Good mobile applications should simply provide the same
unctionality and quality that a desktop computer provides: a
perfect balance of device limitation and user environments &
eeds, into a dynamic mix that translates into a multi-faceted
pplication which performs well when you used in the real
world.
Users want to access their data wherever they are.
A good mobile application saves you time. Mobile
applications should be designed to make your life easier.
The application should save your time, eort or stress.
A good mobile application should have a small memory
footprint, as limitations of mobile devices especially
memory put limitations on mobile applications.
Good mobile applications promote the
feeling of freedom: do what you want to
do, when you want to do it, whenever
you want to do it.
Mobile applications should t the
user more closely than a desktop
application.
Good mobile applications
seamlessly integrate with
the user's desktop computer.
