Mobile First: The Next Generation of Applications.


Future Belongs to Mobile First Applications. Why?
  • India will have more than 200 mn Smart Phone users by 2015. 
  • With increased penetration of 3G and 4G, high speed data connections will be the norm across India. Thus, all users will prefer to use MOBILE as first choice of device. 
  • Even today, any business user spends much more time on a mobile device- checking mails, messages, whatsapp- rather than on a PC or a laptop.

THUS, all future application have to assume 80% mobile usage and 20% web usage. 

What do we mean by Mobile First applications? These are applications designed PRIMARILY for Mobile device, but also have an extension into Web.
