The iOS is one of the most popular platforms among the application developers all over the world. The applications developed for the platform benefit both the app developers as well as the consumers. Some of the major mistakes committed by a large number of amateur iPhone app developers are discussed below.
Excess of features
While it is important to add unique features to your application to be to able to appeal to your target audience, it is equally important to avoid overdoing it. The features improve the functionality of the app but at the same time loading the app with too many features would not only increase the loading time but would also decrease the efficiency of the app.
At the same time, this is something which would provide unsatisfactory user experience. For an iPhone application to be successful it is quintessential to strike a right balance between creativity and user friendliness. The application being developed should meet the expectation of the targeted audience in terms of performance and aesthetics and ease-of-use.
Speed
Often times, the newbie iPhone developers tend to get over ambitious in their endeavor to create a highly functional and attractive looking application and use high resolution images and graphics. While the high-end graphics and images appeal to the audience visually, it makes the application itself slow.
Several veterans in the iPhone app development suggest that using the right size image and format is crucial to optimize the efficiency of the application. Also it is important to have good animation features in the app you develop. Majority of the useful applications fail to appeal to the audience mainly because of their poor animation and graphics; the users consider such applications as redundant and bland.
Functionality
This is another vital factor that several rookie iPhone app developers tend to ignore while developing an application for their customer. The core essence of developing an iPhone application is to increase the functionality of the iPhone as well as improving the efficiency of the business.
While designing the app you must know that the purpose of the app is to help the users make their task easier. It is therefore essential that you focus your attention to make the interface of the app simple and user-friendly so that you are able to capture the attention of the target audience and keep them engaged in using your app. The app you design should be such that the users rely on it to do their task. Also, it is important that the app idea you choose should be practical.
