Making a video game is a hard endeavor even in the best of circumstances. Developers have to anticipate an audience’s desires years in advance, determine the best way to monetize their creation, and execute on a vision amid a cascading series of strict deadlines. And with so many new gaming formats becoming part of the gaming landscape, such as mobile, AR/VR, esports, and streaming, developers also have to consider the type of game they want to make.

Nearly two months since the last release, Android Things is now on developer preview 7. The last update upgraded the platform to Android 8.1, with this version adding new Console features, Bluetooth APIs, and responses to developer feedback.
The latest update to the Android Things Console now allows developers to manage builds, user accounts, and view analytics. Additionally, Update Channels allow software builds to be deployed to groups of beta and development devices, without disrupting production ones.

Brought on by the steady rise in mobile users and usage worldwide, mobile user experience (or Mobile UX) has recently become a major focal point for many digital marketers. It essentially encompasses how customers experience a mobile app while they’re active in the app itself. With the goal of offering a smooth and user-friendly UX, mobile UX is something which must be continuously optimised – especially if businesses wish to maintain a loyal and satisfied customer base. This is where the use of in-app feedback comes in handy.

For digital marketers and product owners, understanding the need for mobile optimisation will be critical in the coming year. In a study carried out by Statista, in the third quarter of 2017, nearly 53% of global web traffic originated from mobile devices. This is a huge jump from the previous year and it’s expected to rise even more in 2018. So what will this rise in mobile users mean for businesses? The answer is simple. They will need to provide an optimal mobile experience. And one of the best ways to do this is give them a voice – through in-app feedback.
