1. Virtual Reality

• The game was launched in the year 2016, and it
  stirred the entire gaming marketplace. What was
  so special about Pokemon was that it was powered
  by advanced augmented reality.
• Following the success of Pokemon, many new games
  and apps have been launched in the Augmented
  Reality and Virtual Reality space.
• These apps games happen to be more
  entertaining and immersive than their

  in this sector in 2018.

2. Internet of Things

• The concept of Internet of Things (IOT) has
  continuously risen since it got into the
  limelight.
• IOT combines various physical objects with
  electronic technology, like your smartphone. As
  an example, when someone rings your bell you can
  see a live video stream from your doorstep on
  your smartphone.
• This way, you can decide whether it is safe for
  you to open the door or not. Fitness bands are
  also a good example of this concept.
• The physical band captures your physical activity
  and transmits that to an app on your smartphone.
  This mobile application development trend is
  expected to grow further in 2018.

  hardware ecosystem.

  generation of MacBooks.

• We have all talked about Big Data at some time or
  the other. Businesses are now dealing with large

• Mobile application development has, in fact,
  increased the amount of data that businesses can
  generate.
• New mobile apps that are going to launch in 2018
  will strive to use this mobile generated data for
  behavior and predictive analysis.

5. Search within Apps

• Google Search is extremely popular. Have you ever
  heard someone ask you to google something? In
  other words, Google is now being used
  interchangeably for searching online.
• This has been possible because of the many new
  and innovative concepts that Google has presented
  to its users. One new concept that is expected to
  come out in 2018 is this search engines In App
  section.
• This section will be presented with the regular
  search bar. This will allow its users to search
  from within the multiple apps installed on that
  device.
• The search will not happen on the cloud, and
  hence you can use the feature even when you are
  offline.
