    Blur’s Favorite 5: App Development Projects

    It’s about time we shared our experiences with app development projects – one of the most popular categories at blur.

    With over 500 app development projects in the pipeline year-to-date and almost 2,500 service providers to help us complete these projects, we'd like to think we have some good stories to tell.

    Because…who doesn't want an app nowadays? The incredible successes of apps like Whatsapp and Instagram have made people hungry for their own app success story. Experienced or inexperienced, everyone seems to be keen on entering the exciting, yet mysterious territory of app development. Creating the next #1in the app store is therefore on top of the to-do list of many entrepreneurs.

    People look at their phones on average 150 times every day.

    If you're just looking for an app as an extension of your business plans, an app can contribute to a business marketing strategy, create deeper engagement and attract new customers as well as drive more loyalty. Perhaps your business is looking to improve its customer service…or add a new revenue stream? An app can offer endless solutions.

    Here are five of our favourite app development projects this year…

    1. Fantasy F1 app enabling users to select drivers and earn points based on real race results (Lewis Hamilton allegedly swears by it)

    2. Swimming club app allowing all parties to manage a booking system, calendar, in-app purchasing and more (to ensure the fast lane's free of amateur splashers)

    3. A 'Don't Nod Off' app to alert you by phone when you fall asleep using in-device proximity sensors and last activity data (run away hit for long business meetings)

    4. A 'When are you going to reimburse me for all that money I've spent on your behalf' app to claim expenses quickly, efficiently and accurately

    5. A 'I've done the washing up ten times now and you owe me big time' app to enable people to do favours/help each other using hours spent as the currency
