Before we start, think of a popular place in your area where you get all your services done, whether it is shopping, traveling, banking, hotel reservations, medicals, or a bunch of other stuff too. Now just imagine all these can be done right through your mobile phones.

Let’s talk about our daily activities from waking you up in the morning with an accurate time ringing like an alarm clock, followed by managing your To-do lists, handling finances, diet charts, daily sources of entertainment, motivational quotes, and all these are done through mobile applications.

I guess you are aware of all this, but for the sake of the importance of the topic, we will be discussing it thoroughly.

Mobile applications, commonly referred to as apps, can be defined as a software developed for use on wireless mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Applications are designed with the limitations and features of mobile devices in mind.

In this article, follow me to explore the whole concept of mobile applications and how it is changing our world.

Importance Of Mobile Applications In Our Daily Lives

8 Ways Mobile Applications Are Changing Our Lives

Thanks to the advancements in technology, our mobile applications can do more than just send messages or make calls. Below are the ways mobile apps are changing our lives:

Communication & Connectivity

Mobile applications have transformed communication and connectivity from traditional old ways and has fast-forwarded them into today’s world.

We have mobile applications like Skype, FaceTime, Google Meet, even WhatsApp which we can now use to communicate in real-time video and audio communication virtually no matter their location.

Mobile applications have indeed offered us more than social media capabilities.

Personal Finance Management

Managing personal finances was less efficient in the past. Bank account officers had to go to their local banks to check balances and make transactions.

Now, mobile applications make it quick and easy to access your finances from anywhere at any time.

Most mobile financial applications feature a user-friendly interface for simple navigation. It has never been this easy to make financial decisions.

Education

Educational mobile applications have made learning so easy and simple for students as they encourage enlightenment.

Mobile applications have risen above the old classroom training and teaching approach making learning fun for students in the most efficient way.

Gone are the days when educators needed to check the papers of students. With the advancement of mobile applications, online tests can be conducted.

Healthcare and Fitness

Before the advancement of mobile applications, telephone calls to doctors and healthcare organizations have been challenging. Mobile applications are changing how the healthcare industry works.

Mobile applications allow patients to send secure messages, book appointments and connect to healthcare providers 24/7 for telemedicine visits.

The inclusion of mobile applications designed for doctors and patients allows organizations to track patient’s conditions remotely.

Real-time communication via video call, for instance, also boosts patient’s loyalty, helps them feel supported, and builds rapport between the patient and the doctor.

Remote Work Revolution

We can all agree that mobile applications are the best to reach a large audience.

We were used to sending letters but now you can now send emails, text or video chat or even video conference with subordinates or superiors through social networking apps like WhatsApp, Skype, etc.

It makes collaboration easier. Even when colleagues are not physically in the same place, they can be together online through the help of mobile applications thereby making team work easier.

Streamlined Productivity And Work efficiency

Mobile applications can streamline work processes, which has a significant impact on employee productivity.

For example, enterprise resource apps can help improve your company’s productivity and performance by allowing you to insert sales data directly into company servers.

Entertainment

According to Nihal Mehta, Eniac Ventures,  we can see that “The mobile device has become our communications hub, our diary, our entertainment portal, our primary source of media consumption, our wallet and our gateway to real-time information tailored to our needs. The revolution is now!”

Online music apps are getting a good recognition and the number of users which is increasing rapidly cannot be overemphasized.

We also have gaming mobile apps and even sports mobile applications that serve entertainment purposes.

Easy Access To Information And Services

15 years ago, I doubt that people suddenly needed to know the name of the actor who played Shaun Murphy then and there.

But today, that scenario is very much a reality, and we genuinely feel the need to Google something. You probably hear the phrase ‘just Google it’ at least once daily.

This is because mobile applications allow you to search for essentially anything, anytime, anywhere and because of that,  we all have this sense of urgency to find information and it has made access to information and services very easy.

Conclusion

Mobile applications have made life painless. The importance of mobile applications in our everyday life and activities is unending and it makes everything easy. It is without doubt that the industry of mobile application development is affecting our lives positively.

So, you could say mobile applications are needed and wanted for lifestyles.
