Apps. Apps. Apps. Oh and more apps.
20
So apps are targeted
at the consumer.
21
My business will never need an
app.
I guess.

It’s only a small app,
right?
41
Misconceptions around apps
“Apps are small”
- Apps are part of a bigger entity Can be a stand-alone entity as well
“Apps are islands, they don’t need to interact with all kinds of software and services”
“An app is something we create while we have nothing else going on”
“Once released, they’re in the store/privately deployed so we’re finished”
- Apps need maintenance
- Consumers might be an even more demanding group to deal with
Apps require careful planning and UX interaction
- Developers aren’t always up-to-speed with the guidelines and the different form factors
