Digital Health Care Revolution: Fitness-App Development The digital healthcare revolution is fueled by fitness apps that promote healthier lifestyles through real-time tracking and personalized insights. These apps integrate AI, wearables, and telehealth features to monitor activity, diet, and overall wellness. With rising demand, fitness-app development is reshaping preventive healthcare worldwide. Covid-19 has taught many lessons to humans. One of them is that Health Care centers and their workers are praiseworthy, and without them, the world would have lost billions till now. And the great cities and their roads would have become graveyards. We have all collectively restricted and kept Covid-19 under control. But Health Care sector’s contribution and sacrifices are too huge to be undermined. Today’s Health Care industry was able to achieve such a feat only with digitalization’s aid. Latest technologies Bringing Revolution In Health & Fitness-App Development. Take, for instance, Australia was able to virtualize millions of people’s records within a year, and more than 4 million digital prescriptions were issued. Pharmacists were also quick to heed to this challenge and were able to address the prescriptions with the medicines without causing much inconvenience to the patients. Much to the surprise, they had to face floods that were so devastating. Tens of thousands of people had to move to shelters. Most of them were on some or the other medication. Shelter homes had surplus medicines. But they did not know what medicines and the dosage that patient was prescribed to intake, to administer it, because it was an emergency, the refugees did not have their prescriptions with them. The rescue teams were looking for ways to get their hands on the respective prescriptions, to administer the medicines to the refugees before it was too late. All efforts of the rescue teams were not enough to collect all the necessary prescriptions on time. With the digitalized patients’ database, everything was sorted with just a few clicks. Within an hour or so, the shelter homes were able to administer medicine to everyone that was in need. Let us now discuss some of the Digital Technologies that are leading the Mobile App Development revolution of the Health Care Sector. * TeleClinic * Digital Records * Fitbits, Digital Blood Suger Analyzer, and other devices * Robotic Surgery * Virtual Diagnostics * VR Training for Doctors * Smart Implants * Medical Vending Machine * Smart Labs All the above technologies reduce the waiting periods, costs, admissions, errors and provide many more benefits. Following shows the key trends shaping the healthcare industry: Like all new technologies, they also need to be taught to the personnel who will use Digital Health Technologies. And it is cost-friendly, but it takes a decent amount of time for the personnel to be productive. On the Concluding note, I would like to add that it is intriguing and unbelievable to see such wonderful inventions coming to life in our age, like VR Surgery training sessions. And a lot more are on the to make our lives very easy and Healthy. The online food ordering system is not a perfect solution for every restaurant. Restaurant owners should consider their strengths and weaknesses before implementing this system. The system is not suitable for restaurants, which are not as it requires a lot of technological know-how to be successful. You probably noticed that when you order food online. You have to pay delivery charges. But often, these fees are hidden in the final price. And we do not even realize how much we give. The online food ordering system is becoming increasingly popular, with more and more people turning to the internet to order their meals. However, this popularity has some drawbacks like high competition and delivery charges. If you are looking for a restaurant with a limited and irregular menu, this is no place for you. The selection of food items changes often. That can be frustrating for customers who are trying to order their favorites. In addition, the limited number of items available can make it arduous to find something that everyone will enjoy. If you are looking for a hot and fresh meal, you might be disappointed if your food gets cold en route. It can happen if the restaurant is too far from your destination or the delivery boy takes too long. Irresponsible delivery boys can also cause your food to get cold. Excessive production at restaurants can often lead to waste, as cooks prepare more food than necessary to meet demand.

There are many factors which have contributed to this humongous rise in the mobile apps demand however, the prominent one is the rise in the number of Cross Platform App Development frameworks. Mobile apps help businesses to brand and connect with customers by push notifications, customized offers, and gain insights on customer behavior. To leverage these benefits, many businesses want to build their own apps in this new-age digital economy. Although Android or iOS App Development is a time-consuming process, we are here to help you with the steps involved in a successful app development. 1. Application Objective: Application objective is the actual reason why the application is being developed. It is very important to have a clear objective in mind for making the application so that the team and people involved are focused and aligned in that direction and avoid wasting effort in creating un-necessary features. 2. Feature List: This is the next step after deciding on the Application Objective. Depending upon on the application objective, you decide on the important functionalities you want to have in the application to achieve the objective. Deciding limited but all-important features is important as that will save a lot of un-necessary development time and cost and will also refrain bombarding un-necessary features to the users. 3. Market and Gap Analysis: This is one of the important steps to making a successful application. Market research helps you to understand the good as well as bad offerings by the competition.

Embrace Digital Transformation With DevOps
Embrace Digital Transformation With DevOps In the recent years, something which has drawn everyone’s attention in Mobile App Development Company is DevOps. It’s a latest buzzword in the industry, however very few people know what exactly it is all about and have really excelled in implementing it. Successful implementation of DevOps means giving a leading edge to the organization in terms of competition, quality, market readiness, optimizing process etc. Today, in this blog, we’ll try to briefly describe what DevOps is. Mobile apps help businesses to brand and connect with customers by push notifications, customized offers, and gain insights on customer behavior. To leverage these benefits, many businesses want to build their own apps in this new-age digital economy. Although Android or iOS App Development is a time-consuming process, we are here to help you with the steps involved in a successful app development. DevOps is a culture in an IT industry that seeks to promote the collaboration between development and operation teams, which traditionally used to work in silos and create multiple problems in the project due to lack of communication and combined ownership. By removing these silos between different IT teams, DevOps proposes to improve the situation by adopting a product-centric approach that emphasizes automation and tooling to speed up, and make safer, the mechanical tasks of testing and deploying software. Above we have understood the ‘’why’’ of DevOps, now we’ll see ‘’who’’ all is involved in this. There are mainly 3 teams which are involved in any IT project, these are, the development team, QA team and the Operations team. Prior to the concept of DevOps, often these teams used to work in silos as none of them knew each other, and the coordination between them was virtually non-existent. Development team writes the code/module and then send it to the QA team for bugs identification, who in return send it back to the development team with defects to be fixed. At this point, the blame game starts between these 2 teams. Finally, after much deliberation, the module/code once approved by the earlier teams goes to the operations team, who has their own set of problems to handle. The friction between these teams unnecessarily stretches the development cycle, thus impacting the time to market of the product. At this point, DevOps helps in establishing a common understanding & communication between the Web Application Development Services cross functional teams right from the start of the project thus, nipping issues in the bud. Benefits Of DevOps: 1. Faster Time To Market: DevOps help in faster time to market for any software release. This also helps in improving the ROI and reduce the development costs. 2. Transparent: DevOps helps in establishing an early and better communication better communication channel/process between various teams, hence, leading to better transparency among the teams. 3. Early Error Detection: When teams are involved from the initial stage, you get the wholistic perspective of the project. Hence, understanding and foreseeing the issues at the initial stages is possible. 4. Continuous Release: Agile development requires continuous release of the software/app. DevOps helps in achieving this objective as teams are working in close collaboration in this setup. 5. Better Employee Engagement: With more interaction and better communication across teams, employees are happier, which ultimately increases their productivity. The Various Phases of DevOps Lifecycle Are: 1. Planning And Coding As the name suggest, planning of the features that needs to be included is discussed in detail in this planning phase. Once the planning is over, development is initiated which could be in any programming language. 2. Integration And Testing In this phase, continuous integration and continuous testing is carried out. Developer updates the changes the code in the standard directory which is shared with the testers. The Quality Assurance team then tests this code and provide continuous feedback to the developer. 3. Delivery This phase ensures that the code is always ready for release. Continuous delivery ensures that at any point in time, the code is in a state to be released successfully. 4. Monitoring And Feedback The entire process is closely monitored, and continuous feedback is provided to the respective team(s), so that the correction is done at the initial stages only, and no surprises are there in the last moment. Important Tools used in DevOps are: 1. Source code repository 2. Build server 3. Configuration management 4. Test Automation CONCLUSION: DevOps is changing the way we work with iPhone App Development and Android Mobile App Development thus giving development team an edge by using smart and automated processes to produce the best possible application. Now as the teams are coming together, the process is much faster and much more accurate that standardizes coding, testing, and other activities so that the final product contains secure, efficient, robust, and reliable code.

Xamarin Vs Flutter: Best cross-platform application development framework?
Xamarin Vs Flutter: Best cross-platform application development framework? In the last decade, there has been a tremendous growth in the mobile industry especially regarding the Mobile App Development, and this is increasing. According to one of the reports, there are more than 3 billion smartphone users in the world and this number is increasingly rapidly every year. Majority of these smartphone are based on either iOS platform backed by Apple, or Android platform backed by Google. There are number of programming languages which can be used to develop the mobile application in these platforms. Xamarin and Flutter are such cross-platform development frameworks, which can be used to develop a cross-platform application. As these are most trending and growing technologies, we have done a quick comparison of them to help you with the best choice for your next Cross-Platform App Development Framework Overview: Xamarin is one of the leading open source cross-platform development framework which uses C# as the programming language is backed by Microsoft. Xamarin was founded in 2011 and was acquired by Microsoft in 2016, which later made it an open source platform, and now it has become an integral part of the Xamarin Visual Studio IDE. Flutter is also an open source free cross-platform development framework tool which uses Dart as the programming language and is designed by Google to create high performance Android and iOS Mobile Applications. It provides a single code, which is also the case in Xamarin. Technical Architecture: For its iOS and Android platforms, Xamarin uses Mono as it execution environment. In iOS platform, Mono runs along with the Objective-C on UNIX kernel, however, in android it runs along with Android run time on Linux. As its backed by Microsoft, Microsoft has provided a detailed documentation to technical architecture used for Android and iOS in Xamarin.The Dart framework of Flutter uses Skia engine which is bigger in size as it has most of the components inbuilt and hence, usually doesn’t require a bridge to communicate with the native modules. The architecture of Flutter is explained in detailed in GitHub wiki. Overall, Flutter has a better technical architecture in place than Xamarin as it has most of the native components inbuilt in its framework itself. Community Support: Since Xamarin is an old cross-platform framework, it has huge community base all across the world. There’s a huge number of developers who uses Xamarin and hence, it is has a huge community forums to discuss the issues, problems, events, updates etc. Xamarin also actively organizes events like Xamarin development summit to keep its community active and strong. Though Flutter is new, but the growth it is shown is very promising. It actually started gaining developer’s attention only after 2017. Even Flutter is organizing events like meet-ups, conferences and Flutter Live to keep increasing it developer base. Though rapidly growing, Flutter has a developer base which is lot lesser than Xamarin. UI Design: Xamarin uses platform specific native UI components for the platform specific apps using Xamarin.android and Xamarin.iOS. Advantage of this approach is it provides greater amount of flexibility and native like look for the cross-platform apps.Flutter uses two different widgets for each of the platforms, for Android Mobile App Development it uses (Material widgets) and for iOS it uses (Cupertino Widgets). Using Skia graphics library, Flutter creates its own GUI components and hence, doesn’t use any native GU components. Hence, this is more advantageous to the developers for customization.Looking at the current rate of growth, undoubtedly Flutter is the future considering its feature richness and ease to use. The only advantage Xamarin has at this point in time the existing huge developer base and the strong community support, which we are sure Flutter will catch-up with in the coming years.

Cross-Platform App Development Framework
Cross-Platform App Development Framework Today approximately 2 million apps exist on Google Play and App Store respectively. In this ever-evolving Mobile App Development ecosystem, this number is expected to increase by 180% by 2020.In such a competitive and ever evolving world, no company can risk missing their presence on either platform. The challenge to this is the cost of development, maintenance and up-gradation of the native apps. Hence, to counter these challenges cross-platform app development has emerged as the first choice of businesses so that with single code base the app can be developed for Android and iOS. What is Cross-App Platform Framework? Cross-platform App Development frameworks provide developers with the ability to code only once which runs on multiple platforms, thereby enabling them to release a product/software faster, safer and with better quality. What’s the Difference between Native and Cross-Platform App Development? The Benefits of Cross-Platform App development: Native v/s cross-platform is an eternal altercation which has divided the tech community for years now. However, as it’s a debatable topic, some experts prefer native apps over cross-platform apps, on the other hand, some experts prefer the other way round.Since both these App Development technologies are in a constant state of evolution this topic needs to be revisited from time to time to check which of these options is currently leading the game. Cross-Platform Mobile Development Comparison: Now that we have seen the importance of cross-platform development frameworks, let’s review the available frameworks, which are – Flutter, React Native and Xamarin. Xamarin It’s a cross-platform framework with C# and native platform libraries wrapped in a .NET layer, consisting of three major components: Xamarin Platform, Xamarin Cloud, and Xamarin Insights.Xamarin Platform offers APIs, controls, runtime engines, encryption, authentication, virtual machines, and much more. Xamarin Cloud offers automated testing platform on multiple devices, whereas, Xamarin Insights is a monitoring tool that helps developers in tracking application crashes and exceptions. React Native React Native is an open source mobile development framework allowing developers to develop iOS and Android applications with JavaScript and a handful of native component APIs. The React Native framework implements a selection of native UI components, means the applications will look like native apps and in fact if done correctly, a React Native app is hardly distinguishable from a native app. Scenarios where substantial customization is needed, the advantage of working within React Native’s abstraction layer lessens to the point where in some cases developing the app natively would be more beneficial. Futter Flutter is Google’s mobile app development SDK which comes with a complete framework, widgets, and tools, thus, giving developers an easy way to build and deploy visually impressive, fast processing mobile apps on both Android and iOS App Development platforms, hence, one codebase for both platforms. Flutter uses Dart and a collection of native widgets to create stunning cross platform apps.It’s developed and supported by Google and has already gained a lot of popularity and strong community presence, hence, Flutter is considered the best tool for cross platform mobile development. Mobile application development platforms comparison Now that you’re well equipped with all the information, depending upon your project need you can select the best way to develop cross platform mobile apps in your case. You can choose either Flutter, Xamarin, React Native, or a native mobile app development framework.

Usage & implementation Of Offline Functionality In Mobile Application Development
Usage & implementation Of Offline Functionality In Mobile Application Development There are more mobile devices in the world than the total number of computers and television units combined. With the rapid adoption of smartphones and tablets, there’s a radical change in the way how the majority of business owners deliver their services or products to clients: they consider mobile apps as a way to the significant improvement of their customer service. We belong to a time where users are dependent on apps in turn; these apps are dependent on internet connectivity for running all functionalities. This dependency of mobile apps on the internet restricts its access and makes it difficult to use in different locations. ‘Offline-first’ is a development approach ensuring that an app works as smooth offline as it does online. Creating an offline-first app, in the right context, ensures a more reliable and faster experience, retaining users and providing a better user experience for your customers. With forward-planning, user-first thinking, and offline-first approach, it’s possible to offer a fast and high-quality user experience “offline”. Making an App work Offline? Most apps require an internet connection, but as they often access the data that doesn’t change frequently, apps don’t really need to be connected to internet all the times. Hence, in such apps, an ‘always-on’ connection to the server is not needed. If an app only has to go to the server when it needs to, rather than all the time, it will be faster and more reliable. ‘Offline-first’ apps make it possible to move content off the server and onto the phone only when needed. Thus, providing fast access to the users and increasing their user experience. An example of the same is any online shopping app which you’re trying to access from a remote poor internet location. In a traditional online app, filling your cart needs the app to go back and forth to the server all the time: because of the poor connection, it’s slow and frustrating. Offline-first moves the content (the shopping app’s directory of products) to the app, thus speeding up the shopping experience. You only need to go online to complete the payment and schedule of the delivery. By moving some of the server-stored content to the app, the whole user experience is faster, smoother and more reliable. Should your app be offline-first? It is a very context specific whether your app should be offline-first. Below mentioned are the three most common reasons for going offlineUsage of your app in areas of poor connectivity: For mobile app development in offline mode, it is important to consider if the app is likely going to be used in areas of poor signal or with limited WiFi connectivity. A happy app without any network hindrance makes the life of a user easier, it is even relevant for users who travel frequently and cannot depend on having a reliable mobile signal. Enterprise-focused productivity apps are one such candidate that can help make our lives a little bit easier and more productive Huge directory of content in your app, accessible via a search function: One cannot depend on slow or unreliable web connection while searching large volumes of online data; it can be time-consuming and can result in a user experience that’s slow and frustrating. This problem is not limited to shopping apps but also affect other mobile game development, utility. To improve your UX in terms of accessibility and speed it is recommended to implement lightweight version of an online database. Your app has limited features and does not require online functionality: It is worth realizing whether your app needs an internet connection for performing its key features. Many applications need go back to internet each time they log a menu option, even ones you consume regularly. Such processes make the app slower and users who want to perform simple operation, in a single transaction this is definitely not helpful for them. As a feasible option data could be downloaded to the app periodically, thus making the UX smoother and fast. Pixel Values Technolabs is one of the top Mobile App Development Company providing Digital Marketing services to the clients worldwide along with the mobile and web app development services. Development of an app offline shows a mobile app design and development challenge but for certain apps gains made in user experience outweighed the costs of offline-first thinking.Not just one, there are many offline apps that made the lives of people simple and easier, success stories even when the internet is absent: Netflix Even in poor connection Netflix started entertaining its users across the globe by allowing its accessibility. As announced, one can download their favorite TV shows and movies on their mobile device using internet and watch them later anytime/anywhere being offline. Google Maps Google Maps a web based service is a best example of offline app which allows users to download pre-set area of their map and then allow them to access detailed maps and directions from anywhere. In case of emergency users can navigate on Google maps without internet connection. Conclusion With offline-first approach no matter what the quality of the internet connection is, the performance of your app will be stable which is indeed the most important for the user experience.

5 Emerging IoT Trends That Will Define The Future
5 Emerging IoT Trends That Will Define The Future Undoubtedly a drastic change is going to come in the world of internet technology with the invention on IoT. Before going into the specifications of IoT Technology, Lets first understand what exactly IoT is. To start with, we have the full form i.e. Internet of things. As the name it makes it very clear that there is no human interface in this technology. Not even human to machine nor machine to human. It’s all about fully internet and the things technology can do. There are hundreds of software, hardware and connectivity technologies that are relevant for IoT-type projects. In this post, we will talk about the top 5 most emerging IoT technologies which can be utilized for IoT application development. IoT Operating Systems Traditional operating systems like windows and mac running in the market will be out soon as they are complex in nature and require resources for the majority of IoT applications so ultimately cannot IoT. Whereas other small operating system will be in the market very soon by the mid of 2020 as they are all event driven and therefore, businesses can be benefited a lot by it and don’t have to spend extra resources on IoT Application Development on traditional operating systems. Platform Fragmentation As we all know that IoT is still a very young concept in the market, so it has been suffering from market fragmentation. The biggest challenge in Breaking up makes the task of developing applications much harder. It is in consideration of both, hardware variations and differences in the software running on them. With the flow of venture capital dollars running to IoT, there has been an arrival of organizations and solutions on the market, creating a much divided view within the IoT ecosystem. As a consequence, this fragmentation has become one of the confrontation in adopting IoT. IoT Smart Home Devices management: In a busy and running life of any individual, IoT has brought the biggest boon, although it may sound lazy, but it’s certainly true. If you have the smart home, it allows the owner to manage and monitor a wide range of verticals like security, home monitoring, room controls, and energy efficiency. To explain in one line, with the help of IoT one can shut down the AC of his bedroom while sitting in the office cabin or in cab to airport. Companies like Samsung with its Samsung smart fridge & media controllers, and Google home are already adding a great deal of ease into their customer’s life. Low-Power, Short-Range IoT Networks: So before planning to merge the Blockchain technology into mobile app development project ask our professionals at Pixel Values to explore its worth with a few helpful resources regarding the same. Low-Power, Wide-Area Networks: Traditional cellular networks don’t deliver an honest combination of technical features and operational cost for those IoT applications that require wide-area coverage combined with relatively low bandwidth, good battery life, low hardware and operating expense, and high connection density. Emerging standards like narrow band IoT will likely dominate this space.
