Cellular telephones are in a war to try to gain the most users. John Anderson of (http://www.vermontinternetdesign.com) (http://www.vtwe.com) explains a little bit about cell phones and cellular information.
“Cellular information is information that is present in each one of our lives and most of us don’t even know it. Your choice to like a specific type of cellular telephone can mean a lot to an applications developer like myself. I want to know who has what type of phone.” John explains “There is a phone for everyone. People tend to like Iphones, Android, or Windows Phone. Whatever makes them stand out is usually what people go with. I’ve noticed by watching the trends of the people around me. A lot of the cellular telephones get users into onto the plate by making their devices cheaply available.There are alot of people who use devices that are just on hand.”
John has recently developed a mobile application for each major mobile platform. Across the internet developers have complained with lengthy timelines and app certification process problems. The app development world is more less turning into an online community of scientists. What is society to an app developer?
“Well I like to think of the people who use apps as the audience. I’m the guy standing on the stage singing them a song letting them know that everything is going to be easier. When an app goes out and people start to use it, they become part of the community. To me the app users are my audience. So I want to build applications to capture their attention.” John says “The bandwagon effect, can essentially be a great effect or not. Everyone needs to jump on to the bandwagon, even if it’s for a short period of time. I’ve developed with each platform and the overall development process is actually quite easy. Apple I had a little more trouble with than the others, however I can attribute that to being a new mac user.”
“It is a balance, you must be patient and you must be able to work hard. It’s nice to finally see your app listed on the marketplace. The value of the app is completely dependent on your business. A lot of work goes into these things. Developing is not a job developing is a lifestyle. To envision capturing market share think in of terms of kings and kingdoms. That is about how it works. From the perspective of the app developer we want to know what you and your friends want to use. We don’t want to build apps that no one wants to use or show to their friends. If the name of the product makes it hard to sell, we want to know, sometimes it might make sense to change a name if it means a bigger kingdom. We as developers want you to stop using other people’s apps and use ours. Essentially we are on the hunt for everyone’s time all at once. I guess the overall purpose of that is so one day every cell phone user on the face of the earth will use your app.”
“Having an app built is actually great advertising if you are clever. The app itself will usally pay it’s self off in advertising value. Like they say you can’t please everyone. You certainly can’t explain everything so everyone is going to understand. However, the best thing to do is consider, that if you want people to use your app. You have to paint the picture to them. The human mind tends to fill in blanks with information that isn’t true. The more informed they are the more they know. We don’t want an audience that is acting on partial information. ”
