A Glimpse Of Google Android Q Preview

Starting from Cupcake to Oreo, Android has always triggered that sweet nerve within our brain, and let’s accept this fact that Android has unintentionally though, but has always triggered the dessert concoction in our daily life. JJJ

I am assured, most of us out there would agree with me.

However, switching back to the main topic, lemme bring your attention to the BIGGEST news and that is…

Android and Google have released the first preview of Android Q to developers. YIPPPIIEEEE!!!

This has been done in the annual tradition of an early March, where every year new look of Android gets introduced. Indeed this release is largely and only meant for developers, and the changes which would make a difference to the users, are not here but don’t think that there are no changes, which would entice the developers.

To be précised, Google has brought some of the revolutionary changes, such as improved privacy controls and native support for foldable phones.

Android Q Availability

Now the first beta of Android Q is available only for the Pixel device, consisting of first-gen Pixel and Pixel XL.

Google has offered extended support to specific model due to popular demand.

 You can install it on the main device after some time.

Expected Features From Android Q

§  Eventually, one of the major changes Android Q will bring an additional privacy setting for location access, letting users limit apps to only pull that information, till application is in use.

§  Google has also brought new limits to the access apps, that will get access to different aspects like photos, videos, and audio along with any downloaded files on devices.

§  Also, Android Q has better support for foldable phones.

§  Q is getting much better support for resuming and pausing apps from running in the background.

§  There is an improvement in resizing apps for split-screen modes, which would fit the bill for the foldable devices like the Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X, which are about to get released by the end of 2019.

§  The new Settings Panel API is something which is garnering the attention most. This will allow the developers to get instant, pop-up access to phone settings like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and NFC without having to kick users out to the settings application and back.  This feature will ensure to set up a Bluetooth speaker, your configuration apps would be able to pop up the device’s native Bluetooth panel to be turned on the radios and connect it right away from the application.

§  There will be an improved share sheet in Android Q, letting developers to pre-publish their apps’ functionalities, which further means that the shared UI would load instantly instead, without getting manually rebuilt. Although this is a minor change, this smaller change would transform the game for Android Q and will make it more relishing.

§  The new photo and video options in Q would allow standardizing the depth of map images with work and will let the Android get a new Dynamic Depth format, consisting a JPEG image, depth metadata, and a depth map bundled together. These Dynamic Depth images can be picked by the developers form the main devices with cameras.

§  Needless to say, but this would ease down the woes of the third-party website to find the specialized blurs options.

§  Google has also made an announcement that Android Q shall support the next-generation AV1 video codec, offering enhanced streaming quality with less bandwidth.

What Will Be The Name?

As always, there are many speculations rolling in the market about the Q name, but there is no formal information from Google, whether the Q would represent and dessert or dish, but it would be something extraordinary and satisfactory as always.

This is all about the Android Q as of now, but certainly, Techugo team will ensure to keep you posted and informed about its related information. So keep watching this space to get more information.

7 Important Points To Remember While Developing An iPhone App

There’s absolutely no doubt that the demands for mobile apps have risen exponentially in recent times. The app store is the proof with millions of apps available to users at their disposal. This only goes on to prove the strong human dependency on the apps to meet their requirements. Howbeit, this doesn’t mean that every other app available on the app store would find its way on the users’ devices. Users have the privilege to choose from a humongous roster of apps and thus, your app needs to be distinctive in order to appeal to the user. Let’s go through some of the important points to remember while developing apps for iPhone with Techugo, a top iPhone application development company.

1.      The Initial Phase: This is the conceptualization and planning stage. This is the stage where an individual or an organization conceives an idea for the app and checks for its feasibility. One of the most important aspect of the app is to verify how viable the idea is. It is the idea behind the app that makes it different from the rest of the lot. Nonetheless, the initial phase isn’t just about having an idea for the app. This is the stage where the business or individual decides how to go about developing the app, the app development company to work with, chalking out a rough idea about the development process and marketing, etc.

2.      The Specifications Phase: At this stage, the individual/organization looking forward to get the app developed should sit down with the chosen app development company and discuss the features, layout and other important specifications of the app in detail. This sets the expectation right and get the wheels moving in the right direction. We at Techugo, listen to our clients’ specifications while giving an ear to the details to deliver the best in class app.

3.   The Designing Phase: This is when the client sits with the app development company and wireframes the layouts and functionalities that are to be present in the app. This is exclusively done by the app development company and is an approximation of how the app looks and feels. It also describes the screens and navigation functions of the app. Techugo has the expertise in wireframing and sketching of the app and provides exceptional wireframing services to its clients.

4.      UI/UX & Programming Of The App: iOS apps are generally based on event driven programming. Event driven programming is based on the responses generated by the system and/or user. For instance, a click on a tab of an app is an event and the response to that is action that follows after the tab is clicked. Apart from this, the rest of the app is structured out using appropriate tools and applications required to develop an app. At the same time, during the development phase of the iOS app, the UI of the app is also developed. Perhaps, the most important aspect of an app development process is to create a flawless UI as this is what the users see, base their experiences upon and form an opinion about the app. One should make sure, the UI of the app is fairly simple and the navigation within the app shouldn’t be confusing. At Techugo, we possess the expertise to use modern technologies and tools to develop an app that is at par with your specifications.We also keep a keen eye out to develop a perfect and uncomplicated UI for your consumers so that they instantly familiarize with your app and come out with a positive experience.

5.      The Testing Phase:This is the phase when the app goes into scrutiny only to fare well in the future and to provide users with a glitch-free experience. This is where the app tests on all parameters, from coding to the UI, everything is verified and only then the app is given a thumbs up for release. Techugo has a team for app testing that tests the app on all fronts so that no mistakes go unnoticed.

6.      The Release Phase:This is when the app is ready to be rolled out. One should always go with the MVP approach when releasing an app. MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is a strategy wherein an app only has the most required features and not the additional or enabling features for the app. The MVP version of the app gives organizations/individuals a fair idea about how the app is doing among the customers, helps in circling down on the shortcomings with the help of user feedback, and also enables in recognizing the necessary features that are to be included in the further releases.Apart from this, the ASO (App Store Optimization) and marketing strategy for app promotion are also to be kept in mind. All these things collectively provide a much required push in the right direction to help your app become a hit among its consumers. Techugo, a top iPhone app development service provider, not only knows how to release the app on the app store efficiently but, is also a marketing genius who knows how to market your app to the users to help gain it maximum exposure.

7.      Continuous Evolution: An app development process is everlasting. Therefore, to keep up with the likings, trends and ever changing requirements of the consumers, it is important that an app is constantly updated according to the changing specifications. The developers and clients collectively need to come up with new features or discuss the features that are to be rolled out subsequently for the app.

At Techugo, we believe in bonding with our clients because it’s not just business for us. We know that things prosper in the long run and hence, we work with our clients to ensure that an amazing product is delivered to the target customer base.

How To Publish App on Android App Market Successfully

A mobile app development process is ever-expanding and flourish further with time, undeniably the process of attaining an impeccable mobile app solution for your business requirement, is a dream people yearn for…but the Android app development process, does not initiate with the concept and ends with the development only, but the actual journey begins with the app publishing on the Android platform. I agree the process is not the most comforting either for iOS or Android, and each has their own specific demand of prerequisite, failing to meet the demand; you face the music and suffer the unnecessary trouble and pain of mobile app rejection.

A top Android app development company must have few basic facts cleared before the initiation of the app development process, such as understanding of your need, your audience and most importantly, the thorough comprehension of the Android app development process and how to publish your app on Google Play. Just to make it a little easier, I have collected a few notes of information for you, so you can be assured of your app publishing process on Android app market. Let’s take a look:

• Google’s Launch Checklist

The first and the foremost relevant aspect is Google’s Launch Checklist, most of the app developers trust their experience while publishing the mobile app on the Android app market, which is not at all a bad thing, but before you publish your app, it would not be wrong at all to follow the Google’s Launch Checklist. Do you wonder why? At times there are certain basic rules which you skip unintentionally and it may lead to app rejection, so in order to avoid such gruesome situation for your client and yourself, it is always advisable to crosscheck the Google’s launch checklist and remain ensured that you’ve covered all the mentioned rules.

• Flawless UI / UX

Your app concept is incredible, app marketing is also commendable, but when the real-time app publication on the Android app market comes, your app fails to get published. It happens that even after having a wonderful concept and marketing, your app would face the sunlight of Google Play. To avoid yourself to fall into such pitfall of rejection agony, you ought to adopt the seamless user experience inside an awesome UI, so Google Play will feature your mobile app without any hassle. Google looks forward a refined and polished UI /UX as possible to meet its overall Android app standards.

• Don’t Integrate Every Feature

We all have heard the phrase “Jack of all trades and master of none”, although this aphorism has a hidden message within it, for the intellectual Android app developers. Are you unable to judge the context behind my words, lemme explain; when we try to compete with the every app available in the Android app market, we end up infusing the confusion and friction together within the mobile app, which is highly unhealthy option for the health of your mobile app. As an Android app developer, you need to integrate features, based on the user’s demand and the marketing research, which will help you incorporating the only relevant features within the mobile app.

• Configuring Options And Uploading Features

With Android app market, your mobile app has a wider audience throughout the world with various devices. By configuring various Google Play settings, choose the countries you want to reach, the listing languages you want to use, and the price you want to charge in each country. Google Play gives you an option of configuring listing details: application type, category & content rating. On finalizing the configuring options you may upload the promotional materials and the mobile application as an unpublished draft application.

• Don’t Miss Google Product Initiatives

One more aspect help to increase the chances of your mobile app being featured, is the integration of Google Product initiatives, like Android Pay. Google is very particular about the mobile app’s features, which utilize the services and features both within the Android app ecosystem.

• Test The Release Version

Before you plan to make your mobile go live, you need to consider some crucial points; you ought to test the release version on at least one target handset device and one target tablet device. Make sure that every single piece of multimedia files and graphics as a resource of mobile application, are updated and staged on the proper production servers.

• Publishing The Release Version

If you are assured from every angle and think nothing more is left, then you can simply click the Publish button in the developer console and within minutes your application will be live and available for your users to download in the maximum numbers.

All these options are suitable for your Android mobile app being considered by Google Play, but if you think there is a proven formula to be implied, to get your app featured on Google Play instantly, then you are absolutely wrong, since there is no success formula to try your luck here, rather you need to extra cautious while developing and before publishing your mobile app on the Google Play, failing to which Google cannot approve your mobile app to be published on the Google Play. You need to be well versed with the Google guidelines and need to pay attention to every single point mentioned above, to save yourself from the horror of disapproval from Google. At Techugo- a top Mobile app development company, we take pride in developing the mobile apps for the leading brands to startups and our Android mobile app development team has the expertise to create a unique variety of Android mobile app solution for your business needs, which would help you to showcase your idea, goal and dream in the most informative and engaging way.

HOW IOT CAN HELP THE RETAIL BUSINESS

I woke up in the morning with my window blinders opening automatically, when my alarm 4th snooze went off, I tried but could not sleep anymore the warm and cozy sun rays had drenched my face and all I could do was smile and opted for my daily routine, by the time I landed on the road, I was already late for 15 min, and all the credit goes to my sleep dragon. Sooner I started my car, the alternate route was suggested to me by the tech gadget since there could be road traffic in the stretch of 2kms, I almost felt kissing the gadget, then I realized how much technology has improved and has reshaped and revolutionized our day-to-day lives and technology has expanded to IoT.

We love it when we get personalized treatment, but feel exquisite if technology can interconnect our bodies with our homes. This is only possible with IoT, to understand IoT and its effects on our lives, read further.

What is IoT

As per the Wikipedia, “The Internet of things (stylized Internet of Things or IoT) is the internet working of physical devices, vehicles (also referred to as “connected devices” and “smart devices”), buildings and other items—embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity that enable these objects to collect and exchange data.” Oops, that sounds too technical to be handled by a common man, let me ease it down for you, in a layman’s diction, IoT , is all about connecting devices over the internet, letting them talk to us, applications, and each other and it includes everything from mobile to the car engine. As per the McGill, IoT technology is “narrowing the gap between the physical and digital worlds.”

Why IoT for Retail Business
With the ever growing technology, consumers demand seamless experience with their shopping way, has also increased. It can be a physical shop, an e-commerce website, a mobile app or a door-to-door service; customers always look for the more. In order to come across the consumer demand, IoT technology has a myriad of options available to convert the user experience into most satisfactory. Studies have further proven that the market size and growth potential for the retail industry and how it is making substantial revenue through IoT adoption in the areas of supply chain monitoring, inventory management, product tracking, and payment processing. IoT is the future for the retail business and would grow very fast in the next few years and will completely change the consumer experience.

How Retailers Can Benefit From Internet of Things

IoT is a robust technology that improves the lifestyle and business at a higher speed. Consumer adoption of IoT devices is expected to rise quickly; following are the benefits retailers may attain from IoT:

Keep A Check On Inventory
The basic and the foremost important job every retailer has to perform is to track the inventory from production to warehouse and warehouse to store shelves, with IoT it can be the easiest job in the world, through sensors, such as Beacons and NFC tags. A retail business can take much advantage of the radio frequency tags to track and manage the inventory since the collected data is real-time and would provide the accurate inventory estimation.

Hassle-Free Delivery

Technology rules everywhere and the GPS devices have been used for tracking delivery trucks, but with IoT, the delivery process of goods has reached to a next level, users can predict the easy delivery route, transporting speed, storage temperature adjustment and alerts rising. With this feature retailers can minimize their expenditure like fuel costs, reduced theft, tracking the product and reduce loss risks and would gain accurate delivery time.

Vending Machines

Vending machines around the corner for the customers can be a major deal for the retail business owners to attract a mass of potential customers, who simply want to grab your services at their convenience. As per the demand of targeted customers, a vending machine installed with IoT technology can offer a magnificent deal to convert prospects into customers, changing shopping experience for both- customers and retailers. IoT helps in analyzing the real-time data of customer history and their demands and provide the business prediction and be competitive enough.

No Delay In Maintenance

Post-sale service can turn the customers into loyal customers in retail business, but keeping a tab on service record can be precarious with a huge database to deal with. The post-sale service can be tracked easily with IoT resulting real-time data, by sensors. IoT technology lets the information goes back to the retailers and required action to be taken.

IoT, more or less is a Tech-Revolution, with a focus on IoT would result in positive returns on investment for retailers. IoT creates a platform of opportunities for the retail industry to achieve efficient business solutions, by addressing the right person, right content at the right time and right place. A Markets and Markets report estimated that the global market size of the retail IoT, including hardware, software, and services which would increase from $14.28 billion in 2015 to $35.64 billion in 2020, representing a 20.07% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). To conclude with, IoT is not just confined to sensors and connectivity, but it’s a new era for business outcomes, creating new customer experiences, generating revenue with every possible opportunity to engage every customer with the product.

In the morning when I start my day, I depend on the apps, available in my mobile to commence my day; it’s not hard for most of us to relate to mobile apps and can’t deny that apps are everywhere, mobiles can never be ignored. But at times users find a saturation point in their day-to-day life when they pick mobile apps. As somebody famously said, there’s an app for every need, but there’s no need for every app. Unknowingly due to a repetitive version of concepts and ideas we drown ourselves more to “app fatigue”, which happens due to the least interest incurred since users don’t find anything new in the fresh stock of mobile apps.

App Boredom

We all live in the world which is flooded with technology and with so many people using uncountable apps, to gain monotonous with app usage is very common.

To avoid the app boredom, you must provide the value of an enterprise app and must check its ability to save time and achieve specific business goals. Enterprise app must act like a second phase to perform the official tasks. These apps have a very vast circle of app choice to develop from and can have a maximum number of users, looking for your services.

Hit New Markets

Entrepreneurs need not limit their client base to European and North American markets since these two markets have a robust channel of mobile app sales. On the contrary countries from Asia and Latin America have a bigger market for smartphones, but their app development is still in developing stage, so the more business can be generated.

Survival of Fittest

The experience a user attains after visiting the mobile app is needed to be suave and interesting.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO CREATE E-LEARNING

E-learning or most commonly known as M-learning is the modern way of learning; it is performed through computers and online education. Lately, this technology has already been adopted by many educational institutions like schools and colleges, training institutions. We all love to gain knowledge, but the demanding schedule, traveling distance; despite the fact, we all want to gain the education in the most effective way possible. E-learning is not the latest trend, but the necessity of today’s time; people get the relevant study material and training as per their convenience. E-learning is a business activity and a huge industry.

Why need e-learning

Mobile learning or e-learning has vast benefits. The first benefit you receive is the instant access to the material; your staff can easily access training resources, whenever they need. It helps the employees to learn anywhere, anytime as per their convenience and they would not be solely dependent on offline study material. The technology used can be given to students like videos, more practical information with “augmented reality games” and “social learning”.

When an educational body wants to incur the e-learning method within their system the first question pops out, “How much does e-learning cost?”, it’s not at all an invalid question since we all have encountered many a times situations, where we are either over-charged for the services or don’t get the quality. To know beforehand the estimate of your e-learning cost would help you in many ways. The first-time app development costs are generally high and the ongoing costs are lower. The total costs include the software applications used to create the mobile app, the additional features added, content creation (which is an ongoing process) and the convenient user interface. The answers to cost questions cannot depend on one factor are usually broad and rough at the outset and become clearer once the final output is delivered. E-learning creates a value to the business, a start-up cost, and running costs. Even if you have a pre-defined set budget figure in your mind, yet you must know how much the eLearning costs. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself to make sure you know what you’re paying for and what you’re getting.

How to Develop The e-learning Development

When an educational body wants to incur the e-learning method within their system the first question pops out, “How much does e-learning cost?”, it’s not at all an invalid question since we all have encountered many a times situations, where we are either over-charged for the services or don’t get the quality.

The total costs include the software applications used to create the mobile app, the additional features added, content creation (which is an ongoing process) and the convenient user interface. The answers to cost questions cannot depend on one factor are usually broad and rough at the outset and become clearer once the final output is delivered. E-learning creates a value to the business, a start-up cost, and running costs. Even if you have a pre-defined set budget figure in your mind, yet you must know how much the eLearning costs. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself to make sure you know what you’re paying for and what you’re getting.

• Content Creation

Content creation is the trickiest job since it does not approve the mediocre approach. If your e-Learning company handles the content part than it incurs the additional money to learning cost, since the e-Learning company would have to source, write and review the content. On the contrary, if you provide the content from your end, then you can save a lot of money, in the latter situation your e-learning company would take your raw content and create SCORM compliant eLearning.

• Attractive content

In today’s time, we don’t have enough time to read the theory with no interesting feature set in, such as graphics, narration and easy to relate language. Not every e-Learning developer comes packed with these required features, but you need to put extra efforts to find the one because such developers are hard to find and do not come at a low price. In order to make your e-learning an investment you need to concentrate a little more on the attraction of your content, so the dual task of delivering the learning objective and telling a compelling story, can be confined to your e-learning portal.

• A Global Approach

With the current technology, turning globalized, you would not restrict your platform in your region only; you would market your product as much as you can generate the favorable revenue for your business. You need to pick the developing company, who is well-versed with a professional translation agency, so your content can be translated into different languages. Whichever vendor you choose, you’ll need to make sure that they deal with a professional translation agency. Don’t let your developers rely on Google Translate, although it’s the most favorite tool for most of us, but when it comes to translating the detailed points, are failed to be translated. With this feature, your product would attract a huge number of customers around the world and since you would provide the content in their language, they can build the trust factor with you.

• Different Functions are needed

People find any product more interesting, when it comes exciting and engaging feature, a plain e-learning module would not grab much attention. to make your e-learning module you should include video, animations, and gamification features, and you need a team of eLearning developers with the requisite experience. To imply these features, it would require the services of various minds, who would be skilled in gamification, Instructional Designers, developers, graphic designers, videographers and proofreaders, video presenters, researchers and voice-over artists. Albeit, a simple e-learning module can also be successful, but to add some of the features would attract more customers for an engaging experience. The number and type of courses you will offer that includes video lessons, & texts, etc. You can decrease app development cost by giving preference only to the core features in the first version of the app.

• App Design

A most significant and vital point to decide the cost factor is App Design. A good design (UI & UX design) always motivates the learners to engage with the content and spend more time on the app. It would surely cost a little more, but it would be worth to spend this much amount.

• App Platform

In order to reach vast numbers of audience, create the e-learning platform not focusing on one major platform only, but try to cover as many as possible in the second version, it may cost but you don’t limit your product to the distinct users.

Tools for Developing Web Apps

• IUI
• jQT
• iWebkit:
• Adobe Captivate 7
• Claro
• Lectora Inspire

Tools for Developing Native Apps

• Articulate Storyline
• GoMo Learning
• Phonegap
• Rhodes by Motorola
• Titanium
• Upside2Go

The e-learning trend has changed globally and all the educational or training bodies offer the distance education since it’s not only convenient but also cost-effective as well.

Here are a few questions you should ask yourself to make sure you know what you’re paying for and what you’re getting.

How to Develop The e-learning Development

When an educational body wants to incur the e-learning method within their system the first question pops out, “How much does e-learning cost?”, it’s not at all an invalid question since we all have encountered many a times situations, where we are either over-charged for the services or don’t get the quality. To know beforehand the estimate of your e-learning cost would help you in many ways. The first-time app development costs are generally high and the ongoing costs are lower. The total costs include the software applications used to create the mobile app, the additional features added, content creation (which is an ongoing process) and the convenient user interface. The answers to cost questions cannot depend on one factor are usually broad and rough at the outset and become clearer once the final output is delivered. E-learning creates a value to the business, a start-up cost, and running costs. Even if you have a pre-defined set budget figure in your mind, yet you must know how much the eLearning costs. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself to make sure you know what you’re paying for and what you’re getting.

• Content Creation

Content creation is the trickiest job since it does not approve the mediocre approach. If your e-Learning company handles the content part than it incurs the additional money to learning cost, since the e-Learning company would have to source, write and review the content. On the contrary, if you provide the content from your end, then you can save a lot of money, in the latter situation your e-learning company would take your raw content and create SCORM compliant eLearning.

• Attractive content

In today’s time, we don’t have enough time to read the theory with no interesting feature set in, such as graphics, narration and easy to relate language. Not every e-Learning developer comes packed with these required features, but you need to put extra efforts to find the one because such developers are hard to find and do not come at a low price. In order to make your e-learning an investment you need to concentrate a little more on the attraction of your content, so the dual task of delivering the learning objective and telling a compelling story, can be confined to your e-learning portal.

• A Global Approach

With the current technology, turning globalized, you would not restrict your platform in your region only; you would market your product as much as you can generate the favorable revenue for your business. You need to pick the developing company, who is well-versed with a professional translation agency, so your content can be translated into different languages. Whichever vendor you choose, you’ll need to make sure that they deal with a professional translation agency. Don’t let your developers rely on Google Translate, although it’s the most favorite tool for most of us, but when it comes to translating the detailed points, are failed to be translated. With this feature, your product would attract a huge number of customers around the world and since you would provide the content in their language, they can build the trust factor with you.

• Different Functions are needed

People find any product more interesting, when it comes exciting and engaging feature, a plain e-learning module would not grab much attention. to make your e-learning module you should include video, animations, and gamification features, and you need a team of eLearning developers with the requisite experience. To imply these features, it would require the services of various minds, who would be skilled in gamification, Instructional Designers, developers, graphic designers, videographers and proofreaders, video presenters, researchers and voice-over artists. Albeit, a simple e-learning module can also be successful, but to add some of the features would attract more customers for an engaging experience. The number and type of courses you will offer that includes video lessons, & texts, etc. You can decrease app development cost by giving preference only to the core features in the first version of the app.

• App Design

A most significant and vital point to decide the cost factor is App Design. A good design (UI & UX design) always motivates the learners to engage with the content and spend more time on the app. It would surely cost a little more, but it would be worth to spend this much amount.

• App Platform

In order to reach vast numbers of audience, create the e-learning platform not focusing on one major platform only, but try to cover as many as possible in the second version, it may cost but you don’t limit your product to the distinct users.
