To reach a wide audience, you need to consider your iOS, Android and mobile web users. To store and retrieve data across platforms you will need a backend server to store data and support the apps. In case you are expecting a lot of users, your backend will have to scale. Then after you have solved your scaling problems, you to have more ways to spread the word to get new users. But have you found a way to measure all this activity? And, the common bug bear – your app is crashing and causing service melt down and you haven’t even made a dime yet.

 There is an easier solution for these issues – Firebase.

Firebase was created with the express purpose of solving the numerous backend complexities related with building complex apps.

It has all the tools you need to build a successful app. It helps you to reach new users, keep them engaged, scale up to meet that demand, in addition to getting paid.

• From the beginning you’ll have Test Lab and Crash Reporting to prevent and diagnose errors in your app.
• Your backend infrastructure problems are solved – with Realtime Database, File Storage and Hosting Solutions.
• Acquiring new users is easy with Invites, Adwords and Dynamic Links. And using the authentication component you can get those users logged in with minimum friction.
• Once installed you can keep your users involved with cloud messaging, notifications and app indexing.
• Then with Remote Config you have the freedom to experiment with new features and optimize the user experience in real-time.
• And ofcourse you can earn money with the same Admob component that’s been monetizing great apps for years.
• Last, but certainly not least, the all-new Analytics component, designed uniquely for Firebase, brings insight into how well these components are working for you and your users. With Firebase Analytics you can measure and optimize your advertising campaigns, discover who are your most valuable users and understand exactly how they are using your app.

Now all these components work great on their own and provide a solid infrastructure to build out your app. But they work even better when combined in creative ways. So let Firebase handle the details of your backend infrastructure, user engagement and monetization. This will allow you to spend more time building the apps your users will love.

A Case Study:

We’ll cite a common example – everyone’s favourite: WhatsApp. Its user-centricity has impressed so many that it is now a verb. And brands becoming verbs is something.

Its user-friendliness can be felt from its on boarding screens that include the welcome experience, privacy settings, and phone number verification. These screens are minimal, clutter-free and easy to understand. That’s its UI advantage.

The welcome screen has a single ‘Continue’ button, explaining to its users what it to be done next.The phone number verification process is automatic. Besides, WhatsApp seeks permission to sneak into your contacts and files. With such precise Call-To-Action, ease of use, and clear intent, the app is trustful.

Moving on to messaging, it’s a wonderful experience – simple, personal, and real time – like it promises. The contacts are in easy view with chat functionalities that allow you to customise the settings for each contact. That’s its UX edge.

All this makes WhatsApp the people’s app. Here’s some brand loyalty statistics you don’t want to miss.

That Should The Importance Of UI/UX For Mobile App Development.

With apps dominating everywhere on modern-day mobile devices, it won’t be an exaggeration to say UI/UX largely defines their success. Before we jump onto why it’s important, let’s find out how it affects application ecosystem. From the above case study, it’s clear that when an app has fantastic UI/UX, it…

• Reduces load time.
• Allows intuitive and logical user control.
• Accounts for amazing look and navigation.
• Decreases bounce rates.
• Leads to better conversions and customer satisfaction.
• Helps in customer retention
• Gives meaning to your brand.
• Places it ahead of its competitors.
• Generates revenues and improves business.

The idea of an app is to provide comprehensive solutions in response to user requirements. Too many permission-requests, form filling, and cumbersome functions might lower the usability. Easy accessibility forms the crux of any app’s positive impact.

Remember, if your app is frustrating, chance are your users will uninstall it sooner or later. Keeping it simple and intuitive is the key to fostering lasting relationships with users. People who use your app should be able to flow from one screen to another intuitively, without hassles.

So, make UI/UX a part of your mobile& web app development strategy. Give your users a reason to stay.
