Power of Mobile Apps and Populosoft's Custom iOS Development Services.
Is it just me, or is your brain also exploding with application ideas - web, mobile, or otherwise - that will solve a problem you see? I don’t think it was always like this. Something happened in the last few years that challenged how we think about problem-solving. Some people call that thing Artificial Intelligence, but I think there’s more to it. Anyway, let's try not to talk about AI, which itself is pretty hard these days.
Back to problem-solving. A puzzle for you: What is used by billions of users, has access to real-time user data, as well as real-time access to the user itself, grabbing attention anytime it likes?
If you’ve come up with anything other than a mobile phone or a mobile app as the answer, please tell me. Your imagination deserves praise.
I know there’s a thought somewhere deep inside us: “So many people have so many ideas, so what? I don’t see them having successful mobile apps.” Well, many people do have brilliant ideas, but the complexity of app design and launching bogs them down. A lack of professional support might just mean a great idea never fully reaches its potential.
I sat on an idea for a mobile app for more than a decad - never finding the time to build it and never finding something that could help me build my own app.
That’s when I had another idea and launched Populosoft. My mission is to ensure that “Each worthy idea ever should transform into an app solving real problems.”
I hear a lot that technology is an amazing thing. But if it’s truly amazing, I think my idea should transform into an app almost effortlessly.
Anyway, we will help you build an app—an iOS app.
Why are we focusing on iOS?
I strongly believe that if you’re entering the world of mobile apps, you must do it with an iPhone/iOS app.
Here’s the logic:
- You don’t need 10 billion+ users to be successful. You just need a few—and I think there are enough iPhone users, last time I checked.
- For your revolutionary ideas, you need a product with the utmost quality. Ensuring quality is a bit harder on Android; there are so many different types of devices. I don’t know—iPhones have something about quality.
- You need sticky, paying users. Are Apple users willing to pay premium prices? Are they sticky? You decide.
Native vs Non-Native iOS Development
There’s an urge to develop an app that can run everywhere—write it once and use it everywhere. There are some great technologies out there that do just that: web technologies like React Native or Flutter.
However, the user experience suffers with all those approaches. Web doesn’t work like apps; apps don’t work like web. You’ll always feel something is wrong with an app unless the app is built natively. That’s not just me talkin - you’ll hear it from a lot of experienced developers.
Anyway, let’s assume I’m wrong and we can give users the same experience - with only a small chance the experience will suffer. Why take the risk when all you need is a few million users (to be modest) and not all 10 billion+ users on the planet?
Note: I absolutely love the world of Android apps—but just like I said, I believe everyone who starts building mobile apps should start with iPhone apps. And I’m just getting started.
