The background - The past and Present of Digital
We are living at a time of speedy digital developments - most of which is driven by hand-held devices such as Internet enabled smart phones. Few years ago - as close as 20 years back - did we know the future was going to be so different?
When we were children, we had limited or no exposure to mainstream digital experiences. However, our children are growing with digital devices everywhere around them. Personal assistant, wearable, smart TV, Smartphone and the list is endless. They form a strong bonding with these devices from a very early age, and as they grow, their engagement and expectation from digital will continue to grow.
They are digital natives - a term used to refer people who are born or brought up during the age of digital technology. Their thought process, inclination, expectations and priorities are vastly digitally influenced. Moreover, that means the future of digital should be very eventful - populated with lot of breakthroughs. Looking at the present of mobile app development for example, we can see the future of digital experiences is going to be fun.
Mobile app development - Emerging Trends
A lot of technological developments are happening across mobile app development process. Design thinking-led approaches are redefining customer expectation and deliverables. The need for advanced applications that do a lot more than desired, are paving way for in-app technological changes, resulting in high-end user experiences. Here are a few technologies and developments that we are seeing to take centre stage and probably develop the foundation of app experience for the future
• AR & VR - Taking gaming experience by a storm, AR - short for Augmented Reality and VR - short for Virtual Reality are offering increased realistic interactions with message for a user. Marketers are finding huge opportunities in these technologies and they are leveraging on it to improve and enhance buying experience for their users. One of the use cases for AR in business app can be its ability to recognize objects. Companies in the smart home gadgets can effectively use the technology to gather detailed information for better user interaction. Even healthcare, education and IT sector has ways to explore it to improve their services.

IoT has the capacity to introduce disruption - and businesses can use it to improve security essentials, streamline processes for better service and reduce expenses. With custom IoT apps - web apps, sensors and devices - businesses can understand where they are lacking behind the competition and leverage on ways to better serve the industry they belong to.
• Chat bots - Integrating chat bots in native apps is in trend and it is expected the trend will continue to grow. AI- driven chat bots with custom ability to predict user needs and present full-fledged solution quickly reduces a business's dependability on costly human resource undertakings. Chat bots are considered because they enhance mobile user experience, their constant integration with latest high-end technologies are making them matured to better interact with users.
