Turn your ecommerce stores into mobile commerce apps

In the past few years, the mobile user base has swelled up immensely all around the world. With this hulking increase in numbers, the use of mobile applications has also exploded significantly. Most users are inclined essentially towards the convenient mobile apps rather than accessing the web-based eCommerce websites and other online sites. As per the Statistic reports, the overall value of mobile commerce apps is expected to hit $700 billion by the end of the year 2019. However, the rising graph of the overall mobile usage is so sharp and rapid that it is likely to soon override these estimated figures.

 

Nevertheless, the fact that mobile applications are user-oriented, convenient, and handy to use, further contributes to the successfulness of these applications.

 

The paramount factors why these eCommerce mobile apps have been hitting the all-time highs are mainly because:

 

Easy To Use

 

The users and customers find mobile apps painless to use as compared to the web-based applications and websites. Therefore, the popularity and saleability of these mobile commerce apps have proliferated so rapidly.

 

Moreover, these apps require just a one-time sign-in and can be left logged-on in the mobile phones. Whereas, for the web-based eCommerce websites, every time a user operates the app, logging in is an obligatory process.

Convenient

 

The mobile commerce apps are indubitably convenient since the customers straightforwardly need to sign up, log in, and manage the app without any extra charges or additional steps.

 

Further to this, they can also access the apps on the go and order anything online regardless of the time & place, thereby, implementing ‘mobility’ to the fullest.

 

Preferred By Users

 

Rather than placing orders online on a website, many users opt for a mobile app. Hence, a majority of the eCommerce websites are advancing to the app-based businesses, and have been attracting more customers throughout their way.

 

Turning From eCommerce Websites To Mobile Apps

 

Platform Identification

 

From Wordpress plugins like WooCommerce to the enterprise-grade and full-fledged content management systems like Magento, there are a handful of eCommerce platforms available in the market for building intuitive websites.

 

However, when it comes to developing a brand new app out of a website made from any of these frameworks, figuring out the right platform is very crucial.

 

Generating Consistent Feel and Look

 

Since we are holding on to the existing eCommerce websites and online stores that the customers are fully accustomed to, it will be a smart move to preserve the familiar look of the entire surrounding of the websites and mobile apps.

 

A consistent look is vital and equally important for the sole purpose of branding as any uncalled changes might alienate the existing customers.

 

API Development and Integration

 

The process of mobile app development becomes more convenient and easy with a constant favor from the closed structured software. Therefore, a compact and tight integration of all the API components is essential for a seamless mobile commerce apps development.

 

Besides, using the right and robust API integration tends to make the user information as well as the server-side secure and safe.

In a few years, almost every enterprise will jump into the development of mobile apps with the same or even better functionality as compared to their websites.
