The software market is actively developing and today mobile applications are designed to solve a number of problems: data collection and processing, analysis of consumer preferences, computing, big data processing, expansion of functionality for static pages, automation and much more.
The shift in favor of using mobile devices to surf the Internet is no longer news. In the near future, most users will be using tablets and smartphones to log into the network. Hence the particular relevance of mobile versions of applications for smartphones. For example, healthcare app development company create apps that are patient-friendly. This makes it possible to reduce visits to hospitals and clinics, and to make paper procedures more comfortable.
According to the app designers themselves, next year the following trends will be relevant:

Neoform concept
This style is known in design as the use of flat and simplified fragments in iconography, which give a high effect. This simple technique makes simple graphics more interesting and attractive. The style of neoform has been used for a long time, but it gained particular popularity with the predominance of mobile versions of sites.
When space is limited, it is difficult to add many effects, which leads to page overload. Bulge and volume, paired with shadow effects, concisely highlight portions of the user interface and enhance the look of the page.
Traditional styles of neoformism can be seen on mobile apps about weather or currency rates. The three-dimensional effect helps to visually increase the area and allows you to visually place readable text with small icons. Neoformism is expected to become an even more relevant solution for the appearance of mobile applications next year.
Visual effects with animation slices
JavaScript technologies and the capabilities of modern frameworks allow you to bypass server-side restrictions and apply complex dynamic scripts in the user’s browser. That is, the framework technology allows you to give dynamics to the application without restrictions on the speed of other modules. Thanks to this, animation is gaining more and more popularity. All search engines, including Google, have learned how to interpret animated graphics and identify site content with many visual effects.
Mobile app design services are considered the most demanded now. For all its advantages, minimalism will not be able to meet the needs of all customers. Consumers are too different to “try on” everyone under the “one line”.
Even in projects with a minimalist style, effects of shadows, scrolling and moderate animation are often used. With the advent of the pandemic, many employees switched to a remote form of cooperation, while applications with the effect of video previews, voice prompts, and AI systems became relevant.
Using swipes
Many smartphone owners use swiping technology without even knowing what it is. This utility adjusts to user characteristics and allows you to type text without taking your fingers off the display. This is very convenient for social networks and messengers, when a visitor needs to quickly type a simple answer or write a short question.
Swipe has taken root in touch devices, and today you can often hear about the expansion of the geography of the technology application. For example, contactless payment by bankcard, when the client does not need to swipe the card through the edge of the terminal, is also based on squipe technology.
Squipe commands are used to unlock mobile devices, speed up typing, and simplify access to portions of the user interface. The automated keyset is used on Instagram and Facebook. By swiping to the right, you can send a like; when you slide back, you skip the profile. With the help of a squipe, you can quickly flip through photos, add a photo to a story or post a message.
The fashionable software package is only gaining momentum and in the near future, it will be possible to find many modifications of squipe technology in various processes of automation, production and consumer services.
