Question 1:
What characteristics differentiates Web app from other
software?
Answer:
Mobile apps are built for a specific platform, such as iOS for the Apple iPhone or Android for a
Samsung device. They are downloaded and installed via an app store and have access to
system resources, such as GPS and the camera function. Mobile apps live and run on the
device itself. Snapchat, Instagram, Google Maps and Facebook Messenger are some examples
of popular mobile apps.
Web apps, on the other hand, are accessed via the internet browser and will adapt to whichever
device you’re viewing them on. They are not native to a particular system, and don’t need to be
downloaded or installed. Due to their responsive nature, they do indeed look and function a lot
like mobile apps — and this is where the confusion arises.

Let’s consider the Yelp native app vs. the Yelp.com web app. If you install the Yelp app on your
mobile and then access Yelp.com via the browser on your phone, you’ll notice that the web app
has been made to look and feel like the native mobile app: it turns your browser bar red, and
when you scroll down, locks the search bar in place.

While the designs are similar and follow the same fonts and colour scheme, these are
essentially two different products.

Web apps need an active internet connection in order to run, whereas mobile apps may work
offline. Mobile apps have the advantage of being faster and more efficient, but they do require
the user to regularly download updates. Web apps will update themselves.

Above all, mobile apps and web apps are designed and built very differently. To further
differentiate between the two, it helps to understand how each is developed.

Question 2:
What future tends you see in web applications yet to
come?
Answer:
Many new web technologies are ruling in the world of web application development trends
nowadays and much more is yet to come. It is because of trends in web application
development change at a faster rate beyond our expectation. That’s why it is important to go
ahead with the new web trends that are going to rise instead of focussing on the trends we have
till now. This is the only way how your business can win the race in the long run
