The mind frame of an iphone app builder and the users are at variance most of the times, making the app that connects them together, either not fully achieving the aim for which it was developed or not achieving it all.
Because of this, the developer must be aware that the users of his products are human beings, and that they have a preference, to the effect that if they want, they can opt for any other similar app that take their fancy. You have to take their choices and every other factor that will make your product serve them well into consideration.
You must be aware that the app market is an open one, everybody has equal access into it as developers irregardless of age, country, or any other dividing line you might think of, hence, if you are able to get an app in, you must do all it takes to make your product acceptable so that you do not loose your share of the market to other emerging developers.
Your product should start from an idea that you believe should be turn into an app. That idea should not end there, the purpose of your app should be well defined. Many times, developers only think of how to make money with their products, and many of them fail at this point, because they fail to put the users into consideration. It is good that you make money with your app, after all it is your product, but that should not be the highest priority when you are developing the app.
The secret behind successful apps is that of providing solution to an existing problem. For a user to want to download your app, that user has seen that it can help him or her to get solution to a particular problem at hand. Users do not come to app store just for fun, they come looking for solution. Many of them will use keywords to get to the sections that they want. If your app happens to fall within the range of keywords they are using they will go to check what you have there.
All the features of your app must show the fact that it is there to serve the users, to give them solution and help them overcome challenges. When your mobile app can do this successfully, you can be sure that it will create a viral effect of usage, as users will pass words round about the great features of the app.
You should be able to get the bigger picture of your mobile app right from the idea generation stage so that you can incorporate this into the development stage and come out with a complete product at the end that will not only make you happy, but all the people that come in contact with it and actually makes use of it.
Take your mobile app as your special gift to the world, package it well and users will be grateful that you did.
