The document discusses developing a mobile app called M-shop for shopping centers. It notes current apps lack advanced search and filtering and are often only for iOS. M-shop would include customer loyalty programs, engaging content, and feedback features. It would improve the customer experience through personalized navigation maps, store information, sales notifications, and a collage builder for planning purchases. Developing such a branded mobile app is presented as the best way for shopping centers to improve customer communication and loyalty.

basic features. Useful features are added in order to camouflage the lack of

need is missing from the majority of today’s mobile apps created for
shopping centers.

current trends in app development.
