What is Mobile App Design?

In very broad terms, mobile app design encompasses the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX). Mobile app designers are responsible for creating visually appealing apps, and developers focus on the technical aspects. Mobile app designers focus on the colour scheme, fonts, buttons and widgets the user will use. 

Developers hone their skills based on the operating system they’re working on. For this, there are only two players in town: Google’s Android OS and Apple’s iOS. While other smartphones and mobile devices with apps exist, they make up a small fraction of the total market. Developers may learn to work with one operating system and move on to the other as they progress in their careers. Being able to work with both operating systems would make you more competitive in the mobile app developer job market.

What Does A Mobile App Developer Do?

A mobile app developer designs, create and updates mobile applications, whether on Android or iOS. He or she works with a user experience (UX) designer to make sure their design is aligned with the needs of the user. Together, they create mockups for the app. The developer must also coordinate with business leaders regarding launch strategies.

Depending on the company, developers may work on their own or with a team of other developers. Developers can be employed by large companies — such as Apple — or by small businesses, so their work environments will also vary greatly by company. Generally speaking though, most mobile app developers work in an office setting. Because this type of job is so versatile, a developer can even freelance and work for single websites or anyone in need of an app.

Other roles include:

  • Create mock-ups and visual designs.   
  • Work with cross-functional team – development and marketing to create usable, engaging visuals for mobile apps.   
  • Involvement in the development process from conception, design to development, testing and release.   
  • Creating mobile and hybrid apps across multiple platforms such as iOS and Android.  
  • Tracking ongoing research and new updates in mobile app design patterns.   
  • Troubleshoot any design-related issues and provide quick resolutions.   

What is the average salary of Mobile App Developers?

According to PayScale, the average salary of a mobile app developer in Canada is C$65,015. An entry-level Mobile Applications Developer with less than 1-year experience can expect to earn an average total compensation (includes tips, bonus, and overtime pay) of C$50,765.
