What Makes Your App So Special?

In a market full of mobile apps that extend to practically every possible use a mobile device can have, it is exceedingly difficult to differentiate your mobile offering from all of the others. While it may seem as easy as simply saying that yours is better than the rest, people are not that trusting, and certainly are not so gullible. The goal for any mobile app, especially with fierce competition in the market, should be to find separation from the rest of the rival apps in its given category. There are several ways to do so, here are a couple to try when conveying how truly special your app is to the mobile market.

 

 

What Do You Have That The Rest Do Not?

 

 

In order to tell users what your app has that the rest lack, you will need to do more than just say so. More specifically, you will need to show them how special your app is compared to the others in its category. Of course, getting your app initially noticed is a big factor, however, once a user has downloaded it and begins to explore its interface, the last thing you want is for it to fall short. So, your goal when designing the app really should be to bring something to the user experience that no other mobile does. This mostly means evaluating the features that your rival apps have, and either improving upon them, or introducing something entirely different for users to enjoy upon downloading your app.

 

 

Making Users See Your App In A New Light

 

 

Another way of allowing users to recognize how special your app is compared to the rest is by changing how they perceive it. Many times, especially after already having used an app, users will get in a pattern of thinking a certain way about it. This concept is similar to how you see something you use everyday, such as your car or something along those lines. When an app finds a stale place in someone’s mind, they are less likely to use it, and probably won’t enjoy it if they do. For such reason, it should be your mission to change any stale thinking that may exist in the minds of users relating to your mobile app. You can do so by changing certain visual aspects of your app, such as its welcome screen, general interface, and even the icon that holds its place on the mobile devices of users. Simple visual improvements can make a big difference in terms of how users see your app, and what’s more, if you are feeling like you need to do more, then you can work on improving the features of your app so that it can really impress users in a new way.

 

 

Conclusion

 

 

You already know how special your app is, but users simply are not as trusting. In many ways, you must earn their trust so that they know exactly what your app brings to their experience on a mobile device that no other mobile offering does. In addition, if you can change how they perceive your app, allowing them to see it as a fresh visual representation of the purpose it holds, then you will be able to increase its reputation among users. Little things like these will go a long way when showing the market how special your app is to the user experience.
