Mobile App Clarity
Mobile App Clarity
Be cautious of apps – not all are what they seem or are created equal. An app aims to create opportunities that extend services, promote opportunities, and ultimately generate income. To better understand apps is the realization that it costs money to develop and maintain an app. The point taken here is not free to create.
I recommend going with a paid app than one for free. Paid apps are less likely to take advantage of you as they recoup their costs from direct payment. Free apps need to find a way to generate income to offset expenses. These apps can generate income by luring you into paying for an upgrade, reselling information gathered from your device, or creating access to your device. Downloading a free app can be like walking across a minefield – you never know what will happen.
Stay away from unpopular apps and those with bad ratings. Always take a moment to read the comments people post about the app. Better to let others investigate the app first.
Entertainment apps like games are generally safe as they generate income through upgrades and add-on features. Be prepared to be bombarded and strategically forced to make purchases to succeed in the game.
For security reasons, I recommend sticking with apps that companies reside within your country. Know who you support, conduct business with, and communicate with. This a quick reminder that apps will have access privileges to your mobile device and its information.
Managing your mobile apps is just as crucial as being selective about the ones you decide to use. Apps not or infrequently used should always move to the top of the list for removal. The goal is to minimize access to your mobile device and maximize security, performance, and space.
The bottom line is to be selective and take control. Don’t fear passing up an app just because your friend suggests it. Do your research. Ask yourself how it’s generating money. Be selective before giving companies access to your data (pictures, emails, texts, location, and camera). Keep your apps under control by keeping the ones you use, knowing others can download them anytime.
The Top 4
The top 4 types of mobile apps used are weather, location, social media, and banking.
- Weather conditions are something everyone looks for on mobile devices. Most apps of this nature cover 7-day and 10-day predictions. They provide essential insights into driving conditions, apparel wear, outdoor activities, and many other things we do regularly.
- Locating objects and places have made it more convenient for us to find things. These types of apps provide details of the GPS coordinates of the objects reside at. The most commonly used locating apps are driving directions, stores, restaurants, and locating devices like phones, people, and cars.
- Social media has become an essential role in events and popularity. The thirst to post information has become engraved in our human behavior. Social apps are broken-down into targeted platforms covering business, community, entertainment, and communications.
- Keeping appraised of our finances is critical for managing money, stocks, and other assets. These types of apps provide oversight and access to the administration. These provide quick and straightforward access for the user from their phone.
