Yoga mats. Leakproof Sippers. Kettlebells. Dumbbells. Gym Towels. Activewear. Trainers….You sure can recall placing an order for (or at least wishlisting!) one of the above commodities in the past 1 year. Even a couple of years back, we used to think of fitness as an athlete-only thing or at most something that’s for the ‘obese’ or ‘underweight’ ones. However, over the last few years (2 years since COVID outbreak - reality check!) among many things that the pandemic has redefined for us, ‘fitness’ has been one of the most prominent one. And my opening statement makes you stand by the fact - I bet!
 

Pandemic hasn’t limited my outdoor steps in the name of safety. Going to a place regardless of the distance and hour of the day doesn’t bother me any longer. Comfortable and convenient commute isn’t synonymous with owning a private vehicle these days. ..All these because of the uber like apps taking the intra & inter-city transportation scenario to a whole different level where booking a ride to almost all places across the city is just a click away.

Covid-19 has changed a lot across almost all aspects of society but still, in spite of the virus prohibiting mask-free breathing, people are strongly rooting for that ‘love’ in the air. Virtual marriages are clear examples of that, and the number of online dating app users reportedly reaching 44.2 million users in 2020, makes it even clearer. Why not make the most of such a striking opportunity that a Tinder like app brings, with a close-knit community with the same objective - right?

I am still in touch with my old friends and colleagues from the previous companies. Aren’t you? I know how one can reach a mass without stepping out of home. Don’t you? I don’t wait for the newspaper or TV channels to tell me about the hot happenings from the past day, as I’m notified about such updates almost instantly. 

‘Dad, I have an idea!’ - be it before leaving to school or while being driven back from her aerobics classes, during a Disneyland vacay or at the Thanksgiving dinner, my daughter has been exclaiming so in various contexts since she became verbally active and I have always been curious about what’s it this time.

In the present era of cut-throat competition, every business makes moves that help them stay ahead of their rivals. And that’s kind of obvious; isn’t it? A rapid growth in terms of revenue, customer base and market share is something that every business unit dreams of. And enterprise application development and deployment acts as an effective catalyst to accelerate that growth. 

In 2018, global mobile app revenues amounted to over 365 billion U.S. dollars which is all set to increase to  935 billion U.S. dollars in 2023. So, the mobile market is invincible at the moment without any signs of slowing down in the foreseeable future. This influences and encourages a lot of small businesses to create a mobile app. 

According to sources, PWA currently can replace many Android Apps. PWA in the near future is expected to be able to replace many IOS Apps. Year after year, the mobile app community revolved around iOS and Android and were tied to them. But with the advent of progressive web apps, the duopoly took a hit. 

Over 3.8 billion people across the world own a smartphone. I bet most of you are reading this article on a smartphone too ;-) With these kinds of stats, one can take a random wild guess that the mobile app industry is booming. Our today’s assignment is to address the universal question - how much does it cost to make an app?

“Which is a better approach for mobile app development? Native or Hybrid?” If William Shakespeare was born today, the question would have been “To Hybrid or to native”. Anyone who thought of developing a mobile app at any point of time faced this dilemma - Native or hybrid app?
