Blockchain and Mobile Application Development Industry

Blockchain is a very buzzy term in tech. While many are adopting it for a variety of scenarios, is it right for mobile app development? There are pros and cons to designing applications with it. It’s often touted for its security because a blockchain cannot be corrupted and is always transparent. These traits bring both opportunity and challenges. Let’s look at what makes blockchain different and when it makes sense to use it when developing apps.

Blockchain has big players

Mobile app development is still a growing and expanding area of technology with many newer players using blockchain technology. Blockchain isn’t a gimmick; there is even a county in the U.S. now accepting cryptocurrency as payment for taxes.

Also, leaders in tech are embracing blockchain. Microsoft is launching an enterprise blockchain service. LG is working on a blockchain project called Monachain. Fujitsu has a new technology than extends blockchain functionality. And more recently, Facebook seems to be planning something with blockchain as well. Companies like our partner ConsenSys, with its specific spoke companies, are helping more groundbreaking businesses leverage blockchain for essential niche purposes. Two examples are Meridio, which enables fractional real estate buying and selling, and Ujo, which provides a way to transparently share rights and ownership around music.

Facial Recognition in Mobile Development: Can it replace fingerprint?

Facial Recognition in Mobile Application Development: Can it replace fingerprint?

With the rise of facial recognition technology in software development, specifically mobile app development, our fingerprints may be supplanted as the convenient biometric of choice to save us from typing in passwords. There’s nothing new about the idea of using your face to unlock your phone or other devices, but when Apple made Face ID the star of its iPhone X reveal, facial recognition took a big step towards the mainstream consciousness.

The reception to the iPhone X has been overwhelmingly positive. Despite some quirks with Face ID, we found it to be fast and convenient in our iPhone X review, noticeably improving with time as it builds a more complete model of your face. Apple is so confident in Face ID that it’s likely to replace Touch ID in all iPhones — even iPads — going forward, according to KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo.

7 Reasons Why Your Business Needs a Mobile App

Why you should consider building a mobile app for your own company?

If you think that mobile apps are solely for big name brands like Uber and Amazon, you are wrong. More and more small and midsize businesses are following the mobile trend, understanding that an effective mobile strategy involves more than just a mobile-friendly website.

In fact, these days you’ll notice that many small businesses you interact with in your everyday life have their own dedicated mobile app — be it the corner coffee shop or the beauty spa downtown. These companies are ahead of the game when it comes to taking their marketing to the next level.

How can mobile technology improve the future of healthcare?

Mobile app and wearable tech will transform healthcare delivery through remote patient monitoring, telehealth and analytics

Wearable and mobile technology are still in their infancy in relation to the healthcare sector. It is realistic to take these innovations as more than a novelty and begin to think creatively and with an open mind as to how they can be strategically applied to issues that doctors, and workers on the frontline struggle to handle throughout the NHS

The UK healthcare system today could certainly do with a much-needed shot in the arm. It seems every day brings a new challenge to the National Health Service (NHS). This problem becomes especially acute during the winter months.

Delivering 21st century healthcare with ever-decreasing budgets is a real challenge for healthcare professionals. It’s not all doom and gloom as there is a solution that is helping revolutionise delivery of UK healthcare provision: clinical mobility.
