Therefore while deciding to adopt mobility for a business; a business owner should mainly focus on apps that are equitable in achieving business goals. Every business faces different kinds of challenges while implementing mobility and through this write up, I will discuss about main symptoms that would reveal that mobile strategy adopted by you not running on the proper track.

Wrong Apps – The first sign of an ineffective and fruitless mobile strategy is the apps that are mismatched to your business requirements and theme. As a member of staff of a reputed enterprise apps development company, I have experienced that business owners anticipate common business apps rather than apps that revolve around their business's core features. For a business owner, it is very important to define the problems; he wants his business app to sort before the beginning of the app development process. Further, he should also identify the goals he wants his app to achieve and set a system to monitor the app's effectiveness after its deployment.

Overstuffed apps – A mobile application should deliver focussed functionalities to meet specific user needs. My experience says that if more than 5 percent business functions are transferred into the app, it will start looking bloated. Therefore, business-owners should select the business functions that he wants to integrate with the mobile apps very scrupulously. This will allow him to manage his app easily and give customers and employees a unique, neat and a smooth mobile experience.

Not user focussed – According to my experience, every mobile strategy should focus on users. If your mobile app development strategy does not focus on users' or fails to make them experience something unique, there is no possibility that your app will survive the competition on the app stores. By keeping what end-users want at bay, you are keeping your mobile apps development strategy on the verge of depletion.

B2C Vs B2E apps – B2E apps can generate a substantial amount of gains, as they are capable of improving efficiency, increasing productivity and providing many other opportunities. Therefore, by keeping your mobile strategy's focus on developing B2C apps, you are leaving all the professional gains and profits that you would have received by implementing B2E apps.

App development process – A non-existent or a poorly implemented app development process can be the biggest player in ending any mobile apps strategy.  My suggestion is that app development should first and foremost, prioritize on achieving the goals defined while its deployment. If the app development process is not defined, the actual goal of getting an app will be destabilized by inexperienced app developers, tough deadlines or ad schedules that are designed to promote a new app.

These were five specific points that signify that your mobile apps strategy is not going to work. However, the most common sign with every mobile apps strategy that it falls short of predefined goals and outcomes. By monitoring the mobile app development process and current trend of your business sector, you can alter the mobile strategy to meet the expectation of your customers and employees who are after-all the end users.
