Changing Paradigms of Mobile UI Design


With every update of the Android and iOS operating systems, multiple changes in terms of app design or development can be observed, especially the design principles. Moreover, the ever-evolving device hardware and product requirements make it only prudent that web along with app designers not only adapt to this change, but implement it as well.

1. Material Design is the newest design language for the Android platform that makes use of layered interfaces, floating action buttons, and interesting animations in response to a user activity. Although, originally launched for the Android platform, Material now extends to other platforms like iOS and Windows as well.
 
2. Motion design has been around for quite some time, but they were primarily a part of advertisements, music videos or movie intros. It is however, now used for refining the user interface as a way of delighting the users for an action they have taken.


3. Designing for the multiple screen orientations of Android devices can be a somewhat difficult task, but not for an Android app development company. Now, the iPhone too comes with two different screen sizes. These varying display dimensions and screen orientations require designers to move away from pixel-perfect backgrounds to the use of a more responsive and simplified vector designs.

4. Both iOS and Android have refined their font and typography for mobile devices, presenting app designers with a more fluid and scalable typography. These native fonts are fully scalable, depending on the users’ preferences and their screen dimensions.

5. The use of fading navigation features usually revealed when users swipe or tap the screen, enables designers to simplify the user interfaces. This design approach ensures that app development companies get users to lay more focus on the content.
