In the list of more than 3 million Apps listed on the play stores, there is hardly 5% chance for your on-demand app to get succeeded. Honestly speaking getting the new innovative idea and developing new on demand app is challenging but the only way to survive in mobile development. Many mobile development companies such as Matrix Marketers are exploring every niche of the market to explore areas and services on which the apps can be developed.

In this post, we will discuss whether on demand apps are really worth the hype that surrounds them? Is it required or just a marketing buzz?

On-demand apps seem to have entered into almost every part of our lives and the moment we get up from a bed, our hands are on mobile phones. Gone are the days when an app was just a way to while away time while stuck in traffic or to simply switch off from the real world. This scenario supports the market of on-demand apps and ensures the permanence of on demand apps.

What actually is On-demand?

On-demand services are mobile apps for catering the need of daily life. They help lessen your burden and stick to your schedule. These apps can simply become your personal assistants if there is something you just don’t want to or can’t do by yourself. It works like this, hair-dresser the user simply installs the app and when there is a need, he refers to the application and the work is done! You refer to an app and off goes your car for a wash, there comes the hairdresser at your doorstep, there comes the meal of your choice and there arrives the cab right where you need it. All this happens right within a few clicks and many of the daily otherwise cumbersome tasks go easily happening.

What does it take?

Yet, of late, many of the so-called on-demand apps have been found to be nothing but a flop show with a lot of hype. There seems to be an artificial build up in most cases.

Over the years many such on-demand apps have made their highly awaited debut only to make an appearance and leave with uplifted glory. If you are planning to invest in an on-demand app then it is high time you spend a good amount of time in conducting a deeply rooted research on the goal of your decision to invest in such an app for your business.

Here’s the checklist which we go through while developing on demand apps:

Get to know your market: Most on-demand apps face a failure because of their inability to create a novelty, based on the requirement of the markets and unique business or brand needs

Work on the psychology of convenience: With the literal meaning of on demand app brimming out of its application, one can definitely understand the sort of magnanimity that envelopes the app development space. Convenience is what users look forward to and giving the user what they want is so outdated.

App Essentials: An app with ambiguity; in most cases that are what you get in the name of an on-demand app. The so-called on-demand apps usually lack the kind of simplicity they ought to have. Easy navigation combined with an easy, self-guiding structure seems to be amiss in most cases. An app must be beautiful to look at, insightful to work with and must carry out the mission of help and convenience to the users with utmost sincerity.

User Experience/User Interface: With apps becoming an integral part of our lives, most app developers and business owners tend to stuff in a lot within the realm of an app under the tag of an on demand app. What most of them tend to miss here is that extending a perfect user experience is what attracts a user and for this, a seamless user experience with user interface dynamics, combined to perfection will only help you cut that edge well.

With apps making a wave in the digital ocean, it has often been noticed that business owners invest heavily on the ‘on-demand app’ only face a setback with most of their users uninstalling the app within time frame ranging from 24 hours to 72 hours. This is mainly because business owners have simply used an idea from the past to revitalize it with outdated features. This, along with some heavy professional marketing tactics has been witnessed by many. Sadly, these are not what one expects out of an on-demand app that has a motto of making lives easier with every minute spent on the app.

On-demand apps have evolved remarkably and have changed the manner in which businesses operate and have changed the lives of consumers over the past few years. Be it food delivery, outsourcing or transportation- apps are now ingrained in our day to day fabric. It has been noticed that the on demand service apps have not seen a lot many innovations in the pipeline. This perhaps may have led to such superficial efforts. With an ever-growing demand for technology to assist in almost every field.

Conclusion:

On-demand apps have to be a part of your daily life, catering to almost all your needs. No doubt, on demand apps have revolutionized our lives but software agencies like Matrix Marketers really focus on building apps to deliver the services which are not thought before. After the extensive research, we decide to develop an on demand app. If you are having such a unique idea, you can approach us!
