Design Tricks for Successful Mobile Apps

Among the others, we at Redbytes, an established mobile app development company in India, regards the following 

5 design tricks as the most important ones that mobile app owners should notice in the year, 2016.

1. Design a Captivating onboarding Experience:

 There is a lot of significance in designing a well planned, valuable onboarding design. Your customers should get the main idea of your app clearly from this. You have to be specific, crisp, and honest in what you put inside the onboarding designs. A great onboarding experience can contribute to a deeper attachment from users towards the app.

2. A Clever App Icon: 

A common design mistake that is made by a lot of mobile app development companies is trying to replicate a popular app's icon. Pushing the entire designing step towards the end of the development process is another big mistake. It is very essential that you need to understand that an app icon is one of the first things that a potential user encounters in an app. Have a look at the most influencing and innovative icon designs before you try to carve out one for yourself.

3. UX before UI: 

As a basic rule, it is always a good idea to start with the prototype designs for a compelling user experience. Once you finalize with what you need, you may begin the interface designs based on the user navigation flows, team suggestions and public feedback that you have acquired. This could save you dozens of interface design alterations in the future.

4. The Animated Magic: 

Information represented in animation can engage users more than other traditional methods. For example, an animated visualization of the market data will appeal to its audience more and is very easy for them to understand. The time and energy that you invest in creating animations will pay back as longer session lengths.

5. A Promising Menu Design: 

A menu is the most frequently used element inside an app. So, it occupies a unique and significant position among the design works. The app interface should provide an engaging menu navigation experience that will keep up with the user's expectations. Bottom menu, Guillotine menu etc. are some of the various menu types that you might want to experiment with.
