Analyze Mobile Requirements
What OS: iOS / Android / WindowsDevice type, Screen sizeDevice Features / CapabilitiesOffline / ConnectedProcessing powerBYOD?Types of Users – Occasional, Internal/externalType of Applications – Browser Based / Hybrid
No mouse, Function keys Using gestures Harder to type Smaller screen / Less screens Difficult to touch small elements Slower network – Disconnects Security
Consider Mobile Challenges
Are you ready for mobile?
