The Prime Motto of Your Productivity App

If you want to make money from your productivity app, your campaigns should be proper. Your app should not be targeted to only one or two countries, it should cover at least 10 countries. Also, your app should be available on all the possible platforms. It should not be restricted to a single or a particular platform.

Other concern includes complex coding at the backend. For that you can either hire an offshore developer or onshore developer, we would suggest hiring those developers who are proficient enough to make these type of mobile apps.

After it, the next challenge for you is the best programming language of your productivity app which depends on the operating system of your app.

The Programming Language of Your Productivity App

The programming language depends on your desired platform for which you are developing that mobile app. The platform can be Andriod, iOS, blackberry or windows.

If you choose Android for your productivity app then your preferred language would be Java but if you want to develop your productivity app for Apple devices, then you should go for Swift programming language.

The mistakes

Partnering with wrong mobile app developer

Finding and hiring the right mobile app developer is very important, if you choose the wrong developer then you won’t be able to achieve the aims you have set with your mobile app. You have to be very careful when you are choosing the outsourcing Company, you should check their reviews, past works, client testimonials etc.
