Build something people want and need Analyze who your target market is Who are they, and does your app fit into their lives?
1. Don ’ t get so married in your ideas that you aren ’ t looking or open to ways to make it better 2. Don ’ t get caught up in planning so much that you don ’ t ever begin. Some of the best ideas come after you touch and feel and hold
First impressions matter
Don ’ t make it hard for me to solve my problem I will come back if you made it easy for me
The only apps that can get away with this are brands that have already gotten your trust
You have 30 seconds on repeat usage as well
People are bound to do things wrong, help them figure out how to fix it
Figure out how to build it for one orientation to see if people will even use your app
Unless your target market is all on old OSs, don ’ t worry about it
Your first idea isn ’ t the best, so figure out what ’ s wrong with it
