The part of tablets will be about 35% of the income from mobile applications

Despite the fact that tablets are quite a new category of devices they have already managed to overtake the number of web page views on smartphones and their insight into everyday life increases very quickly. That’s why it is a surprise that the income of mobile applications for tablets also increases and according to the analysts in five years it will beat the income of applications for smartphones.

ABI Research predicts that this year the part of tablets will be more than one third (35%) of the whole income from mobile applications – and this is 8,8 billion from 25 billion dollar “pie”. However the amount is significantly lower that the income from applications for smartphones which is going to reach 16,4 billion dollars this year according to predictions. However ABI believes that tablets will beat the income of smartphones already in 2018 – i.e. in nearest five years.

The reasons of such quick increase of the income from applications for tablets ABI calls big screens of this type of devices that developers may use to create attractive products and invention of inexpensive tablets that contribute the level of insight of such devices and the number of downloads of applications for them.

The experts also add that the category of tablets has a good position in computer device market so it can reach new demographic groups – children and elderly people.

Concerning mobile operating systems ABI predicts that this year the main part of income will belong to Apple iOS – 65% of the whole income, Android will generate a little more than a quarter – 27%. The part of other mobile platforms will be only 8% of income (the accurate sharing among certain mobile OS was not mentioned).

Despite the leading position in income the part of Apple iOS according to the latest predictions will be only 33% of downloads of applications for smartphones, Android will generate 58% of downloads.

Mobile apps can help you manage all sorts of tasks without having to log into your computer and make your online business much more accessible to different groups of users.

So here are some of the benefits you get when you start using business apps for you iPhone:
Creating awareness of your business. An app with you logo on it means that potential customers will see it on a regular basis and will recognize it.

Providing accessibility. Mobile apps development made sure that your potential customers can find you at any place any time. Nowadays people more and more use their mobile devices to shop and consume other services online, so accessibility is extremely important.

Retaining customers. If you offer discounts to the customers who buy your goods via iPhone apps, they are most likely to stick with your company and with your app.

Sending notifications. With the help of this feature you will be able to send instant notifications about special offers to your customers.

Maintaining customer relationship. Business apps built by florida software companies allow not only advertising and promoting services, but also get feedback from clients.

Business and management apps are not the only iPhone apps that are available to users. Programs for billing and communication, games, lifestyle and productivity apps – all these custom made applications Florida iPhone developers are ready to offer to the users.

The main perk of working with professional apps developers is that they completely get the situation on the market of iPhone applications: if you have an interesting idea you better make it come to life pretty fast, otherwise your idea will lose your topicality pretty soon.
