe
in and have demystified them all.
Here are all the widespread myths demystified
Myth 1 - Android mobile apps reap low revenues
5
This is a myth even app developers believe in.
Several software companies suggest their clients
to steer away from android mobile app development
as there is a higher scope of earning revenue on
the iOS platform. The logic behind this fails us.
Over 70 of the smartphone share is held by
Android and iOS hold only 20 of it.
6
Some experts say that as the Apple app store has
very strict policies for publishing an app while
the Play Store is liberal with its policies, the
Android platform is too cluttered with useless
apps. But that does not conclude that there can
be no monetary benefits on the Android platform.
If the app is good enough, it is bound to earn
revenues on any platform and the Android having
more user base, the probability of gaining profit
there is more too.
Myth 2 - The more features the app has, the
better
7
Most business owners think that the mobile app is
a miniature version of their complete enterprise
website. One should understand that a mobile
application is meant to be focused on offering a
specific set of features and functionality to a
fixed type of targeted users. When one tries to
attract all types of users to the app, the app
tends to lose its functionality and gets too
cluttered. It is always advisable to never try to
kill two birds with one stone.
8
As the app would be installed on the phone and
constantly communicating with the server, too
many features may slow it down or make it occupy
a lot of memory space, both of which are a total
turn off for app users.
Myth 3 - Once the app is launched, your work is
done
9
Launching an app is just the first step of the
process. Once the app is launched, then comes the
marketing requirements, the regular updates, the
elimination of bugs, and so on. The first thing
that you need to note down in block letters is
The app cannot promote itself.
It is a common assumption among most business
owners that once the app is published on the app
store or the play store, it will just promote
itself. This is completely untrue. You need a lot
of promotional tactics to get the app off the
ground.

Myth 4 - The mobile app idea has to be unique to
gain popularity
There are several people out there who think that
launching an app which does not have a unique or
an intellectual idea to support it is futile.
11
This is completely untrue. One can launch an app
with a pre-existing app concept and yet watch it
rise high on popularity ranks. Undoubtedly, an
app with a unique idea does attract more eyeballs
but that can happen only when the app has an
impressive UI/UX as well.
In short, for an app to become successful, it
needs seamless UI/UX more than a unique idea.
Myth 5 - High-level of graphics attract more
users
12
Unless your app is meant for gaming or
entertainment purpose, the graphics are not
extremely significant. Dont get us wrong, we are
not saying that those graphics are not at all
important. Graphics are needed but only to
improvise the usability of the app.
The most significant factor is the UX.
There are several applications which have a
minimalist design and a well-defined
functionality on the top grossing list of the
Play Store.
13
Summing Up
The moment you are out of the bubble of these
myths, you can successfully get a mobile app
developed, launch it and receive an overwhelming
response from the users. Also, the sole key to
getting a good custom enterprise app developed
lies in choosing quality app development services.
