Tips For App Development For Federal Agencies

What it requires when it comes to development of mobile application for a federal agency

? Should the process be as similar the one is used for others? No, it should not be. It is the responsibility of a mobile application developer to lay strong foundation for digitizing governments procedures. This article covers 4 critical elements that all mobile application development firms must look at before developing apps for federal agencies. Here we go:

Simplicity is still the best policy

The KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid) approach is the best method to build an app for a federal agency. Many developers will argue that it does not work, but not in the case of government. The flow of task must not span multiple numbers of steps. If possible, make the process executable in 2-3 steps.

Let your work be criticized

If you fear of criticism, you cannot grow. Yes, it is often difficult to hear anything against your work, but on the positive side, criticism gives you scope to turn your work from good to better, to best. The same theory is also applicable on mobile application development. You should allow user to give you the feedback. As you know, users come from diverse backgrounds, e.g. technical, non-technical, gaming, non-gaming, artist, educationalist etc. Their feedback would definitely help you find the portions to be tuned.

Serviceability

How serviceable is your app? Does it fulfill the purpose it is made for? Simplicity does not mean you remove all necessary features to make your app simple. Many developers do not often give enough attention during the design phase of a mobile app. Serviceability is equated with function. For most apps, a test by 5 year old child can help you realize how serviceable your app is. If a five year old child can easily navigate through screens, input the date and does not lose his temper while getting result, consider your mobile application development is on the right track. Such app can also help those users who have never used a mobile app.

Publish

Publishing the app is as important as the previous phases you have passed through. Many consider that publishing an app for federal agency is similar to publishing it for other domains. You must not forget that there are millions of apps across app stores and there is hardly a chance that your tiny app will be discovered automatically. Government apps require promotion, which, apart from your side, should also be done from the side of the government agency. Social media is great place to tell users that the particular department now offers its services on Android or iPhone. Most government agencies have profile on social sites.
