Mobile App Development Trends In 2021 | Mobile Information 2021 | Part 01

 

Mobile apps are invaluable innovations that have changed the way we work, shop, and communicate. Mobile apps have evolved over the years, bringing new trends and changes every year.

During 2019 and 2020, many technological advances such as Internet of Things (IoT) technology, artificial intelligence (AI), cloud-native apps, virtual and augmented reality, 5G connectivity, etc. have affected the mobile development environment.

In this post, we review the technology trends that will impact mobile development after 2021.

1. Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR and VR)

After launching ARCore by Google and ARKit by Apple, AR app development based on Android and iOS is gaining momentum. There is a growing demand for AR and VR applications in all industries including healthcare, retail, education and travel. Mobile apps that utilize these technologies provide an enhanced user experience that helps businesses increase their sales.

2. Internet of Things (IoT)

As the number of mobile devices increases, many opportunities are created for IoT technology. IoT is a network of internet-connected devices that provide users with automated control and convenience.

Smart home technology is an example of the growth of mobile app development and IoT. You can use the mobile app to adjust the temperature of your home or office from a remote location, lock or unlock doors, and connect to refrigerators and home security systems.

3. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Chatbot

AI and machine learning are expected to take mobile app development to a new level in 2020. Integrating mobile apps with AI can automate routine tasks to improve user engagement and significantly reduce business costs.

Additionally, chatbots are changing the way businesses interact with customers through mobile phones. Chatbots allow mobile app services to quickly respond to customer requests. These requests include food delivery services, transportation services, and online shopping.

4. 5G technology in 2021

5G technology is 100 times faster than 4G networks, and the speed is expected to reach 100 Gbps. With the use of new radio frequencies, 5G technology is expected to drive standard data transmission to 1.4 billion devices worldwide over the next five years.

5G technology is designed for compute-intensive apps such as augmented reality, virtual reality and 4K video streaming. Developers can leverage 5G to create designs and features that enhance business performance in a variety of industries.
