Getting your Idea converted via iPhone Application Development and Android Application Development – Part 1

I have touched this topic before, but insist on repeating it as most of my articles related to converting your idea via iPhone Application Development and Android Application Development are old and you may not be aware as they are way down the article list. I will mainly discuss about, how to get your idea converted into real app via mentioned services. I am Shalin Shukla; I run company Morpheous which is one of well-known App Development and Game Development Company, and I like to share my experience with you all regarding this industry and how development works for the same.

To start with, you need to pen out your idea; this is one of the most important steps. If you write down what you have imagined, it will be always easy to re-visit those thoughts and add some or remove some from it. Another thing you need take care of is, ruff drawings. It is always useful for people like us to have some ruff drawings from you, as it helps so much in understanding the idea you want to get converted via iPhone App Development and Android App Development. Having an idea and getting it to be converted into real app is step by step process. And sharing your idea with any company securely is also one of the important steps.

Make sure you sign NDA with the company with which you share your idea or information about the app you want to get built. This will ensure safety of your data and idea. Companies like Morpheous do this without any hesitation, so if someone does not sign it, be cautioned. Sharing your requirement is just one step of the process. Once you receive the iPhone Apps Development or Android Apps Development time, you need to make sure that it has been mentioned with deliverables. Also remember that shortest development time is not always better or does not represent experience.

Once you decide on the company, make sure the payment terms are lenient and that you do not pay all at once until and unless your project falls under small scale and completion time is within a week or so. I will cover more information on iPhone Application Development and Android Application Development process and also about other steps you need to understand about the process. I hope this will help you in moving forward with your idea and getting it converted into real iPhone Application or Android Application.

Android Application Development - a Quick Look

It all started with a sweet and healthy competition with Apple and Google about the Smartphone Development and obviously it’s OS. Microsoft by that time had already implemented it windows CE or you can say windows mobile and been in the market from some time. With Apple coming out with iOS with dedicated hardware called iPhone, it was Google’s time to give the good news. Well it did not went well, with announcing launch of Android OS, Google introduced Nexus 1, smartphone supporting Android OS. Just like development for iPhone Application, enthusiastic developer started Android Application Development with SDK provided by Google.

After spending some time on the SDK, developers across thee glob realized Android Application Development is not going to be same as what they do for iPhone or iPad. Being dependant on Java Android App Development needed good amount of skill set and a very logical mind to really come through some working apps. Unlike iOS SDK, there are not many features which really provide you good command on user interface design or any drag and drop features. Android Application Development hit the block when developers got frustrated with slow response in debugging and running the simulators, also basic functions like rotation of simulator from portrait to landscape mode not work well.

Google came-up with more stable and useful update in beginning of 2010 and it really made some big differenced both in case of user experience of the new Android OS and Android Application Development field. Developers started using the new SDK and appreciated the changes and more smooth flow and more responsive simulator of the smartphone with different base os options to select from for the testing. As it grew, market understood the potential of Android based device due to its low cost and variety of handsets to choose from and hence Google Android based phones started to capture market, still leaded by Symbian based phones. As market has grew so as the Android Application Development Business.

Android Apps Development, we cannot say is neck to neck as iPhone app development, but is surely giving good opportunity for today’s Java developers to do something more creative and different. And if you know java well, Android Application Development is something can be done with it. Most positive point of Android Application Development and launching your app on market is you in short time will know how your creation is received and what people think about it, by reviews and instant uploading provided by Google, unlike Apple which takes sometimes about 3 - 4 days for the approval.
