What do you love to do during your spare time? What snatches you away from a stressful environment be it work or home? It would be no surprise to find out that your latest addiction is browsing for the latest apps on iTunes. Some people even list iPhone under their 'can't live without' category. While it is no wonder anymore, it is still amazing how something so small can get your mind off anything and actually enjoy it a lot!
iPhone opened a new door for various entrepreneurs. One very lucrative business nowadays is creating an application. Before, you need to be an expert coder or game designer to be able to build an application but since it went viral, even those with very little to no programming background can come up with an addicting and moneymaking application. Applications can be usually downloaded for free, trial, and paid with a price range starting at $0.99. The pricing scheme will depend on the author but set aside the price for the meantime. Your application should possess the following:
Put colorful yet comprehensive interface. Most users tend judge the app by its appearance. The first thing that attracts them towards an application is a well-designed logo and vivid environment. Make sure, though to live up to their expectation or your application will end up in the trash.
Functionality is what most people find interesting in an iPhone application. Often, it should answer your consumers' quest for a portable solution. Moms finding it hard to engage their techy kids in studies can simply launch an educational application and they would fall for its disguise.
Add the fun element into it. Who wants a boring application with nothing much to discover and do with anyway?
Easy navigation and simple interface would make your app user-friendly. The buttons should clearly point them to where they want to go and tell them what to do next instead of make them go round and round until they get tired of figuring out their way in.
Make your app unique or close to being unique. There are thousands of apps existing already and coming up with something that people have never seen before would be almost impossible. However, look around and you will find even a tiny detail in your surrounding that may become a big deal to your users. If you have to borrow an idea, add something new to make it distinct.
Be market-specific. Create an app that is intended for children who have special needs, and then make another one meant for moms who have multiple jobs, and the for stay-at-home dads, and then for college students with no boyfriend. These are just an example but this is how specific you should get. However, you can also create apps for general use if you want a wider following. All these features thrown into one mix will definitely be addicting. Your app should be something that is hard to put down.
Make your app compatible with a wide range of iOS versions so that even users who have the later version of iPod touch can also try your product. Make it flexible.
Keep in mind that creating a killer app not just comprises of technical details, codes, and C++ scripts. It also takes a good marketing and presentation to make sure that you app will not only bring fun to your supporters but also money to your bank account.
