As presented by Matteo Doni at DroidCon Dubai 2016 and March of the Droids 2016. A long walk through Skyscanner's recent history as a mobile first business, and how the industry is changing so much that messaging and platforms, or apps within apps, may soon replace the traditional notion of 'native' and app stores completely.
The idea of digitizing your high-value training materials may seem like a daunting task. But in fact, there is a road of best practices that you can follow to make it seamless. The key is to start small – perhaps with PDFs and securely delivering them – and work up to interactive material with analytics so that there is a continuous improvement of content. Just do this one step at a time.
This webinar will provide easy-to-understand insights on:
The steps to take to go from print and PDFs to more interactive content with analytics
Best practices for securely distributing your training content
How to engage your learners with your high-value training content

The conversation is no longer about mobile web vs mobile app, Android vs iOS, but about how to leverage each device and each platform's individual nuances to create a multi-device, multi-platform product ecosystem.
What does it take to build a successful product and what does a product need in order to be “sticky”? This presentation addresses these questions through the learnings of the past four years of offering inclusion for everywhere, everyone,…and every device at Groupon.
Underlying this is understanding the key behaviors of users on each device. For instance, a mobile website might get a lot of first time users whereas a mobile app might tend to have a more loyal repeat-user base. This means on mobile web finding ways to minimize the effort, be it by eliminating unnecessary logins or distracting functionality, may play an important role.
This presentation will consider the key factors that ensure the success of the device/medium individually and within the larger ecosystem.
Trends are the natural changes in behaviours or proceedings. We like to be aware of those indicators for inspiration and guidance. At the beginning of every year we look at UX, UI trends and emerging technologies to get that guidance from.
