Imagine a wireless mobile network that transmits millions of Private Cloud by MBs of data from your phone or device to a myriad of globally connected devices in the blink of an eye! Is that even possible? That is what we anticipate the 5g Mobile network will do. Short for the fifth-generation network, 5G will make this possible in 2020. Its rollout has already started and it’s predicted that by 2025, 1.4 devices will be running in 5G network which is about 15% of the world’s population. The network is also expected to contribute $12.3 trillion of global economic output by 2035, according to IHS Economics.
What does 5g mean for mobile app development?
Mobile app developers are looking at a brighter future with this cutting edge technological network. Mobile app developers should prepare their existing apps and launch new ones with 5G capabilities in mind. 5G network is not a modification of the current 4G network; it’s an entirely new network structure with the potential to bring industrial revolution. The following is what mobile app developers should expect from 5G network when it gets launched.
Faster File Transfers
With so many apps depending on the transfer of files (transfer of money, data and anything transferable); 5G will make things super-fast. Files will be transferred at the fastest speed possible. This will make it easy for users to stream 4k and 360° videos from their smartphones without lags. What will make this possible is the electromagnetic spectrum the network uses instead of radio waves.
Next Level User Experiences
This network will have clarity of user interfaces. If you want to get a taste of this try watching a video or listen to music on the other network generation and compare them with an LTE Network and you’ll surely get what I mean by the clarity of user interface. Mobile app developers will have to elevate their UI to higher levels to complete on this network.
Improved 3D Models
A huge boost will be expected for mobile app developers who specialize in 3D gaming and immersive augmented reality with 5G network. Users will build cutting age 3D models of objects with a top-notch 5G enabled apps. These mobile apps will be used in different industrial fields spanning from engineering to health.
More Features and Greater Capacities
Developers will incorporate more features and capacities to IoT, virtual and augmented reality apps since this magnificent network will have great speed and ultra-low latency, leading extraordinary and powerful user experiences. This will not only improve user retention but also contribute to high app development revenue.
Advanced Navigational Mobile Apps
A whole new world of opportunities for navigational apps will be unveiled due to high-quality, uninterrupted communications. These will positively contribute to the tourism sector in building apps with popular historical sites from all over the world. Mobile app developers can also build navigating apps directions in a foreign land.
Final Words
As you have seen, 5G technology will greatly impact the mobile app development sector. Features and services used in these apps will be super-fast and intuitive. Communication and file transfers will also improve with a big margin. We can only expect greater things from this network and wait for it’s realized.
