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.

iPad Application Development And iPad Game Development Scenario

Launch of iPhone has changed the way we have used smart phones, and launch of iPad has changed the way we have looked at tablet technologies. Technology which we believed will take some time to come to us has become reality of touch of our finger-tips. iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development has opened new era of Tablet application development field. We have talked to certain people about their views on the iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development scenario.

One of the companies we have interviewed was Morpheous, a well-known mobile and web application development company. When asked about the current situation of the market CEO said “We have all reasons to say that Apple did not even gave chance to Microsoft for entering in Tablet market, which we all know is trying for long to get into it, as our current iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development program, we think it is the best thing happened to tablet market”. He kept on describing “We tried our hands on MS tablet software applications, but it was not as cool as what we do for iPad right now”. Well what to say, market agrees to this and we see rising trend on the iPad Application Development Market.

iPad Game Development has sore its own heights with high quality graphics delivering capabilities of hardware itself, developers enjoy making good quality games with eye-catching graphics. iPad Application Development on the other hand concentrates more on useful apps, like business apps or utilities applications creation. With capturing both corporate and entertainment market iPad as a product been quite a success for Apple, and it’s hard for even company like Apple to meet increasing demand. With Launch of iPad2 now it’s clear that we are going to see more computing power to be given on tablets and can easily predict that the era of laptops seems near to an end.

With Google launching its special Honeycomb OS for Tablets, the completion of tablet based development is far from over. It has just started. iPad Application Development providing more and more useful and productive apps and iPad Game Development giving most entertaining games, is going to take a while for a light from Apple to be deem. And by the way, who wants it to be. They are the one who changed the scenario of what we have thought will come by next 5 years… is right now on our finer tips.

iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development An Introduction

iPad can be considered major step taken by any IT company so far for serious tablet base computing. With ever growing demand of Apps, iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development is now in demand in latest IT mobile application development scenario. With latest releases and updates by Apple every month, it’s a cat and mouse game for developers to catch-up the new changes come in each update for iPad Application Development and also iPad Game Development. We will review in this article about the technology and features of both types of development and what it takes to deliver the high quality games.

iPad Application Development is somewhat same like developing for iPhone. It uses the same Xcode and user interface which is used to develop iPhone Apps. iPad Application Development though contains some different container and also major difference comes when designing graphics for the apps. Graphics needed to be designed 2x in the size than what is designed for iPhone. Another obvious difference is simulator to test applications. iPad Application Development is about creating business, utility, sports, medical and other types of apps which are either informative or interactive. Where you can push and pull data from servers and display different info or save it to server or in the device inputs given by user.

iPad Game Development is on the other hand is more complex than iPad Application Development. For iPad Game Development, or say any game development, one needs to be good at math and physics. Well not all game are complex but if game you are developing fall into the category of RPG or FPS etc. than it really is going to ask more than just simple logical code or use of base iOS SDK. iPad Game Development comprise of engines like Cocos 2D or Unity 3D, which are use generally to make a game play, plot and characters and later on ported to SDK for more intense coding and compiling. Unlike application development, game development asks for more intense testing and bug fixing due to higher end graphics and more complex user flows. All depends on the complexity of the game that needs to be developed.

With release of iPad2 and latest iOS 4.3, the power of apps has been shown off. From web based features usage of the day to day info to usage of Apps, apps platform has been an extra ordinary successful way to provide great tablet base computing interface. With iOS 5 waiting to be launched in third quarter and upcoming devices, we are assured that iPad Application Development and iPad Game Development would be more interesting and will include more features for better tableting.

iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development The Thundering Field

iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development is so far the most interesting development in the mobile application development field and has changed the way we have looked and worked with app development and designing. With good user interface and coding prefixes we are at the stage of the beginning of totally new era of programming and designing Apps and Games. If you look at the basic SDK which was release in 2008 and the SDK which we use right now (4.3), it has been dramatically improved. iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development has not as same as what we used to deal with last year.

There has been lot of change on the technical point of view for the developers, in iPhone Application Development. One of the major differences now we can see is the speed of the user interface and more systematic approach to the file management and coding methodology. There are many other improvements which apple has done and also not to forget making multitasking available for apps has really given wings to iPhone Application Development. Development of business apps, apps for children, utility apps etc. can be widely covered by the base SDK itself and most of the time there is no need for using any external APIs.

iPhone Game Development on the other hand has also got some new things to play with. As we know iPhone Game Development can not only be done using base SDK, especially for complex game and graphics. We need engines like Coco2D and Unity for better lookout and smooth play. The Good news for all the game development community is Cocos3D has been launched and is getting updated while I am writing this article, it might be in initial stages but we believe it will make much difference compare to developing games in Unity 3D which on the other has is bit costly considering the game development requirements.

As we are near the launch of iOS 5 which is in its 5th beta release, we expect there will be many more things on the platter then what we see right now on Apple’s website. iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development has changed the way we have programmed, designed and scaled our level of mobile app development and estimated mobile computing future. With iPhone 5 look and feel rumors in air, one can smell the thunder coming right to us, like Apple throwing updates to developers and saying... “Let’s see what you can do with that ....”

iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development – Converting Ideas to Reality

Recently done survey shows that nos. of smartphone in the world will be twice in next 5 years of what number having today. And for sure Apple is going to have its piece of pie. With iPhone devices become more and more interesting and faster, more people are trying to reach iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development companies with their ideas to convert them in actual apps. We have gone out in the iPhone Application Development market and asked few who are in this business that how exactly they do it.

We have met one of the Senior Developer, Mr. Bharat of well-known Mobile and Web App Development Company Morpheous and ask the same question, is it that creative and different? Here is what he has to say “Yes, it is so far the most creative development we have done. All ideas are different and so as their implementations and people come-up with such ideas that sometimes it really amazes us and whether it is iPhone Application Development or iPhone Game Development, it’s always different and we learn something new each time”

The second question was obvious, what is the difference between developing an app and a game? Here is what he has to say “ Different is much,iPhone Application Development is what you can do it with an SDK and may be use some allowed APIs, but iPhone Game Development is mostly not developed using base SDK only. It includes engines like Cocos2D or Unity.” From the conversation one thing is now clear that, they have been creative and so as the ideas which come to them. Other question in mind which comes is, Security? He said “We sign NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) to assure our clients that their iPhone Application Development or iPhone Game Development idea is secured with us”

Now, with bit of clarity in mind, we can assume that the development flow is not complex as it seems and with good communication skills and high quality services, Companies like Morpheous has an upper hand in app development business. Idea is where is starts from and takes shape of what you will need, service of iPhone Application Development or iPhone Game Development, risk is eliminated or created from Company you choose for development. Companies like Morpheous are well-known and even provides money back guarantee in-case something goes wrong, but you need to be aware from those other breed “Freelancers” which may cost you more than just your app.

iPhone Application Development - An Everlasting Era

2008 is year to remember, where iphone application developers have been blessed by new bee, called iOS SDK. Firstly reluctant and burned by typical development for Symbian like systems, initially it was looked by iphone application developers like cave man looking at fire when it’s invented. Hence the beginning of the beginning of iPhone Application Development started. Some of the iphone application developers we met recently explained how they felt about the whole iPhone Launch and that it may be just another phone with some goodies and then when the goodies run out, it’s generally over and you need to find another device offering something more or different.

Well, it was not the right thing to think of. Apple iPhone has changed the way we have used smart phones and it has really made iPhone smart. With un-limited flow of applications available for download from app store and support and development from iPhone Application Development community, it just don’t run out of goodies. iPhone Application Development is so far most successful and powerful mobile application field entered in market, and so as iPad and other related iOS based development. With many features to play with and good amount of sensors to use for, there is now a chance to develop cool apps and more useful ones too.

iPhone Application Development has indeed became a very good mobile application development field for IT companies, as mobile computing power is increasing and so as the screen sizes and touch inputs. Developed we talked with emphasizes more on performance of the applications. One of the senior developed working in iPhone Application Development department from and IT company named Morpheous told “It is important that you should have very good looking app, but we should not forget performance is as important and so as compatibility”. iPhone Application Development is what Apple has played the dice and yes we all agree, it has paid back. When we ask companies benefiting from their growing business, they all have one thing to say in common, it is iphone application developer friendly and so as user friendly.

There is still some dissatisfaction n market about regulations put by Apple for Apps selling and distributing. iPhone Application Development has so far made good fortune for apple and market believes it is going to bring more, more goodies. May be an everlasting era of mobile computing has already begun...

iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development Scenario

Being .NET developer, I had never thought of working so deeply in mobile application development. From the day I have entered to learn about iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development, I have never looked back. It took me about 20 days to get totally involve in iPhone Application Development process and get use to methods. To learn iPhone Application Development, it took some training from the people who have already worked in it and some of my own R&D. Since then I have developed about 50 Apps by myself and hoping to develop more.

iPhone Application Development comprise of 2 to 3 steps

a) Understanding Requirements
b) Understanding User Flow
c) Actual Development

First we need to understand the requirements and make user flow accordingly. User flow means the way user is going to use the app or the way you want to guide user through app, and then the actual development starts. Same is for iPhone Game Development. There is a story line, plot, game logic and main features, depends on the type of game you develop.

iPhone Application Development is being done using three important tools, you need MAC, iOS SDK and yes a device to test developed iPhone App. For iPhone Game Development, there are also third party software available on paid basis which enables you to port graphics and game for iOS, like Unity. It take some time to learn them but once you are done it is easier to develop game in their environment and port it than to make it from scratch up in iOS SDK. Well, on the other hand iPhone Application Development is better to be done in iOS and take care while using any third party API, as Apple might reject your app because of that.

Apple has recently launched iOS 5 Beta 4 and we are waiting for it to have final release. It has many features which includes iCloud based development. This will surely bring new era of sharing and storing your data and for developers working in iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development to develop more exciting apps.

iPhone Application Develoment: New Era in Mobile Computing by Morpheous

Apple has opened new frontiers with launching iPhone and iPad. It really has begun the Mobile Computing and Apps development race. iphone application develoment is the field which is now talk of the town and cities and countries. Once there was OS named Symbian, in which we have supposed to develop mobile apps and games. But it never evolved neither it became developer friendly. You must be an astronaut and programming in Symbian was surely a rocket science. Then, the change came, Apple has proved with iphone application develoment that, it’s not only easy to work with but also to understand the system and due to system support only one device, there is not testing of apps needed for different devices with different screens and features, unlike Symbian.

Apple launched its first iOS SDK in mid 2008 and since then it has been upgraded to many revisions or versions, providing new features to iPhone Apps Programmer each time. iphone application develoment is done in Objective-C language and has somewhat similar interface like visual basic. Where you have Graphical User Interface for Form building and other is coding interface. For iPhone Apps Programmer, there is well defined file structure to follow; so that you can just connect the pieces right and rest of the things are taken care by compliers.

Third and Most important part of the iOS or you can say Latest iOS 5 SDK is its simulator, where iPhone Apps programmer can build and check the application he has developed like testing it in device. iphone application develoment environment also provides option for porting the apps directly to device for testing via the SDK, and that is very beneficial to remove and bugs or unknown force closes. As hardware is getting more and more advance, like the newly added multi-tasking feature to new model, Apple has made sure it brings new and latest things on platter for both User and Apps Programmer.

iPhone Apps Development has surpassed the development done in Symbian or any other mobile platform in just few months and so far it’s biggest success Apple has achieved so far. There was one question everybody had at Launch of iPhone, what after 1 year or after you use all native apps? With simple answer to it: Apps, Develop more and more apps. And with it came the new breed called iPhone Apps Programmer, specializing in iPhone Apps Development and satisfying the ever growing hunger of different types of Applications and Games.

Iphone apps development a New Generation Choice

From its launch on late 2007, iOS SDK has made it possible to develop applications just like native iphone applications. From very basic SDK to latest version 4.3.3 Apple has made sure that it remains developer friendly and stays in available framework. iphone apps development has not only passed all expectations but also maintained its consistency and quality during the basic development stage to advance stage.

Apple has initially restricted many features and which latterly made available to developers to play with, which has been a bad news in market for some time, but yet it is so far the best mobile application toolkit existed. iphone app development toolkit does not only comprise of development for iphone applications but also lets you test it in given simulator and on Apple iphone device. And this made it easy for iphone developers to develop and deliver best quality and bug free iphone app. iphone apps development tools are easy to use and SDK user interface is not that hard to catch-up, I can say even its easier then what it was at the launched time.

Apple iOS SDK used for iphone apps development is based on programming language ObjectiveC and is somewhat familiar with C and C++. Due to its own development library and development environment, developing for iphone has its own touch. The iphone simulator I have mentioned before can be used as onscreen GUI tool to see exactly how your iphone application will behave on device. iPhone Simulator has same look and feel as of the original iphone device. During the development of iphone application, developer can check it instantly on the simulator and solve the bugs of change the coding or designing accordingly. In iphone apps development it is just like writing in WYSIWYG editor, where what you see in development phase is what you will get on iphone device as an iphone application.

Application designing for iphone apps development is also another tool that has been provided as GUI, where iphone application developers can drag and drop components and then do coding according to their use. Apple has made sure that iphone apps development is restricted enough, so that it cannot be copied or created or sold without using iOS or Apple App store. iPhone device has also been sold based on the restriction of Apple’s policy to keep the app development on their native MAC OS using their hardware and their development kit. I hope this information on iphone apps development will help iphone apps programmer understand the Apple iphone apps development basic scenario both user and developer point of view.
