Growth
is an imperative part of technology and this rule applies to mobile apps too. The mobile app space is shared between Android and iOS,with each of the platforms giving stiff competition to the other. While Android apps dominate in terms of the market share, iOS takes the cake when it comes to revenue generation. Apple users beat the Android users in terms of loyalty as they prefer to stay with their operating system rather than switch to others. For this reason, the
mobile app developers have to make sure that the iPhone apps follow the latest trends so that they reach the maximum number of users and retain them.
Here are the emerging trends
that will be shaping iPhone apps in 2017:
The Swift Breakthrough
The
transition from Objective-C to Swift coding has been the biggest
breakthrough in the iphone app development space.
The switch has opened up a whole new range of Xcode tools for the
developers, enabling them to write a reliable code for the apps. To
add to this, Apple has come up with Swift 2, which has a host of
developer friendly features. Swift can be used to develop apps for
iOS, as well as tvOS and WatchOS.
Ibeacons
Another
popular iPhone app trend is that of location tracking, which comes
forward in the form of iBeacons. Apps will be designed to offer
location-based services so that they can provide an enhanced user
experience and avail the maximum of business opportunities.
Cloud Technology
This
year, cloud technology will make an indispensable part of the
checklist of an iphone
app developer. By
integrating this technology in the app, they would enable it to sync
across multiple devices. Also, the app size would be reduced, freeing
up device space.
IoT
iOS
apps are most likely to experience the positive influence of the
Internet of Things and big data in 2017. As the focus will be on
harnessing the IoT technology for enterprise mobility and home
automation, these apps will come to the forefront.
Mobile
Commerce
As more and more businesses are going online, the trend in mobile apps too would be turned in favor of m-commerce apps for iPhones. Integration of innovative features such as beacons and mobile wallets will improve the shopper's experience as well as generate more business for the sellers. Also, these apps have the benefit of quick and easy checkout and secure payments.
App
Security
Another
trend that has surfaced this year related to the security features of
iPhone apps. These apps have been regarded notorious for neglecting
security essentials as per the Gartner
App Security Report 2015. The app developers will now be making more
efforts to protect data security and user privacy. This becomes all
the important due to the integration of cloud technology.
Adopting
these innovative trends have become a necessity of every app development company so
that they can deliver futuristic solutions to their clients. Those
who stay behind these trends are likely to lose as being tech-savvy
is something that adds to their reputation.
