UI and UX are terms that sound more complicated
than they actually are. In a nutshell, UX and UI
are the overall feel and look of an application.
UI stands for User Interface, and refers
primarily to the graphic design elements in a
custom mobile app, while user experience refers
to the functionality and ease of use of a custom
mobile app.
Both UX and UI are an integral part of the
process of custom mobile app development and are
pivotal in determining the longevity and success
of an application. Developers of custom mobile
apps have realized that the marketplace today has
an abundance of applications of varying quality
and usability, and employing a cohesive and
uniform design aesthetic, coupled with the
user-friendly interface can give your app the
edge it needs to thrive and sustain itself in the
market.

• Building a successful custom mobile app takes
  thorough and research. Your app should be made
  (in terms of both design and functionality) to
  cater to your target audiences specific needs.
• The effort here is to create a long-lasting
  positive image of your product, and both its UX
  and UI directly contribute to brand image and
  awareness.
• The knowledge base required in delivering UX and
  UI are similar, and sometimes are virtually
  indistinguishable.
• But, it is important to remember that the terms
  are interdependent and not interchangeable.
• They serve different purposes and striking the
  right balance between user experience and user
  interface not only boosts ratings and sales but
  also helps in securing the trust and loyalty of
  your user base.

• Its a common misconception that UI deals solely
  with design aesthetic, but it goes beyond just
  that. UI deals with all the visible functionality
  of your custom mobile app. There are a lot of
  apps out there that look really neat and snazzy.
  But at the same time, users are also looking for
  apps that are easy to navigate and use.
• UX is responsible for the overall functionality,
  content, and usability of your application. The
  focus of any UX Design is to ensure a smooth step
  by step operational flow that is simple and
  uncluttered. UX designers primary driving
  purpose is to find the best way to present the
  product of their target audience so that they
  leave users satisfied in their experience with
  their product.
• Unique and original ideas are all good, but it
  takes carefully planned out and integrated UX and
  UI design for the home run. To get from the
  ideation to service is a transition that only UX
  and UI delivery can do. Custom mobile app
  development needs structured and well thought out
  UX and UI to attain a loyal fan base and
  contributes to making your final product engaging
  and successful.

Give easy access to users

• Know your users preferences to make better UI
  and UX inclusions in your applications. Users do
  not like permissions, form filling and entering
  too many personal details (sometimes none at
  all!). If your app works fine with just email and
  name submissions then do not include extra fields
  just because others do so.
• Errors in the initial stages of development are
  quite normal. Do not be disheartened as your
  design focus must remain in place. In spite of UX
  and UI mistakes/errors continue satisfying your
  users. This is important to become successful in
  the app marketplace.
• Provide Comprehensive solutions to your
  customers. Your audience will fall in love with
  your app once they are able to communicate, share
  and provide feedback. Remain transparent your
  practices to retain users for longer periods of
  time.

Be Simple

• Present your audience with clutter-free, simple,
  and smooth interface designs that can be accessed
  by all people of all age groups.
• The greatest examples are Facebook and WhatsApp.
  Their messenger services are accessed by all and
  sundry!
• Leave out unnecessary features, complicated
  functions, and complex elements.
• Choose to be simple and your success story will
  also be led through a clear and simple path.

Gauge Your Audience

• When building your custom application know your
  target audience, the age groups and geographical
  areas it will be promoted for. If you are
  targeting children create big-sized icons.
• If you have an elderly age group in your mind
  then include clarity and space in your buttons.
  Understanding your target is important in
  reaching out and making people (rightly) aware of
  your brand.
• An efficient UI and UX bring success. Mobile App
  Development companies around the world have
  realized the power of the right branding.
  Providing good support services brings in
  excellent rewards in the form of increased
  downloads and reviews on the app stores.
• So, in upcoming years the UI/UX will lead for
  right branding and for that it involves several
  latest technologies which help the user to
  interact more to their device.

3D Graphics

• One of the hottest trends of the recent year is
  the integration of various 3D graphics into
  mobile and web interfaces.
• Applying this kind of graphics to UI is quite a
  challenge that requires specific skills and
  artistic eye to be crafted well. In addition,
  its time-consuming.
• However, it is definitely eye-catching and users
  will never pass by not noticing it.
• The 3D renders often look photorealistic which is
  a big advantage for user interface design.

Full-Screen Background Images and Video

• Another trend growing its presence, especially in
  UI design for websites, is the usage of
  full-screen background visuals. Those may be
  photos, specially rendered visualizations or even
  videos.
• Such an approach helps to make the screens
  visually and emotionally appealing as well as
  support the integrity of all the layout elements.
• Custom digital illustrations are steadily getting
  more and more presence, especially on web
  interfaces. Featuring a variety of styles, custom
  graphics effectively support the quick perception
  of the information on the page or screen.
• Whats more, they set the solid ground for
  originality. Websites and apps apply custom
  mascots, icons, and illustrations to enhance the
  looks of a page or screen as well as boost
  usability and intuitive navigation. In addition,
  images improve the accessibility of UX design
  pushing the limits of perception for users who
  have natural problems with text recognition.

Visual Storytelling

• The trend of custom graphics has opened a wider
  perspective to storytelling in the interfaces.
  More and more websites and mobile apps turn to
  specially designed characters showing the story,
  setting the atmosphere, sending the message or
  presenting the benefits in the way that
  corresponds to the mood, tone, and voice of the
  platform. Original characters help to make the
  interactions more human-like, set strong visual
  associations with the real world and instantly
  transfer the needed mood.

Buttonless Interactions

• Buttons are still one of the vital elements of UI
  design, yet now we see more creative experiments
  on mobile user experience in the perspective of
  UI interactions without buttons. This approach
  saves the precious space on the screen for more
  information and it is even believed to be the
  initial step to the virtual interfaces based on
  gestures only.

Catchy and Handy UI Animation

• The recent year didnt experience any loss of
  interest in interface animation. Not only does it
  add life and motion to the interaction process
  but also significantly improves usability.
• User experience becomes more informative and
  engaging while manipulations with the elements of
  interaction get more clear and respond to the
  user in an understandable way.

Split Screens

• One of the hot trends in the active usage of
  split screens for both web and mobile interfaces.
  This trend is nothing new??it goes away and
  comes back in various spheres of design, and now
  its definitely back and alive.
• The approach is believed to be effective in terms
  of responsive design as you may play with content
  variations not missing the consistency.

• This year and upcoming years will definitely keep
  on building up the vast diversity and searching
  for effective ways of increasing the usability of
  interfaces. And that is what we find the most
  user-friendly trend.
• Millions of users use apps and websites as a part
  of their daily routine they have different
  tastes and preferences, particular feelings of
  what is comfortable and looks nice for them.
