Mobile development is developing by leaps and bounds. Now, for many entrepreneurs, the development of a mobile application has become a profitable and relatively quick entry into the market. It does not need to rent a room, purchase products, or spend money on staff. The main thing is the high-quality development of mobile applications, which can be provided by professionals.
Before you run out to order the app that will change the world, check out the upcoming trends to immediately become a top player in the market.
Foldable or flexible smartphones
If you look at the forecasts of experts, then in the next 5 years we will see a real boom in flexible smartphones. Making sure your apps run seamlessly on responsive devices is a challenging mobile app development trend in 2022-2023. That is, now we need to think not only about different screen resolutions but also about how the picture, video, and screens of your application will look on the folded and unfolded screen.
Virtual and augmented reality
This is not a completely new trend. But if in 2020 AR and VR had something like know-how and users perceived these technologies as an interesting novelty, now the trend is gradually transforming into a mandatory attribute. If a user downloads an application for choosing furniture for an apartment, especially from a manufacturer, he is already surprised, why can’t I see how the sofa will look in my living room? Augmented reality for business and the development of mobile apps must meet the requirements of users.
Mobile games and leisure
If you thought about creating an application that will generate income but does not want to get into something serious, create a toy for smartphones. However, do not make the main mistake of many creators – in order to satisfy requests for graphics and action games, they forget about the script. If the game is the same type, users will quickly stop playing it. The percentage of downloads will be high, but the reviews are so-so.
Super Apps
Recently, mobile development trends have been formed in Asia. One of them is Super Apps – multifunctional programs that cover several user needs. For example, Uber is a taxi, orders groceries, food delivery, and even financial services. That is, now the application should close not one pain of the client, but immediately a set of needs.
What apps will be the most popular in 2023?
We have tried to identify the most promising niches in the field of mobile applications, the relevance of which has greatly increased after the September events.
Travels
After the pandemic, people are trying to travel more, respectively, actively looking for flights, hotels, apartments for rent, taxis, and car rentals on the spot. Therefore, various aggregators and local applications that will help you navigate in a new country will be popular.
Finance
This is something that always worries people, especially when moving and traveling: how to transfer money, which card and how to get it, and where to change money for local currency. Here, applications related to cryptocurrency, money transfers, bank cards, and so on come to the fore.
Logistics
Continuing the topic of moving, applications for transporting things and animals will also be relevant. As well as services for renting warehouse space, for example, for storing things while away from the country or moving.
Education
Here we include all kinds of applications for learning a language, online translators, and applications for finding teachers. Everything is clear here.
Mental health
Many find it difficult to cope with this level of stress, and this is not surprising. More and more people turn to psychologists and begin to practice yoga and meditation. The application here will be a lifesaver, as it is cheaper than offline practices, and it is always at hand.
News aggregators
Checking the news feed has become an integral part of the life of even those who previously did not care much about the events in the world. News applications will become one of the leaders in downloads.
Conclusion
Despite the fact that applications from these categories will now be in demand much more than before, the competition for them will also not be small, which means that you will need to fight for a place at the top of search results.
