Reasons why mobile applications fail. And solutions for how to level up to the top

Let us first concentrate on the first issue to help businesses prevent possible mistakes right from the beginning.

Lack of unique concept.

Some startups do not focus on delivering value to their potential customers; instead, they copy competitors’ strategies. However, the app may get lost in a multitude of similar solutions with the same technologies at its core. That is why it is critical to map out a unique value proposition from the very beginning.

Problematic UX

Statistics claim that nearly 82% of users do not return to the app, which they find inconvenient to engage. The latter term may cover numerous weaknesses of user experience, such as complicated navigation, long and complex registration or low speed of loads. While planning UI and UX implementation, try to focus on how the app will look like and how it will feel — not only the visual part is crucial, but also the client-solution interaction.

The absence of a monetisation strategy

Another goal you better follow when developing a mobile app is to handle concrete user cases by offering a solution to a demand. Yet to solve issues, you require, foremost, to define them clearly.

Monetisation practices. Mobile apps as business startup

If you plan and develop the app thoroughly, you might attract an audience. Another significant thing for the app is being self-sustained or making money.
