What pops to mind when you think about productivity killers? Social media will certainly appear among the most common answers. CareerBuilder carried out a survey among employees to figure out what factors prevented them from being productive. Nearly 38 percent of the respondents said that social media were to blame. This isn’t the survey leader, however. Smartphones are the main culprit for diminished productivity according to 50 percent of the respondents.
We live in a very dynamic corporate world and fast execution is becoming determining for employment success and the chance to experience career growth. The number of distractions, however, is also growing.
The efficacies of smartphones have got a major boost thanks to the vast repository of apps.
It is important to understand the choice of the users; so, make a thorough study of the popular apps already existing in your category and judge why they are liked by people.
Follow the customer reviews on the competitor apps to learn about the compliments and complaints.
Send e-mails to your business network with the details and a video demo of your app, and request them to share it in the social media.
While promoting your app, remember that content is the master of all promotions.
A number of apps already being in the market, focus on why the one you promote is special and why people should use it.
8 social media applications were accused of compromising with the user privacy and details handling.
Even giant social media apps like Instagram and Twitter were not spared by the consumer for not protecting the user’s privacy.
They find an iOS feature integrated with these apps ‘Find Friends’ which automatically uploads the user’s contact list on the companies serve without any legal consent.
The 8 apps include Twitter, Instagram, Yelp, Foursquare, Kik, Foodspotting, Gowalla, and Path.
All these apps need to compensate the consumers with the amount of $5.3.
These companies gave almost for five years to convince the judge that it was necessary to upload contact list for the feature to work.
And by ‘know’ I mean actually that a person is just familiar with the concept.
You can either create your app from scratch or make money through advertising via already existing social media apps.
The MVP will cost you a lot less than the final app and it should include all the essential features and functions that represent the purpose of your product.
Don’t forget to include the analytical tools in your social media app.
For example, to build a full-fledged social media native iOS app you should learn the Objective-C or Swift language and write a backend code which can be in Ruby on Rails, MVC PHP frameworks or Python, or any other server programming language.
