How to Design Apps that People Want to Use (Without Wasting Time or Money)

Join app developer, Paul Solt, and user experience researcher/designer, Heidi Trost, in an eye opening app workshop on Wednesday April 12, where you’ll learn how to create apps that people want to use. You’ll learn why 75% of apps are never opened a second time and how you can leverage user testing before you become of the 99% of apps to lose money.

They’ll help you save your time and money by answering the following questions:

  • How do you create an app people want to use?
  • Why do people want your app?
  • How do you know what features to make?

You’ll learn:

  • How not to waste your life savings by using a design plan
  • How to establish a need for your idea
  • How to test your idea before you build it
  • What skills and people are required to launch your app
