With the advancement of the mobile network era, mobile APPs are gradually replacing traditional PC websites. The widespread application of APPs is quietly changing our lifestyles.

So, what kind of problems will you encounter when developing APP?
1. The beginning without a plan
There is no planning before developing the APP and it is developed blindly. APP development is like building a house. You need to have a design drawing first and then lay the foundation. Therefore, you must make a plan before developing the APP, and present in writing the purpose of developing the APP and the functions that need to be implemented. Finally, a flow chart is designed based on requirements.
2. Blindly create cross-platform APP
Cross-platform APPs can, to a certain extent, obtain feedback from users’ actual use and help improve versions released on other platforms. However, cross-platform APPs generally do not have comprehensive functions, and for multiple independent platforms, more coding is required. Therefore, before designing an APP, it is necessary to conduct a survey of users with different ages, lifestyles, educational environments, etc., and finally determine the proportion of Android and iOS used, and determine the development platform.
3. Not paying attention to developer suggestions
Usually when designers get some inspiration, they will add some other elements. When considering the problem from the perspective of a developer, they will feel that the addition is redundant, or generates some unnecessary data, which is inconsistent with the operation of mobile devices. The experience doesn’t match.
4. Design the APP into website mode
There are two main reasons why users are willing to use APP: usefulness and simplicity and speed, and both are indispensable. If the APP is set up as a website, it will not only open slowly and crash easily, but also take a lot of time to find the key points you want.
5. Mobile phone screen size is not compatible
The same APP has different layouts and formats on different mobile phones, so developers need to pay attention to the compatibility of mobile phone screen sizes.
6. Trigger background program
When using the APP, other background services are running on the mobile device, causing excessive system demands and causing the device to crash.
7. Ignoring operating system integration
Android and iOS style layouts and navigation are very different, and projects need to be created to match each operating system to satisfy users. For iOS, it requires apps designed specifically for the operating system.
8. Save testing
It is a natural process for a person’s thinking to guide him to do things. Developers or design programmers cannot make fair judgments on the products they develop or design. The products they develop are based on what they know. So it cannot be tested by developers or designers themselves. The test group should be the target users or people who have not participated in the development. It is best not to be family members, because comparative testing is not objective and fair.
