1.5G Network

5G is the fifth generation of cellular technology. It is a successor of the 4G (LTE) network. It comes with high speed, reliability, network capacity, and response time. However, it still requires a 4G network to work. 5G is a wireless technology whereas 4G requires cell towers to transmit signals across distances.

Benefits of 5G network:

Low latency and high speed: 5G come with low latency between the source and destination. 5G provides an average of 130mbps speed whereas 4G provides a speed of 32mbps.

High flexibility: 5G has a high capacity, which makes it highly flexible and reliable compared to previous generations of the network.

High Reliability: 5G comes with more security and bandwidth compared to 4G, and hence it is more reliable than 4G and previous networks.

2. Mobile Wallets:

Mobile wallets are another innovation in mobile app development. Pandemics and lockdowns increase the demand for digital payments. Now applications such as google pay, amazon pay, and apple pay help us to pay digitally using the internet. These digital wallets also provide security and hence become the new trend in mobile application development.

Advantages of Mobile Wallets:

Easy and quick: Mobile wallets are quick and easy to complete transactions. In mobile wallets, you only need to link your bank account once and then you can make payments anytime using that.

Secured access: These wallets provide secured access to the users. However, it is always recommended to read the guidelines before using them to guard yourself against any security breach.

3. Augmented and Virtual Reality

Augmented and virtual reality is transforming the application development industry. Companies are looking to hire mobile app developers who are well-versed in AR/VR and artificial intelligence. So that these companies can pace themselves in the world of technology. Augmented and virtual reality technologies are emerging in industries such as retail, healthcare, education, training, gaming, sports, etc. There are different platforms for AR and VR application development. Unity 3D and Unreal Engine 4 are two famous platforms for VR application development, and Vuforia and ARCore are for AR app development.

Advantages of AR and VR:

Accessibility: AR and VR increase enhance the accessibility of applications by providing a seamless experience in the user interface and other crucial things.

Collaborations: It enhanced collaborations and teamwork in some industries, such as education, training, gaming, etc.

4. Internet of things

The Internet of things is one of the trending technologies in application development. The top 5 tools that can be used to create IoT applications are Azure IoT suite, Amazon web services, IBM Watson, Oracle IoT, and KAA IoT. Internet of things-based application is marking their footprints in various areas such as smart homes, retail, electronic healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing. Moreover, experts predicted that the count of connected IOT devices will be 16.44 billion by 2025.

Advantages of IOT:

High Efficiency: IoT saves time as less human effort is required with IoT devices. It improves the overall efficiency of this technology in application development.

Improved Customer Experience: The overall working of this technology depends upon IoT sensors, their connectivity, user interface, and data processing. Sensors collect data and send it to the cloud for further processing. Users of these devices experience the seamless flow of the interface.

5. Predictive Analytics

Predictive analysis uses statistics to predict the future. Some big giants, such as Netflix, are using predictive analysis. Netflix’s AI-based algorithms work behind the predictive analysis and would help them to take decisions in the future.

Predictive analytics helps artificial intelligence and data mining.

Advantages of Predictive Analytics:

It helps in diminishing the points of dissatisfaction and enhances the areas such as planning our campaign where we can increase our business.

6. Super Apps

Multipurpose applications are known as super apps. Some examples of super applications are Uber, WeChat, Zalo, Shopee, Momo E-wallet, Snapchat, and so on. Super applications are the applications that serve core features and other independent features in the form of miniapps.

Advantages of Super Apps:

Super apps have low development costs, and the capability to reach a wider audience with a better experience.
