Why do you want to build a mobile app? Do you want to ride the wave of other entrepreneurs, or did you come across a problem that you feel you can resolve? The answer to this question will determine whether on-demand app will be successful or not.

Many mobile app development companies such as Matrix Marketers are into the development of on demand apps. However, it is not an easy task to track the real-world issues to build competitive on demand apps. But, the important part is to get started.

To make the development part simpler to you, Matrix Marketers is representing step by step guide to developing an on-demand app which can be ready to take off in the market with grand success.

Step 1: Get an idea or a problem. If you already have an App Idea, move onto step two. If not, read on. Want to build an app but don’t have an app idea? What you really need are problems, and they’re everywhere!

Successful entrepreneurs solve problems in a way that we could not have imagined. Almost every mobile app which you are using is a solution to a problem. You wanted to do global business faster, you got eCommerce. You wanted to switch over to mobile services, you got mobile apps.

So, look for problems in your daily life and list each one of them. Once you have figured out a list of things, then start to think about how you can resolve them and shortlist the ones that make the most sense.

Step 2: Identify the need. The validation process will decide the future of your well-planned app. Your idea can be checked by using the freeware tools to look for the number of people seeking out what you’re trying to do. A landing page elaborating the app idea can also be built and you can ask the users to give the feedback for the app via email.

Step 3: Lay out the flow and features. Validation of your app idea means that you’ve got something that people want to use. This would be the right time to detail your product onto a document.

When putting your idea down on paper, remember to be as detailed as possible. The document must clearly mention the flow to navigate the app as well as all the features envisioned. This will help your developer to clearly understand your expectations.

Step 4: Remove non-core features. From the flow and features document you prepared, start looking closely at features that you can remove. Offer only the core value of your app idea. Do not build features in the first version that are “nice to have” and can always be added later as an update. This will help keep the initial costs of development down and also help you get to market quicker.

Step 5: Put design first. The first choice of entrepreneurs is a basic design and features of the app Although, design plays an important role from the beginning.

Step 6: Hire a designer/developer. Seek a development company that has great design talent and a solid development team. During the hiring process, check the apps developed by the developer and also check the credibility of the apps. If you really liked an app they created from their portfolio, chances are, they could be the right one for your product.

Step 7: Create developer accounts. A developer account must be checked for registration with the respective app stores. Google’s Android charges $25 a year and Apple charges $99 annually. You have the option of registering as an individual or as a company if you already have one formed.

Step 8: Integrate analytics. Analytics help you track downloads, user engagement, and retention for your mobile app. It is better to use analytics tools which are free.

Step 9: Get feedback quickly and improvise. Once your app goes live on the app store, the first set of customers’ usage and behavior will give you insight into how to improve and enhance your app.

Step 10: Introduce features. The initial or beta version is built with limited features and only the core offering. Now is the time to evaluate and introduce the remaining features that were left out in the initial version. Analytics and feedback will show you the clear picture of features whether they are liked or not.

These steps are not compulsory, but rather a guideline to building your app in the most effective manner based on my experience. After completion when you are ready to launch your app, you must also know that building an app is the easiest part. Getting customers is where the challenge lies.
