Next Revolution: The Apple Watchkit

One can’t be available every time with their iPhone and to solve this problem Apple has come up with an Apple Watch which will take care of your iPhone Apps running in your phone without even taking that out of your pocket. Apple is trying best to start up with the new revolution in iOS Development. The company has already come up with its beta version of Watchkit that will be helpful to all the iOS Developers as it will be a pre access for them.

So let’s have a quick look on the Watchkit credentials.

The picture above give us the overview of the Watch kit and the steps which will help us to work accordingly.

Watch Kit App: A medium that will provide you with the home screen that will be available at your app data.

Glance: It provides the single screen interface without any interference control that will allow only one tap function to launch watch kit.

Custom Notification: The watch has an amazing feature known as custom interface that will display local and remote notifications when it will be attached with iPhone. One can even customize notifications by graphics, custom layout.

If you want to run third party app, it should be paired with iPhone and thus before creating any app for Apple Watch, one should have an iOS app ready by any iPhone application development company.

There are two separate bundles which are present in the Apple Watch specially created by Apple Watch known as Apple watchkit and Watchkit Extension.

The Watchkit app referred to the interface that to be shown on Apple watch whereas the Watchkit Extension has a code that runs on the companion iPhone to handle Watchkit App’s interaction with users.

An iPhone application development company which will work with the new Apple watchkit will have great opportunities for them knocking at their door steps. My suggestion is download X code 6.2 and start experimenting from today.

Role of Marketing in Promoting Mobile Apps

"When you start with what’s at stake for the buyer, you earn the right to their attention." -- Jake Sorofman. I feel these lines have weight, when it comes to promoting mobile apps. These days companies are using the standard tools to promote their apps with the help of social media where Yahoo and Google have their own versions of ads and after them facebook has become the major colonist of the ad world.  Posting blogs, analyzing about the products, bookmarking have become necessary facts in promoting the apps.

 There are thousands of applications which are running on Play store and App store and among these multiple apps, it gets difficult for the user to find out the accurate one they wanted to have. The responsibilities of developer are not till developing an application and announce it on the market place, the major point is promoting that application among the millions. Besides it is necessary to let people know that the application can be easily installed. Most of the Mobile Application Developers simply wait for the identification of their apps without any promotion through social media.  Doubtless, the role of marketing is essential in promoting the mobile apps but there are certain suggestions that are to be followed while promotion of application:

Mobile Application Development on any app should be done taking care that the app is exceptional and distinctive. A distinctive software will enlarge the downloads, will create a good impact on the downloader’s and will automatically increase the traffic. Unique designs and characteristics will lift the chance of creating it.

The user should have the brief description about the application so that they can easily understand the functionality of the app. Before publishing the app to the different stores, the developers can issue a trial version of an app which will be beneficial in increasing the rate.  The trial version should be created in a story form, as to make the user understand about the features of the app. This step will initiate the user in downloading the app and make it share with others as well. Website maintenance is the key point in promoting the application; with the help of website one can place banners, link exchange and optimization. The site should be unique, easy to understand and well designed as it will be the main stream for increasing the downloads of the app. The signal page website will be more than sufficient.
