With the development of the mobile Internet, major APP platforms have also sprung up. Now the mainstream APP platforms on the market have basically supported the development of multiple platforms such as IOS, Android, WP, etc., but for those who just want to focus on making a For APP companies, they can only choose to develop an APP on one platform. For example, Tencent’s WeChat and QQ can only use one. But this will cause many customers to only use one APP at the same time, which will be very inconvenient for users. So how to achieve multi-platform compatibility in APP development? Let's take a look together.
1. Understand the agreements and regulations of each platform
1. Android phones are the mainstream of application software at present. The current mainstream Android systems include Google Android and Huawei EMUI.
2. IOS is a mobile operating system launched by Apple. Apple has strict management and restrictions on its applications. Therefore, if you want to develop an APP on IOS, you must pass the review of Apple.
3. The WP system is a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft. It supports many systems, and users can choose according to their own needs. However, because it is not as strict as the iOS system, it is relatively easy to develop apps on WP.
2. Fully communicate with customers
1. The platforms that users want to use are different, so users need different apps. When developing apps, in order not to lose customers, it is necessary to fully communicate with customers, so that customers can understand their environment and their needs.
2. After the development is completed, a test should be carried out. In addition to checking whether the APP can run normally, the test should also test whether the APP can run on various platforms. In order to ensure that the APP can run normally, it is also necessary to fully communicate with customers during the testing process, so that customers can understand their environment and user needs.
3. If the APP can run normally on various platforms, it means that the APP development is successful. If the user can't use it normally, then it needs to be adjusted. Note, however, that adjustments will take time.
3. Have a strong technical support team
Whether developing one APP or developing multiple APPs at the same time, a strong technical support team is required. Therefore, if you want to achieve multi-platform compatible development, you must have a professional technical team and formulate a complete technical solution. In the development process, it is necessary to ensure the correctness of the technical solution and to do a good job of after-sales service at any time, so as to better ensure the smooth progress of multi-platform compatible development.
4. Don’t have too high expectations for new platforms
Today, many companies have achieved multi-platform compatibility through APP development, but for some relatively small companies, they cannot expect to develop through a single APP. Therefore, when developing an app, it is necessary to have a correct estimate of the market development and not to have too high expectations for the new platform. Otherwise, even if the platform is built, it will not be able to bring good returns because it is not suitable for your own products.
5. Test and continuously optimize the platform
APP development is not a one-off thing, but a long-term process. Therefore, after the APP development is completed, it is necessary to test and optimize the APP several times. Only in this way can we ensure whether the functions of the APP can meet the needs of users, so that users can use the APP normally. For some user feedback problems, it is also necessary to make timely improvements and optimizations.
To sum up, in order to achieve multi-platform compatibility in APP development, we need to have certain technical strength, and we must pay attention to the above five aspects when developing, so as to ensure the smooth progress of APP development. Therefore, in order to improve product quality, we must choose a professional and powerful company for cooperation.
