7 of the Weirdest Reasons We’ve Heard for Not Building a mobile App

In an era where people check their phones 100 times a day, it is surprising when businesses don’t want to build mobile applications. Some of these businesses have valid reasons and it would be useless and a waste of money if they did develop a mobile application; however, some reasons were a little bit interesting. 

 

1.People don’t use apps anymore 

Starting off with the most shocking reason of them all. Some people genuinely believe that people don’t use apps anymore. 

In fact, there are around 250 million mobile application downloads around the world every single day. 

From transportation and banking app to ordering food and booking flights apps 

 

2.The website is enough 

Well, this is a tricky one. Some websites are truly enough for a business and developing an app would be no good because it would just be a smart version of the website nothing more, no tangible benefit. 

On the other hand, some businesses do need mobile apps and would grow and achieve more results because of mobile phones. 

 

3.I don’t want to be like everyone else 

Some people don’t want to build an app because they don’t want to be like everyone else. Well, it’s true that businesses shouldn’t blindly copy each other or do something just because someone else did it.  

On the other hand, missing out on this opportunity is not standing out, instead it’s a risk. 

 

4. AI will replace mobile apps in the feature 

Some people genuinely believe that AI will replace mobile apps in the future and are afraid to invest in it. Well, we hate to break it to you, but AI and mobile apps are complementing each other. 

Waiting for AI to have a replacement for mobile apps in the future might be a waste of time and opportunities for your business.  

 

5. Apps are only for big brands. 

This is a common myth in businesses. Big brands rely heavily on mobile apps but that doesn’t mean that smaller businesses and startups can’t benefit from it and grow. 

Mobile apps are a method that connects businesses with their target audience. 

 

6. Mobile app development process is a hassle 

To be honest, mobile application development is not an easy task but working with the right team makes the process more smooth, transparent, and seamless. 

You just need a clear vision, and your development partner will guide you through the rest from design to deployment to updates. 

Conclusion: 

Not every business needs an app immediately, but rejecting the idea for weak reasons can cost you customers, revenue, and relevance.  

The truth is, your audience are already on their phones, and they’re expecting brands to meet them there with fast and personalized mobile experiences. 

If you’ve been hesitant, maybe it’s time to reassess why. Just make sure your reason isn’t, “Because I read that people don’t like apps anymore.”
