Abstract: | In today’s modern world, a new trend in mobile applications development can be seen with the increase in the number of mobile applications being developed for many specific domains, especially in health care. These mobile applications, better known as “apps,” are sophisticated systems specially designed for smart devices to reach a wider audience that wants to stay connected on the Internet or use software on the move. Although this trend of mobile applications development is still in its infancy, a huge increase in the number of apps being developed over a short period of time from the conception of smartphones is evident in the number of diverse applications being made available on a daily basis on Apple’s iPhone, Blackberry, Windows mobile, and Google’s Androiddfrom the first smartphone, called Simon, designed by IBM in 1992 and released in 1993 till today. According to the International Data Corporation on Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker, vendors shipped a total of 287.8 million smartphones worldwide during the first quarter of this year.
