Benefits of using mobile applications (Mobile Apps) offline

Mobile Application ( Mobile App)


We all are aware and familiar with Mobile Applications in short 'Mobile Apps'. In shorts, it is mobile software. Technically it can be defined as,

"A mobile app is a software application developed specifically for use on small, wireless computing devices, such as smartphones and tablets, rather than desktop or laptop computers". --whatis.techtarget.com/definition/mobile-app

 

Most of the applications are online, required constant connectivity of the internet. In this row, shopping apps, communication aaps, transaction, and news fetching apps can be kept. But here our concern is to talk about the learning and education providing apps, which are supplied by people are mostly found offline and free with advertisements or ads. Mobile as a tool has been taking place in the learning habits gradually because of the portability and competency and mobile advertisement accompanied in apps peacefully. We user’s are not having any issue since we are getting free service.

I would like to share you download the apps and use them offline after updating and meeting all other formalities, like sign-up, account validation, mobile number verification etc. then we can enjoy a smooth like premium one.

Followings the benefits we would get if we use them offline,

  1. No advertisement
  2. Tracking protection
  3. Mobile balance and internet data will be safe
  4. Power saving
  5. Free from frequent social media messages
  6. Focus on study
  7. Enhancing Productivity
  8. Maximum consumption of knowledge stored in Apps
  9. (more points can be added based on the personal experiences)

 

Few are limitations of using Apps Offline

Entire Real-time communications are frozen, such as

  1. Online quiz and forms do not work
  2. Web broadcasting is restricted
  3. Can’t raise any question
  4. Can’t rate the app
  5. Need to connect the internet for downloading the packages and attachments

 

These are my observations and outcome of thought process. Since we (Modern Librarian)deals with various reading and learning devices, mobile is one them, hence I thought to share with all…

If need any explanation on any point above please put in the comment/reply box and also share your related experiences to make this article complete...

Thanks
