iPhone platform enjoys the greatest number of apps presenting the ultimate satisfaction for the front-end users. There are more than 200,000 apps submitted to the App Store, each of them promising enormous advantages and prospects to a customer. Those apps encompass a number of spheres that a customer might be interested in everything from quite general ones which are aimed at general users’ needs such as social networking, gaming, tourism or e-reading to some topical apps designed for specific groups of people – motor riders, merchandisers or stockbrokers. The latter are few but usually they are designed to meet special demands of clients and thus present a splendid tool to fulfill some peculiar set of tasks.
Moreover, almost every iPhone (the same stands true for the iPad) app enjoys an utmost quality and a splendid design. Apple has set quite strict and thorough standards for an app to be approved to the App Store. Though some developers tend to complain about it, it seems to be a splendid policy protecting front-end users from poor quality and low performance apps that are to be paid for.
Many could grudge that a user has to pay for the apps downloaded from the store while some other platforms, Android for example, distribute apps for free. But usually we have to remember that the biggest part of the app charge is given to the developer thus stimulating its creative imagination and development skills. And if we compare the average quality of Android apps with those made for the iPhone, the latter (the majority of which are paid ones) are definite leaders. So, if for a potential smartphone user a number of apps to use and their quality is of vital importance, he or she should definitely decide on the iPhone and remember that only well-paid work brings satisfaction and splendid results. The mentioned rule can be quite easily applied to the smartphone app market.
