Yesterday I just finished binge-watching a truly genius TV-show called Black Mirror, impressed beyond believing.

That whole concept of the influence that digital technologies make on people’s lives... Wow!

And just a week ago we discussed a hot topic called How Much Does It Take to Create a Virtual Reality App, so today, continuing the theme, we would like to explore a slightly similar subject – augmented reality (AR) apps.

But there is a difference between virtual reality (VR) and AR that separate them regarding development nuances.

The first technology allows to create a completely artificial world for the users to merge with a simulated environment.

While augmented reality concept is a part of the mixed reality, which means that 2D and 3D graphic elements are placed into the real world environment with the help of digital tools for users to interact with them according to the position/orientation of their smartphones’ cameras.

In this fast and nervous rhythm of our lives we often forget to take care of ourselves, so, it’s highly reasonable that more and more mobile developers are interested in the idea to build a cooking app.

Is it your ultimate goal to create a menu planner app for a startup?

All these questions need to be answered.

The thing is, you should understand that technology issues are a 60% of the whole development process.

And before you start coding take into consideration the next points.

If it’s for iOS then you have to learn programming languages – Objective C or Swift.

OWASP Mobile Security: Top 10 Risks for 2017Security in the mobile development field is important as never before.

There is a wild range of various threats that we don’t even think about.

So many aspects are escaping our consideration while it’s our first duty to ensure that all of our app’s users will be secure and none of their personal data will be stolen.

That’s why we decided to explore what is out there to teach us how to handle the security course.It’s already an established fact that every developer should follow the OWASP research about the most common vulnerabilities and attacks regarding mobile and web products.

Well, the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is a worldwide known charitable organization that made their mission to improve the security of software.

Among many of their achievements, there is an OWASP Mobile Security Project, that gives the mobile developers and security teams all resources needed to create secure mobile products.

Digital marketplaces and e-commerce shopping apps for gamers – that handy and highly entertaining mobile products that allow us to purchase desired and top-ranked games online with no-fuss.

You can get any necessary tool without the need to develop it yourself and there are tons of educational information for the most demanding developer.

While answering these, you should consider both your strengths and weaknesses to see how these aspects will influence the development process.

There are two ways: you may use the already made solutions to build a marketplace for gamers (APIs, SDKs and stuff like Sharetribe that built with the Ruby on Rails framework) or you can hire super qualified developers to create it from scratch.

You should get a clear understanding of the marketplace concept, at least, based on the examples of the App Store and Google Play Store.

“HIPAA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (issued in 1996).

HIPAA department also built a series of privacy tools to protect healthcare data.”

As mobile app developers, we should be concerned with Electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) represented by the data that’s saved, transmitted or collected in electronic form.

Which can be hacked and stolen, as long as someone’s iPhone or Smartphone can be lost (and many users don’t password-protect their devices), which leads to PHI exposure and leaves you with the HIPAA violation (non-disclosure) penalty.

You must appropriately follow each of them combined to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your user’s PHI.

It’s all about the security of data, who has authorized access to the PHI data and how this data is going to be managed, including data failure and redundancy requirements, access to servers etc.

And by ‘know’ I mean actually that a person is just familiar with the concept.

You can either create your app from scratch or make money through advertising via already existing social media apps.

The MVP will cost you a lot less than the final app and it should include all the essential features and functions that represent the purpose of your product.

Don’t forget to include the analytical tools in your social media app.

For example, to build a full-fledged social media native iOS app you should learn the Objective-C or Swift language and write a backend code which can be in Ruby on Rails, MVC PHP frameworks or Python, or any other server programming language.

Customized Profiles (bio that displays interests, hobbies, food preferences; avatars; backgrounds; nicknames; user status; themes settings to define style, content, and layout of the profile etc).

It’s really hard these days to manually keep track of our spendings and to calculate what we can and can’t afford at some point.

That often results in the over-budgeting and unpleasant or unnecessary problems with banks.

But... it’s not impossible, fortunately, ‘cuz there is an option that becoming more and more commonly used by all categories of people.

First of all, when you already made up your mind about an idea and a concept for a startup, you should decide for which mobile platform you aim.

Luckily for you, there is a wide range of already existing mobile apps for money management that you can study totally free.

For example, to create a source code on Android platform you must learn the Java programming language and be familiar with SQLite database storage to read and write structured data.
