Mobile APP
 Phone with good “Atma”
 A mobile app is a computer program designed
to run on mobile devices such as smartphones
and tablet computers.

Smart phone
 Powerful hardware that constitutes a SmartPhone.
 But hardware is certainly not the only factor ?
 A SmartPhone is the one that has a vast range of
applications (built-in) and supports plenty more
from the external apps markets.

Stay connected all the time, communicate and
collaborate over work

Prepare reports and share them with anyone anywhere in the
world

It doesn’t really matter where you are, Connected with Friends & Family

Mobile APP
 A mobile app is a computer program designed
to run on mobile devices such as smartphones
and tablet computers.
 “Free or not to be free” – that is the question?

Types of mobile app
 Native
 Web
 Hybrid

Native app
 Native apps are built for a specific operating
system
 Native apps live on the device and are accessed
through icons on the device home screen.
 Native apps are installed through an application
store.

Native app
 A native app is written in the programming
language specific for a platform, the most
popular being Objective-C or Swift for Apple
devices and Java for Android devices.
 They are developed specifically for one
platform, and can take full advantage of all the
device features

Native app
 They can tap into the wider functionality of the
device; including the camera, microphone,
compass and swipe gestures.
 Best graphics performance

Native app
 Camera
 Tourch
 Angry Birds
 Shazam
 Whatsapp
 Instagram
 Facebook

Web app

Web app
 A major challenge for developers of applications
is to create something that works on multiple
devices.

Web app
 Web apps are not real applications.
 They are really websites that, in many ways,
look and feel like native applications

Web app
 They are run by a browser and typically written in
HTML5.
 Users first access them as they would access any web
page.
 Features of HTML 5 - Advanced UI components, access
to rich media types, geolocation services & offline
availability.
 Runs on a standalone mobile web browser

Web app
“Write once, run anywhere”
 Web apps use JavaScript, CSS, HTML5
 You cannot distribute websites through app
stores.

Web app
 Hoodoomail
 News

Hybrid app
 Part native apps + Part web apps.
 Hybrid apps are also popular because they
allow cross platform development and thus
significantly reduce development costs: that is,
the same HTML code components can be
reused on different mobile operating systems.

Hybrid app
 Tools such as PhoneGap, Apache Cordova
and Sencha Touch allow people to design and
code across platforms, using the power of
HTML.

Hybrid app
 Salary oriented
 Why hire a developer for each platform when
you can hire one developer and target all of
them through HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Which one?
 Which mobile platforms do you wish to target?
 Do you want to distribute your application via app
stores?
 Are you looking to utilize the capabilities of the mobile
device?
 What are the technical abilities of your development
team?
 Does the one-size-fit-all approach of hybrid really live
up to its promise?

Mobile Store
List of mobile software distribution platforms

App stores
 More like warehouses
 One-stop distribution and management
 Meta data – search keywords
 Metrics on downloads

Mobile Application Development
Platform
 3 Categories

Cross Platform

MADP - Cross
 Separates build environment from target
environment.
 Platform-independent API using a mainstream
programming language like JavaScript, Ruby or
Java.
 The cross-compiler then transforms the code into
platform-specific native apps.

MADP - Cross
 PROS:
 Improved performance and User Experience.
 Full access to functionalities of underlying mobile OS and
device specific capabilities.
 CONS:
 Highly complex as cross-compilers are difficult to program.
 Need to be kept consistent with fragmented mobile platforms
and operating systems available.

Android Development

Android Development
 Programming languages - Java, C++ and C.
 Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
available- Eclipse and Android Studio
 Cost - Free.

Android Development
 The extension – apk.
 Cross Platform Deployment – Android only.

IOS Development
 Programming languages : Objective-C and
Swift.
 Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
available- Xcode, AppCode.
 Cross Platform Development – Only IOS
devices.
 Installer Packaging Options - Only via App
Store, needs review and approval by Apple

IOS Development
 Extension - ipa
 Cost - Apple tools are free for an Intel-
based Mac. Simulator testing is free, but
installing on a device needs a fee for a
developer signing key.

IOS Development
iPhone iOs 1-9
AppleTV iOS 4-9
Apple Watch
Ipod

Windows Development

New Tech
 Every mobile operating system provides their
own set of tools and environments to develop
apps that will run on them. Application made
for one operating system cannot run on any
other platform as they are entirely different.

PhoneGap

PhoneGap
 PhoneGap is a free and open source
framework that allows you to create mobile
apps using standardized method.

PhoneGAP
 Lower cost
 Lack of support for native UI components,
design patterns & development tools.
 Different JavaScript files on each platform for
PhoneGap itself and plugins
 No native UI support and No built-in support
for push notifications

Titanium

Titanium
 Single source codebase written in JavaScript, compiled into native
code and packaged for different target platforms.
 Does not use browser engine to render user interface on mobile
devices.
 Native code output very quick and fluid on the phone.
 Easy setup and startup for developers.
 Support for desktop and tablet development

Sencha

JAVA
 OOPs
 Core JAVA only
