Google revealed a fresh Q feature called Bubbles within its Android Q beta release bundle.  Android Q Bubbles is a new implementation that helps multitask and re-engage with apps. It is called Bubbles because of its design which is made it look like floating bubbles on the screen. Besides the intuitive and appealing design, it lets you tap on them to view and interact with different kinds of content, all while keeping intact the primary app or activity which are important for your daily use.

The basic intention of Bubbles in Android Q does not differ from the other bubble implementations we saw in applications few years back. Its presence within Android’s native system-level tool is done primarily with the goal to help other apps utilize it easily as well and eliminating the need to come up with their own code, besides creating a consistent, privacy-conscious standard for the interface as part of that.

Bubbles within Android is designed to create lot of time-saving, experience-enhancing possibilities in terms of your daily application usage. Your favorite messaging apps which bring to you frequent notifications, be it a simple talking/texting apps or Slack-like collaboration tools that could give you the option to receive certain incoming messages as bubbles which makes it easier to interact from within a mobile screen without letting you have to compromise much with the operations of your actual app and stop whatever important might be going on in your device. This can be acheived with the best React Native Application development features.

Based on the operations of other applications around you Bubbles can let you manually pop out any non static conversation after which you can place the bubbles anywhere you want on your screen which can help you maintain a fast, easy and ergonomically optimal way to open it up and interact with them as per your various needs and requirements using an efficient team of dedicated developers.

Besides applications, the Bubbles system could also be used to provide quick access to in app utilities like the calculator, stopwatch or lets say a Google Keep note within which you are maintaining a journal besides doing other things on your phone or maybe glancing through a eCommerce website whose wishlist you are looking to update occasionally without the need to  keep it open full time. It could be used in similar style to make use of translation tools, task lists, recipes, directions, or almost any essentials.

Obviously, the Bubbles feature is not optimized for every application usage and it does not serve the purpose serve as a standard setup for every kind of notification or action within your phone. Google keeps a note of the fact that bubbles should be used only for things that are important enough to require ongoing access with respect to your daily requirements or whenever a user explicitly requires a feature to open up in the environment. Hence it provides us a way for any user to opt-out of using bubbles at any point of time and any specific area, so that you are never compelled to use any feature in within the department. Subtle development capability of Flutter helps you achieve it.

But in the correct scenario, the Android Q’s Bubbles system could lay the groundwork for a form of multitasking that blend very well within the smartphone realm and is an essential way of interacting with multiple apps simultaneously without having experience the desktop-like idea of splitting your screen in half in order to focus on multiple things which isnt practical for the small mobile screen version of things especially in the absence of proper backend development procedures.

Android Q Bubbles gives developers tons of opportunity to implement its features with the applications and is capable of changing the ways in which an application interacts with a user.

As one of top android app development company, we at BrainMobi look to implement the most updated trends of this segment for your applications. Our team of developers are well updated with the latest trends in the business and have mastered the ins and outs in order to deliver it to the best standards of accuracy.

The look and feel of your mobile application plays a more crucial role in terms of sales and increasing downloads. It describes the the visual quotient of your app and in many cases proves to be a better factor for engagement then the overall USP or technology behind it. When aiming towards the general populous, your applications look is what communicates the personality to those who are not that tech savy or acquainted with the tech outputs of a particular application.

Nevertheless, any top mobile app development company in USA, should also be able to give you UI/UX solutions pertaining to the business purposes of your applications and assist to overall growth. Let us check a few principles in regard to UI we give close attention to and has helped our clients during our endeavours in mobile and web application.

Native Look Preserved For Each Platform

While hybrid and cross platform development at its best is the most apt solution in terms of gaining business growth, this should not let you discourage from the fact that the UI is compromised for the particular platforms. iOS applications and Android differ a great deal in terms of UI and it is important to bring out the best features out of both platforms.

With the kind of development abilities on the desk it is possible to bring out unique features of each platform without compromising much with the development routines. Enhanced development solutions with Flutter enable custom UI development routines within the same codebase and this does not compromise with the native UI characteristics of each platform.

Style And Minimalism

Advertising and maintaining a proper marketing channels should be a priority for each application keeping in mind the monetization principles behind an application. A skilled and experienced UX designer should be able to bring out the best functionalities for an application without creating much of a clutter and yet not compromising with the primary principles behind the application.

Once you are able to achieve this, then you are able to generate a good number of users following which you are able to incorporate advertisements within your application in a sophisticated and organized manner. All of this is owed to the artistic credibility in combination with knowledge of the most updated tools.

Voice UI

Best of its kind UI/UX is one important reason that caused Blackberry to step down as the best selling product and let Apple smartphones take that position. Any revolution that beats the current trends will cause a sharp shift in trends and leave app developers in quest for the latest sophistication.

While technology has a huge role to play in this segment but considering the progress, we shall soon see a trend where UI/UX has more minimality in the visual front. Voice assistants will dominate a greater part of all your applications. They are aimed at relieving your mobile phones free from hand/eye coordination and focus more on your ears and voice. This will make your applications more proactive and help reduce decision fatigue better than ever.

Purposeful Animation

Adding animation into your applications increases your engagement factor to a great deal and easily gives a staunch personality to your application. Applications hesitate from incorporating this and isn’t much required in basic service applications. This is because it might cause your applications to slow down and cause a compromise with your primary purposes.

Having said that, any animation incorporated within the UI is always a symbol of confidence on the part of the web development process and besides having a funky look you can take that as a token of assured quality. Any experience delivery application or be it a online marketplace for a particular brand communicates its intended essence using such out of the box factors.

Improved Colours , Gradient And Blaze

Mobile Applications in these days are able to deliver a fantastic rendition of colors which are now visible as wallpaper trends on any modern smartphone. In a way it is the definition of modern hardware and anything less than that might give a non progressive impression to your applications.

Gradient 2.0 is very subtle and simple and gives a UI designer a good deal of independence when it comes to delivering aesthetic impressions through depth and dimension. Such effects have been proved significant when it comes to increasing sales for entertainment and in specific music applications. It surely the trend that defines the present and is a must have if you are looking to catch up with the current trends.

As one of the top flutter app development company in USA, we at BrainMobi leave no stone unturned when it comes to being a definition of the current market trends. Our development routines combined with knowledge of the proper understanding of latest platforms like Flutter help us bring out the best UI feels to the native standards of an Android or an iOS.

Google and Android are constantly looking forward to devise new way and methods to improve user experience and it is this drive that will bring about an achievement in the trends of android application development. These are highly crucial when looking to start a new programmers for your custom application development project will have to bear the following trends in mind in order to stay relevant with the upgrades and evolution.

As one of the Top Android Application Development Company, we at BrainMobi have taken several successful endeavors that field and are keen share a few insights on how this track evolves,

Growth Of Google Instant Apps

Google has made some heavy integration efforts with the android operating system and the android tech support is the reason why their instant app vision shall be manifested soon on the platform. Latest Android versions like Android 5.0 (API Level 21) and Android 8.0 (API Level 26) are already running this latest feature. This particular innovation allows smartphone users to access and explore applications on the playstore without installing them on devices. With just a tap users can take an exhibit of fast, high performing, beautiful and smooth working applications without worrying about the storage spaces to be occupied.

Google Pay Integrations

Performance flaws were noticed in the google wallet and android pay following which fresh improvements were made to the native payment gateway of android commonly known as google pay in today’s date. This traditional payment system across new and existing mobile applications that is destined to have an impactful future. Google pay is secure and an easy payment gateway for android users to pay for inapp and tap to pay purchases. Payment methods such as a credit card or paypal attached to their google accounts can simultaneously pay for other mobile for any other mobile purchase without fuss. The integration of google pay with any pre existing android app is a trend everyone is waiting to see anxiously.

Chatbot Android Apps

Any business enthusiast or techie will surely tell you how important an era chatbots shall dictate in the days to come ahead. Any industry or business which relies heavily on messaging and frequent communication with clients will always be looking to harness the power of chatbots to the ensure the maximum out of their functionality and have a better sales experience. More than that chatbots will seek a close reliance with social media and that is the next go to thing people look forward for. Crucial services that require very less effort like booking hotel room or managing a queue are in line to implement to harness chatbot using custom android development models. Such distinct features can always lead to seamless integration of their business needs.

Android Trends

Dawn of the Kotlin Era

The new language Kotlin is the perfect fit for developing applications that constitute to a wonderful experience for Kotlin to be a official programming language for Android. The new language seems to be the perfect fit for applications that demand a standout experience at the users end. All features of the modern programming language are swiftly combined with Kotlin while the development extensions of android imply that developers can fully stretch their strengths to build feature rich and crisp running applications. As for any android application development project, the corresponding company shall need to adopt kotlin for its custom codes.

Improved Security

Improved features of the android operating system have already thrilled by the exciting features and its smooth sailing app development and deployment experience. Approximately 700000 applications were ousted from google play store in 2017 itself for various reasons and google will be keen on maintain its surveillance standards. Above this the API integration required for crafting such applications which will help google spot these applications which do not even deserve a single installation. All of this simply means that android developers will have to ensure better records in developing safe and secure applications in order to develop secure and robust mobile applications.

Increase of on Demand Native Apps

Android applications are reputed for getting a load of work done in a span of very less time. This trends ensures that android developers with android tech support will be spending more time on finding solutions to genuine problems like booking a taxi booking even facilities, hiring working personnel, requesting food delivery and even hiring android programmers. In short the problem and situation solving capacity of android applications shall pave the demands for more and more android applications.

Blockchain

The evolving trends in technology caused a transition which allowed people to gradually come accustomed with the blockchain method of things. There are lot of disruptors but a majority of the analysis suggests that android will have a huge pull in the industry. Blockchain wallet is a mobile application used to send and receive digital coins has managed to gather over one million downloads in the app store. According to reports there are almost a 21 million blockchain wallet users worldwide in 2017. There are already a thousand blockchain applications in the app store and as industries begin to understand the importance, they will continue to rise. The initiative of using blockchain for developing more viable and secure apps is a trend everyone will choose to keep pace with.

When it comes to making the choice of a development framework, it can be a really trick decision to make considering the intricacies and complexities of a particular mobile application. On top of that when business needs evoke the question of platform concerns, it can be next level tricky to decide whether to hit a cross development or a native development procedure.

As one of the top react native application development company we at BrainMobi have undertaken several successful attempts that enable us to scratch the perfect development strategy to bring your mobile application to life. Having said that we shall let you know we harness the best out of the react native framework and how it enables our developers to create standout applications.

Community Driven

React Native was a community driven platform starting right from its creative process as it originated from a hackathon effort in response to the need from the developer community. The idea originated from the need to combine the advantages of mobile app development along with the power and agility of the native react environment. The considerable advantages that come with the options of a community driven environment is the availability of a huge team of enthusiastic JS and Native Developers whose catalogs of freely available components let you come up with various constructive exercises within the code building process.

Modular and Intuitive Architecture

Besides having a great community contribution the modular and intuitive architecture makes it easy for developers to examine and exercise changes on someone else’s project. This increases efficiency and communication within the development team and makes it easier to create updates, upgrades or address changes resulting from the testing process as well. This also gives testers the advantage of consuming less time when it comes to building test case scenarios and understanding the programming logic.

react js

Live Reload

React Native too pays great emphasis on reacts philosophy of allowing you to create powerful applications. Something that is not present in most of the native frameworks but makes a crucial constituent of the react native environment is the Live Reload feature. It enables you to immediately see the result of the latest changes you made in the code. This enables developers to experiment and unknowingly conduct the testing process. It also saves a lot of individual time and effort adding to the coders efficiency.

Strong Performance Standards For Mobile Environments

The React Native architecture is specifically well tuned for mobile device environments. While native platforms are more intensive on the part of the CPU or central processing unit, react native also makes use of the GPU or the graphics processing unit. Compared to hybrid technologies which used to be the only cross development option in the past, react native is comparatively super fast.

Code Reusability Which Follows Time And Cost Saving

React Native enables you to use the same code for deployment on ios and  android framework. This amplifies your business process greatly as it assists a lot to saving time as well as effort incase you are trying to target ios and android users simultaneously. In most of the cases for any application almost 90% of the code is reusable but in subtle cases where specifics of the device are to the exhibited you might be required to incorporate some extra changes. This is still very less compared to the process of separately writing codes for the both.

Our several disciplined practices and exercise in versatility enable us to come up with a lot of business tactics besides just technology and we wish to deliver our clients every bit of support in regard to the best fate of their mobile applications. As one of the top mobile application development company, we at BrainMobi are well versed with all the knowledge that comes out at a result of our experience and at the same time are vested with energy or fresh innovative coding talent.

At the same time it was an exhibit of its technological smartness which outclassed several business apps and individual app building attempts in a snap. This could be an indication of the fact that the future of android shall dictate some new norms in the mobile application ecosystem.

The several innovations and new features set out to be incorporated in the system is also an indication of the kind of research and progress that shall be accomplished with future research to come. As one of the best android app development company let us expand to you its effects on the app marketplace which shall help you take the smartest step toward your app building process.

Smarter Hardware

With the google pixel all set to give its competition to apple devices, it is equipped with all the perfect elements to enhance the qualities of android to its fullest. On top of that Google has already conceptualized other wearable hardware devices like the smart glasses which shall be the apt replacement for the google lens besides paving the way for other features like Augmented and virtual reality. Other software features like the text scanner and facial recognition system would also hit its best experience under the guise of the smart glass which is not a concept but an actual prototype.

Agile Mechanisms

The best benefit comes with the fact that any efficient development strategy in turn assists in the business strategy as well and yields some sharp marketing targets. Agile app development methodologies are the need of the moment as well as the future as they contribute to making your business more agile. With several innovations witnessed at google i/o 18, android applications are capable of delivering some new breed of functionalities which are potential of entirely new breeds of business. Considering the competition involved, and if you are looking forward to get yourself an application, quick deployment will be a major concern in order to pitch your business perfectly.

Android App Development Process

Intuitive UI and High Engaging Factors

Whether it’s the concept of the application developer or technical brilliance on the part of the developer, the future of android applications shall demand a hell lot of simplicity and minimalism when it comes to communicating their functionality. With advanced features like voice assistants, machine learning (already implemented in the android p) and AI, android shall demand the next level of automation and easy interaction in its upcoming future. The integrated AR features in the google map is an indication of the kind of product integrations that android applications might see in the future.

Language Inputs

Inputs in machine learning have enabled smartphone information processing and have better reading and comprehension abilities than ever before. This shall enable applications that be able to process strings as data. This isn’t just restricted to content within the system but also any piece of information printed can be processed and treated via the sophisticated google lens which is due to come out in the pixel series. This shall be a great assist to educational applications and when it comes to addressing language barriers.

New APIs

Google APIs have assisted plenty of mobile applications. To the delight of application developers, google is offering three new APIs which shall give the creative space to sketch more mobile apps. This also means newer apps.

Face Detection, Text Recognition and Image Labelling are the three new ones which can be implemented in various categories like Dating, Beacons, Security, Education, Social and what not.

Cross development approach for your business requirement can be quite a tricky situation considering the vast amounts of facts and myths surrounding the areas of native and hybrid models of application development. While native development approach might surely be the pick for quality, application aspirants do fear lagging behind the consumer traffic when trying to approach one quality at a time. As one of the best cross platform application development company, we at BrainMobi aims to bring the best hybrid development solutions for your application projects. Considering the specific set of advantages every different cross platform exhibits, let us present to you a vivid comparison of the best three frameworks in practice which in turn shall give you a clear understanding when moving ahead with your decisions:

Single Code Base Usage

The preference of a cross development framework is reduce the development effort and making a choice between flutter, cordova and react native will rely heavily on which serves this particular task the best.

Cordova:

Cordova was built on the claim “write once, run anywhere” and is believed to be more authentic than any other frameworks that deliver the same. This can be attributed to the fact that Cordova makes good use of the HTML5, CSS3 and javascript for app development. Above that it is also possible for cordova to wrap an existing web application into a native android or iOS application. Such a amount of flexibility and simplicity can greatly minimize the effort of creating an applications for multiple platforms.

React Native:

React Native mostly follows the philosophy of “learn once and write anywhere” which is not to be confused with the write once run anywhere feature. But despite of that, development practices has suggested that almost 85% of the javascript code across any mobile platform. Still when considering to implement it over a larger volume of many different projects, it might not be the apt choice but is preferred by developers when hitting a single huge sized project. However cases when same UI elements are are required in its native guise for a specific platform, it demands a native approach.

Flutter:

Flutter too is capable of developing some high-performance and high-fidelity applications for iOS and Android from a single code base. It although has a very different architecture and unlike javascript the choice of language is Dart and that also assists in reducing the volume of code written. Several examples can be found in flutters official github repository. The object oriented mode also contributes primarily to the single code base capabilities of flutter.

Build Performance

While Cordova might fare better in quick development, when compared to React Native, it does compromise in the applications performance. Unlike applications build with react native, those build using Cordova are web applications wrapped in web view.

Cordova:

Webs wrapped in a webview are puts a lot of constraints on the applications that can developed and the corresponding complexity. Javascript is essentially single threaded and that brings out issues of sluggish animations and poor responsiveness in the UI in comparison to the standards present.

React Native:

React Natives brilliant architecture loads the same javascript code in a lesser performance load time. It does this by executing the code in its inherent thread which is separated from the main and layout threads. Not only this but linkage between react components and native views contributes to the applications performance. This also imposes far fewer limitations in comparison to the web view approach adopted by cordova.

Flutter:

Compared to the usual rates of 60 fps for react native and cordova, Flutter is capable of operating at better rate of 120 fps for devices capable of exhibiting 120Hz. And it isn’t simply the construction but by enabling the performance overlay you can diagnose performance problems better by monitoring the UI and GPU threads better.

Flutter App Development

Platform Support

Besides the advantage of building applications for several OS it is also important to consider the version support offered by the framework your are looking to choose. For example react native was incompatible for a large time for iOS 7 while it might have received its updates.

Cordova:

Cordova made its entry before react native and that brings with it a lot of advantages compared to react native which adds to its domination in the cross platform market. This gives rise to some maturity related advantages like:

    •  Wide Range of Plugins
    • Extensive knowledge base
    • Plentiful Documentation ranging from basic to advanced use of the solutions
  • Large code base of experienced developers

React Native:

React Native too is a very mature platform but not at the same level as cordova stands in. The platform does offer its documentation and receives a lot of community support but it isn’t as extensive as the one offered by Cordova. Above that react native relies heavily on component libraries and adds another brick to the maturity issue as many of the libraries are still underdeveloped. This also adds a lot of variables to the components which adds to the difficulty to the developers.

Flutter:

Flutter is best suited for applications that demand a brand-first design type project regardless of whether it is iOS or Android. But it is equally equipped for applications that require a stock platform approach as well. The flexible system that Flutter preaches enables the use of platform-specific APIs whether available in the form of Java/Kotlin Code for android or objectiveC/swift code in iOS. This is best suited to support maintenance costs and lower app development projects as it uses a single set of libraries for all your UI.

Debugging Capabilities

Cordova:

Cordova comes with a great documentation which guides you on the hows of creating a suitable environment for debugging. Although it is not inbuilt with any set of tools but it lets you configure and use any existing tools that might be implementable. Some of which are Safari’s Web Instructor with remote debugging for iOS and Chrome Dev Tools with remote debugging for android. These tools are enough to easily identify network, javascript without repeating the entire instance of rebuilding your app and conducting a trial and error.

React Native:

The Chrome developer tool is can be used for debugging the javascript code of react native code remotely. Where they lack is the ability to drill through the component hierarchy structure of react. The react developer tools extension of chrome also gives you the ability to drill. Considering this ability react native applications have been converted into a stand alone application for react native projects.

Flutter:

Flutter framework provides the best debugging support for your application by making use of the flutter analyze function which will test your dart code in order to help you find the best possible mistakes. The Flutter enabled Ide/editor makes this process more automated. The Dart analyzer also makes use of type annotations that make it quicker and less painful compared to a react native or Cordova.

As one of the top flutter application development company, we at BrainMobi make a thorough research of all the platforms and the advantages they offer. Our experienced and efficient team of developers have the ability to make the best choice of framework as applicable from the demands of any application.

The post 5 Reasons Why Developers Are Migrating From Java to Kotlin appeared first on Mobile App Development | BrainMobi Blogs and News.

]]>
When android application development is the mission, the immediate go to language that springs out for any developer is Java. Why Android went forward to pick Java is a purely a matter of development concern and note should be taken of the fact python, Lua and Javascript and all of them had their own advantages of execution and were potential choices besides java.

One potential factor that helped android bring the best out of Java was the Dalvik Virtual Machine (DVM) which is responsible for running the applications just like the Java Virtual Machine. Its expectations to run on different mobile architectures and requirement of a different source code portability could be met best using JAVA. The runtime achieved was the closest thing that could simulate the JVM environment and in our perspective that’s one potential reason for the adoption of Java.

So while Android made all its successful progress using JAVA, a twist in the story popped up when Oracle (the creators and owners of Java) hit a staggering $9 Billion lawsuit on Google for violating a few of its terms and guidelines. Causes for conflict are fairly subjective and technical on legal grounds and above all they dont matter now. Because not only did Google win the lawsuit but went forward to create its own independent programming language thereby eliminating any sort of dependency on third party, in this case Oracle.

This is where Kotlin was born. This was around 2011 and in 2017, on the occasion of Google I/O 2017, Google announced Kotlin as the official programming language for Android. Considering how ambitious Google is with its android projects, it is evident that their in house production (meaning Kotlin) would be equipped with the best features and methods in concern to their needs.  As one of the top android application development company, we can easily lend the advice that Kotlin will be the goto language for any android developer and let us give you 5 compelling reasons why kotlin could be the perfect switch from java in the current time.

Interchangeability with Java

As a potential alternative to java, one of its key strength is the level of interoperability with Kotlin. This is a great boon for pre-existing java developers has their doubts of switching are resolved with advantages of easy switches. Java and Kotlin codes can exist side by side in the same or different project and everything will still compile perfectly. On top of that being a java developer and an aspirant Kotlin developer you can make the practice of making small trails with Kotlin coding for specific parts of your project written entirely in Java and vice versa. And this also lets you import certain java libraries as well.

Bottom Line: Switching is not that difficult

Functional and Procedural Programming Combined

Based on the target and final picture, certain programming paradigms can have certain strengths and weaknesses. Functional programming exercises its advantages over several scenarios where procedural programming might not level and similarly procedural programming has its own pros over functional paradigms. While making a choice between procedural and functional can be a very tricky choice for any project leader, Kotlin comes to the rescue by combining elements and concepts from both paradigms and letting you improvise accordingly.

Bottom Line: Alternative is more versatile

app development process

Cleaner and Concise Code

Being a newer language Kotlin has a comparatively more succinct, compact and precise code compared to the same written in Java. And this eventually leads to lesser bugs and hence easy testing. It is also a developers favourite as it is known to reduce a lot of boilerplate code which gives the developer a room to give more focus to other parts within the code. Kotlin android extensions also let you import the reference to a View into an activity file, which lets you work with the view in a manner that it was the part of the activity itself.

Bottom Line: Aids in Testing

Android Studio Support

The Android Studio is based on an IDE that goes by the name of IntelliJ created by a company called JetBrains. JetBrains is also the creator of Kotlin. So obviously they had intentions of creating something new in a way that pre existing methods could easily adopt to it. As a result Android Studio has some excellent support for Kotlin. Now configuring Kotlin is a matter of a few menus. The Kotlin plugin for android studio makes it very easy for your IDE to understand, compile and run the code.

Bottom Line: Easy Adaptation

 Already an Industry Standard

There are already many well known companies that have started using Kotlin for their core deployments. Renowned art and photography hosting site pinterest has all its latest android features and upgrades written down in Kotlin. Basecamp went on to shift the entire 100% of its code to Kotlin. Trello, Amazon, Netflix and Uber are some other renowned examples that have adapted to its technique.

Bottom Line: The Switch has already Begun

As per marketing research smartphone users are estimated to double its sales and reach a figure of 2.5 billion users in 2019 from an initial 1.5 billion in 2014. Google and iOS are the leading OS systems in the world of smartphones out of which android leads the way with a staggering 80% of the entire of the entire smartphone users. It is also approximated that a figure of almost 180 billion apps were downloaded in 2015 alone. c Be it any industry vertical or any market sector like e-commerce, gaming, education and entertainment, mobile applications will constantly be in the conveyor. As one of the top mobile application development company, we at BrainMobi always make a constant check of the upgrades and evolution in the field of development and what kind of apps are in the trend when it comes to dominating the market.

Mobile Finance Service Apps

Cashless transactions and online modes of payment is one standout convenience factor that mobile applications have provided to us. Paytm, Tez (google), Apple Pay, Mobikwik and Alipay are some great examples that have proved to be a reliable industry standard. Be it any scale of transaction, mobile payment gateways are slowly rendering paper money as an obsolete method and bringing an overall change to the system. Following payment methods, online payment options also started allowing money transfers within bank accounts as well. Applications like Kyepot and Moneytap have set some good standards and have paved the way for others applications to be conceptualized as well. With innovations being carried out in better security features mobile payment applications will be capable of delivering better convenience factors. Hence it can be easily assessed that Mobile Finance Service Apps or integrations will be in practice in the upcoming future of mobile application development.

Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality

AR showed a small exhibit of its performance on the tech market as early as 2016 with the creation of pokemon go on the iphone 6S. Despite the so many technical shortcomings pokemon go managed to amass 800 million downloads and paved nintendo’s way to be a dominant player in the gaming market. With Apple’s latest ARkit SDK and corresponding features like the measure app and what not have opened a wide variety of possibilities for developers to experiment around. The upcoming hardware upgrades such the dual lens camera could be an implementation to support the AR wave. This could be a boost for gaming and entertainment sectors and a great time to place their investments on. It should also be kept in mind that post august mega internet speeds upto 1gbps shall be available to the several households in India and this could be quite the amplification factor a technology like AR would require.

Advanced Security

According to a research published from Gartner, over 75% of the million applications on the app store are not able to pass security tests and possess various kinds of threats to application users. Such flaws in mobile applications can always lead hackers to crucial and confidential information of any mobile application user. With the rise of several emergent technologies, it is evident that new flaws and loopholes will originate. This turn would require new security features and systems to not let hackers carry out any malicious practices could harm the user. Lack of proper security systems is what stops an application from implementing more crucial functionalities which might be playing around data or finance.

AMPs and Web Apps

Web Applications and Accelerated Web Pages were introduced by google in 2016.  Web Apps were build with the intention of letting users explore more applications by giving them the freedom and ease to open an application in the browser itself. Having done that any user can access all the functionalities of the application and experience it the way it would in a smartphone as well. It also uses the standard HTML5 components which makes it easy for developers to engage in this project. Accelerated Mobile Pages is an open source platform that allows anyone to create faster, easy to load and high performing web applications.

Wearables

Wearables be it in the form of headsets or smartwatches are all set to bring a new revolution to the world of technology. Besides the mentioned two, other hardware like the virtua x omni, and smart gloves are capable of undergoing some mind blowing integrations whose experiences will be appetizing and unique. Other than experiences, wearable technology in the form of smart watches can assist several  industry verticals and the most anticipated fitness and medical. Not only will it enable people to follow more healthier routines. Fitbits and smartwatches are efficient input devices and are capable of recording data unlike any level before.

As one of the best android application development company, we at BrainMobi put a lot of effort in anticipation of the upcoming market trends.

Kotlin is a new statically typed programming language brought to you by JetBrains. It is compatible with the Java Virtual Machine and is a great option besides Java. It is rapidly being brought for adoption by any top android development company of the world. Being a much more advanced language it is definitely equipped with better features and in a way can be considered what swift is to objective C. In other words, Kotlin for any good android app development company is exactly what swift is for any top iOS app development company.

Here are 5 advantages for Kotlin users:

1. Interoperability with Java:

One good and constructive feature of Kotlin would be its interchangeability and interoperability with Java. Not only does it help Java coders to progress to the Kotlin but you can have and compile both the languages. Java just being a primarily procedural language, Kotlin has both functional as well as procedural features which can be incorporated in its code. Combine this with a mature environment where IDE plugins run smoothly, it makes Android development quicker and easier.


2. Safer than Java:

Null Pointer exception has been a terrible tumour for every java user. And it is not just the null factor but Kotlin has comparatively fewer errors and less likely to fail to add to its stability. The code is concise, shorter. easy to read and clearer. All this at the end contributes a lot in the testing process as bugs are detected easily and fixed quickly too.

3. Open Source Feature:

Open Source is one important feature that has contributed to the success of apps like react native and swift and the corresponding platforms build on it. Its obvious Kotlin would follow this too. Not just this but Kotlin can convert any Java code into its Kotlin equivalent and this way the Java coders are not left behind with its open source community.

4. No Raw Types:

Raw types have the advantage of backwards compatibility but come with the burden of throwing a CastClassException that which pops up the error during execution and not the compiling stage. Kotlin is more generic and does not contribute to Raw types which helps to build more type-safe codes.

 

5. No Blocked Exceptions:

Java had the feature of blocked exceptions which caused barriers as the compiler forces the caller of a function to catch or rethrow an exception. This creates non-existent checked exceptions which are an annoyance for developers as they have to recheck the code to check out possible exceptions that never occurred. Kotlin takes this into consideration and eliminates Blocked Exceptions making is quicker and easier for coders.

What is the first thing you look when wake up in the morning? Yes ! it’s your mobile phone all decked with a bunch of notifications from installed mobile apps. That much power mobile apps hold to make us spent the first 15 minutes of our every day in shuffling through those app notifications. according to TouchPoints report, Adults use their phone for about 264 times a day, including texts and calling and this number increased to 387 for people within the age group of 15-24 which on average sums up to smartphone activity every other minute. This is not something surprising with an ever increasing production rate of mobile devices and mobile apps to run those devices. Nowadays, there are only two platforms which have occupied the whole market in unequal proportion is Android and iOS. Users keep on fluctuating between the two platforms as per their preferences from time to time.

After a thorough research, our team of top mobile app developers have found below trends and related facts that are going to be considered as prominent factors while developing successful mobile apps. In this blog, we have mainly focused Android platform and some of the latest trends of Android mobile app development, listed below:

1. Android Instant Apps

Instant Apps are going to revolutionise the way we use mobile apps with a quick way to access without installing the app on your mobile phone. It will become super easy to use mobile apps instantly like usual web pages. Moreover, you would not e required to download the full version only a part required can be successfully installed. It will surely help in systematically install apps required frequently and one time. Currently, instant apps are available for testing on Android 7.0 Nougat. But soon instant apps will be available to use on Android 4.0 and later. Undoubtedly, instant mobile apps hold a great potential to bring powerful stir across the digital world in terms of user experience and efficiency.

2. Android AI-assistant 

Artificial intelligence has been cropping up in many of our mobile apps either in form of chatbots or virtual assistants. However, that’s only the tip of the iceberg with much more incredible functionalities waiting to be explored by top mobile app developers and engineers. From shopping to gaming, top app developers are trying hard to bring AI based mobile solution more frequently in usage. Google has also been enhancing the ‘search’ using machine learning to provide the most relevant results based on previous search queries. Google has been evolving more and more advanced features where a user can experience more of AI based functionalities.

3. Android In-App Payments

Online shopping has already become an integral part of our lives. And why not when Online stores offer a wide range of products at different prices. Plastic money has become equally popular with such hike in online payments. With numerous advantages, it does not seem necessary to explain the advent of online payment across our everyday transactions. To carry out transactions from smallest to crucial in an instant, we all rely on mobile payment apps specially developed for users to make payments from their portal gadgets.

As experts predict, in coming time approximately half of all online transactions will be made through our mobile devices and even wearables like smartwatches. So, m-commerce is entering the golden era with digital money and online payment. Thus, budding entrepreneurs and business owners in order to avoid losing any leads have been continuously seeking ways to bring new online payment methods.

Android Pay is one of the prominent examples which offer more secure and advantages than Google Wallet. The core benefit of Google Pay lies in the ease with which it allows you to pay by simply unlocking your device. To use the functionality, your mobile device should be NFC-compatible and run on version KitKat 4.4 or later. Nowadays, developers have been integrating the functionality across mobile apps with ‘Buy with Android Pay’ button for hassle free transactions.

4. In-App Search

It is In-App search, another master stroke feature from Google to fascinate Android users with most relevant results when even you are not sure what you are looking for. This feature also helps you to find anything on your phone.  For now, the feature is available to use in popular apps like Gmail, Spotify, and YouTube. But soon this trend will be seen across other promising apps with more advanced capabilities. So, it would be wrong to mark In-App Search as one of the hottest Android app development trends this year.

Conclusion

Above mentioned trends have already been in news for making waves across mobile frenzy millennials and many more breakthrough trends could be seen before 2017 end. It could also lead to confusion in understanding such a diverse and quickly developing IT industry.
