The 5 Best App Design Trends of 2019 – Plus, the Top 28 App Design Agencies, According to DesignRush

Consumers will download over 258 billion mobile apps in 2022 – and DesignRush discovered the top app design trends that attract users, encourage downloads and improve engagement rates.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) April 04, 2019

In 2022, consumers will download over 258 billion mobile applications.

But despite that large number of app downloads, the competition to actually get users to download an app and use it regularly is still stiff. Digital brands need to find ways to stand out in the market.

DesignRush.com, a B2B marketplace connecting brands with agencies, determined the best mobile app design trends of 2019. These aesthetics, styles and features captivate consumers, encourage better download rates, and inspire users to use the mobile apps regularly.

The top 5 app design trends of 2019 include:

1. Bold Colors

Minimalism may have reigned supreme in years' past, but bright, bold colors are taking over in 2019.

By incorporating bolder hues in their app design, brands have the opportunity to stand out with an iconic, recognizable brand identity.

In addition, brands can strategically employ color psychology, meaning they could influence a consumer's associations, emotions, mindset or desires through specific colors, thus increasing revenue.

2. Prioritizing Swiping

As smartphone devices use fewer and fewer traditional buttons, brands will likely rely on swiping as the primary action users will take to interact with the app.

A swiping gesture in a mobile app is helpful for notifications, a traditional customer journey, gamification, and niche-specific apps such as dating apps.

3. Linear User Flow

Linear user flows create an exceptional user experience by building a very specific start, middle and end to a mobile app interaction.

By streamlining the way an app works to one particular journey instead of free-for-all navigation, users can feel more comfortable completing a transaction or fully converting.

Linear user flows work well for eCommerce apps and certain service-based apps, such as rideshares or food delivery platforms.

4. Designing For Larger Screens

Smartphones are only getting larger, and with these bigger devices comes more design and development flexibility.

Brands will increasingly develop full-screen experiences that improve overall user experience and brand visibility. This will allow videos, pictures and animations to become even more clear.

In addition, creating an app for a larger full-size screen could improve brand awareness by allowing the mobile interface to mimic its corresponding desktop version with more accuracy.

5. Creative Animation

DesignRush predicts that brands will double down on their use of innovative animation.

Video-based multimedia communicates information to consumers more effectively – and that can be replicated in a brand-building manner through motion graphics and custom animations.

Plus, animations during loading times and transitional slides can ease interstitial anxiety, which improves user experience and increases the likelihood that a consumer will convert.

"As more and more brands realize the potential of mobile devices, they will need to differentiate themselves from the beginning to secure long-term success," says DesignRush Founder and Executive Director Gabriel Shaoolian. "By incorporating the latest app design trends, businesses can build a strong consumer base and improve their brand awareness."

DesignRush's Agency Listing section features the top local and global mobile app design companies. Some of the top app design agencies from around the world include:
