The app developers consider the cloud technology option because they are supportive of the cross-platform structure. That means the cloud based apps will be run on devices with the same features and data. Synchronization and Integration are two key areas, sought by the skilled app developers, for building apps that runs on multiple platforms. Advantage of choosing this platform lies in the fact that the app developers have access to many tools during development, integration, testing and deployment phases. The result is that the developers will save considerable time and the apps will be able to make a faster appearance in the market.

Beacon Technology

Beacon Technologies is another of the trending technologies that the app developers consider in 2017. They are able to manage multi-functionality devices and has the ability to perform several tasks. Location based tracking, is one the salient feature of the beacon technology, in pursuit of finding the previous location of the user.

Wireless Charging

Energy is transferred between two objects through electromagnetic induction, with an electromagnetic field through this trending technology. So, the users will not need to charge their batteries or plug any wires with such devices. The advantage of the app developers lies in the fact that plenty of software will be needed to be developed based on this emerging technology.

All the above technologies are going to shape the mobile app development market of the future. The app developers are encouraged to utilize these technologies, encashing the opportunities provided by these groundbreaking technologies, ensuring them to stay on the side of the cutting edge technologies. Mobile apps based on such technologies will be too tempting to be refused by the user.
