Hi everyone!
That's pointless to deny that a modern world lives in a hurry.
Everything is done on the go from reading the news to booking a hotel room for upcoming
holidays.
Since we cannot change our reality, there should be a good and reliable way to make
our everyday routine easier.
Here help our mobile devices!
We are going to discuss how to develop a deserving hotel booking application from scratch not
to get lost among all undeniably great hotel booking services on the market.
Let's get it started!
Well, present-day travellers strive to be independent.
It's a right approach actually, because you yourself can organize the most incredible
vacation ever by choosing a hotel, buying tickets, planning travel routes, etc., on
your own; on the other hand, you are the only person to blame if something goes wrong (but
nobody's going to do so, right?).
As you are here, we can assume that you might be a hotel owner catching up with the latest
technology tendencies, or a generous entrepreneur who wants to help other people to make their
business stronger, or just a crazy enthusiast who dreams about changing the whole world
of travelling; after all, you can be just a curious reader.
Regardless of your intention (undoubtedly great), you need to know several things about
the building of hotel reservation apps.
So let's find what they are!
Travel applications can be conditionally broken down into two groups:
last-minute booking applications beforehand booking applications
Another interesting moment is an area your application will cover.
The perfect way is to make an application collecting accommodation offerings around
the globe.
On the other hand, it's OK if you launch a local hotel booking app first.
For instance, the HotelQuickly caters Asian countries travellers only, providing tourists
with the best last-minute hotel deals around.
Being focused on one area at the start can give you a competitive edge since you can
perfect your app and make it the most required in this area.
Talk about intention, you need to define whether you're going to develop a classic hotel
booking application or something unusual.
Airbnb has recently turned the idea of travelling upside down by allowing tourists to immerse
in a foreign culture by hiring locals apartments.
Backtracker is a product where users can plot their journeys, upload photos, and share their
impressions.
Another popular service mostly focused on travellers reviews is the TripAdvisor app,
where you can find the most attractive place to go on the basis of other travellers reviews.
So you should decide what your should bring to people.
Let's stick to the idea of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) while making a hotel rooms reservation
app.
Why is it beneficial for you?
You always need to consider that there are a lot of rivals in any industry.
Nobody knows if an app will become popular.
So, your application should have a set of basic features to:
save the time and money (in case it won't catch on with users)
focus on them only and polish the app operation to perfection (to get a positive user experience)
MVP features are the following: #1: Hotel search and reservation
#2: Users personal account #3: Notifications
#4: Settings #5: Payment gateway
If you want to know more about MVP models, you should watch the following video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7RGVsIWs7g
If you want your hotel booking application to mutate into a travel application, then
you need to know possible ways to help it.
You should add following features: #1: Flights search and reservation
#2: Car rent #3: Where to go
Making the MVP, as we already pointed out, can prevent you from losing your precious
time and money.
Thus, you can launch an app having all the basic features to satisfy customers needs.
Collecting users feedback, you will have an idea how well your app does and how to improve
it in the future.
Its vital to take into account all possible scenarios; so in case the application fails,
you won't lose your shirt (completely) and can start another project with the money saved.
There is one essential thing every person engaged in the mobile development should be
aware of permanent market analysis that makes you a strong player.
Download new applications and watch them for innovations as often as possible to know how
to improve your own product.
People now see the rise of travel applications which makes it difficult for a newcomer to
stand out in the field.
You shouldn't give up because you always have a chance to surprise the world by improving
existing solutions and making up with something new.
