Magentoecommerce develops iPhone Applications, iPhone Games and Customized iPhone Applications.
Magento, being an open source platform, is leveling the playing field for mobile application developers.
With 1.4 million iPhones sold so far, the market for applications development is seeing an explosive growth.
Being an item of personal use, we pay very careful attention is paid to the details of the requirements of the client, as the applications are for personal use. Our development team remains in close contact with the client from the very start of the development process.
Before beginning the actual development, we carry out due diligence exercises on the target audience, the scope of the application and the prototype designs.
Bandwidth is a critical issue. iPhones using WiFi or a speedy 3G networks have no problem, but uploading an online store over older cellular networks can be excruciatingly slow.
While the Apple iPhone accurately renders websites, some problems still persist. Online stores are designed to look good on large monitors. These sites display all their features properly on the iPhone but in much smaller sizes, requiring users to zoom in, zoom out, and scroll in all directions.
To address this, we use special Magento themes or combination of layouts, templates, and presentation files that are optimized for an iPhone's browser. This theme still offers great looking graphics along with full functionality on an iPhone's palm-sized LCD screen.
Using the iPhone Theme
m-commerce is here to stay, as a retailer its time you implement a mobile solution like Magento's iPhone extension to gain a competitive advantage over other ecommerce sites that are slower to adopt a mobile-specific platform.
