When it comes to designing and building a mobile app that your target users will love, there’s one piece of the puzzle you can’t afford to overlook:
Without research, your app building team is acting on impulse only. You don’t know what your target customer actually wants, why they want it, or how you should deliver it to them. If you don’t create a user experience your target users latch onto, they won’t bother coming back for more.
Here’s the harsh reality about UX: 34 percent of people say functionality drives their decision of whether or not to download an app. And most will not return, or may even delete the app, if that is to happen. If your user doesn’t enjoy your app the first time around, you can bet they’re gone for good. Just like that.

Consumers’ lives are getting faster and more connected. In this piece, Melanie Jensen, e-commerce manager, Aptos, tells RetailTechNews that to make sure retailers are reaching shoppers at every touchpoint, they need to ensure that they are optimised for life on the go. Nearly a third of online shopping across all retail sectors now occurs on a mobile device, which makes it clear that this is a platform that cannot be ignored.
Mobile apps evolved to make our lives faster, easier, and more convenient. It’s time that retailer’s apps followed these rules. All too often, retailers try to offer fun or ‘cool’ experiences, such as making digital outfits or virtually trying on cosmetics. However, if these extras are difficult to use or time-consuming, customers will quickly lose interest – and retailers could lose a sale.
To make sure that your mobile offering is up to scratch, here are five key things to consider when building your app:

It can be a mighty task to create a conversational user experience (UX). To be sure, there is plenty of hardware and software on the market to support the foundation of conversational UX, such as voice and chat box technology. But, the very definition of conversational UX requires that this experience has to mimic, as closely as possible, an actual human conversation with all its fits and starts and inferences to context.

Companies love the "as-a-service" model for all layers of the technology stack, from infrastructure provided by cloud vendors to full SaaS applications. However, when it comes to data, companies are still operating in a mode of IT-owned and IT-controlled models, where users of data are waiting for their turn in line.
This year we will see the ongoing adoption of open source technologies, methodologies, and cloud services that move companies closer to an "as-a-service" model for their data, making their data scientists, data consumers, and data engineers more productive than ever.

We can find the terms ‘user experiences’ and ‘UX’ all over the Internet. Just a decade ago this subject wasn’t widely known within our industry and now it seems to be the starting point for anyone interested in design or development. With all this talk, you’d think we’d be able to easily answer the question, “What is a user experience?” Turns out, it’s a pretty complicated question.
You may have seen attempts that try to explain UX, each more complicated than the last. For instance, this picture has been floating around the Internet for years and people generally agree (incorrectly) that it demonstrates a user experience pretty well.

Design practitioners get asked the value of their work all of the time. They never have a good answer.
There are good reasons for this. Often, practitioners don’t actually add value. They tweak colors and shapes of objects on the screen, or they move controls from one side to the other. They change the hamburger-menu to a tossed-salad-menu. When much of what passes for interaction design is really just visual tweaking, what quantifiable value does it provide? Not much.

gencies have had websites for years, but with today’s focus on digitizing government, championed by the President’s Management Agenda, it’s clear that simply having a website, or even a mobile app, is not enough. Today’s consumers want sites that are intuitive, informative, and easy to use. This means that sites need to work the way users want them to work while allowing the owning organization to achieve their goals. Enter the practice of User Experience (UX) and the focus on User Interface (UI).
