Unit 6 Reading
Response
I might be a little biased when it comes to
having an android phone, but I believe that there is a slow decline in iPhones
as of 2013. I believe android has stepped up their game in developing apps that
span a larger audience and have better ratings. However, this is but only my
opinion.
Android changes with the
people, it is fluid in the way that the iPhone is not. It takes into
consideration their target audience who want to have choices and be open where
Apple is steadfast on only their way is the right way.
A big part of making a great
app is having something that simplifies your life. How does it do that, how
does it “amaze people” how will it make my life easier?
Make the person feel like
they are getting somewhere, having visual feed back for touch and sight go hand
in hand. When we touch a screen something must acknowledge we have touched it. But
with touch fat sausage fingers need to be considered. How much space we need
for design so that people can actually see the choices and to be able to select
their choices comes to the for front. Design design and design some more.
I found that the article for
android development to be most helpful.
Reddit is my crack and they
have everything you want to look up.
Youtube will teach us
everything we need to know
"Flat design is a graphic style that aims to avoid any graphic element providing no significant value to the structure of a template. This type of visual design purely avoid any form of abstract “decorative” elements. Gradients, reliefs, volumes, realistic forms are erased to make room for simple solids.
This is a minimalist visual approach where the design is smooth."
One link I would like to share is on flat design. I recently changed my phone's lay out to a flat design. the android app store has an app pack for this. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kov.theme.lumos&hl=en
It lays it the buttons out with a very minimalist visual approach and is smooth to look at.
