• App Name: Name of your app should be thoughtful and trendy also the kind of short and sweet one. It should resemble the genre of the app it belongs with. Have a check on illustration, should have a cool name, Messenger is succinct, unique, and other trendy stuff.

• App description: When a play store use lands on your app having no information about the one, it is the app description that provides it with the required information. However, you should know how and what you should write in the app description category. You can write something like, “This app is super cool, loaded with all new features and above all, it is free free free!” For app description you can get in touch with Mind Mingles providing A to Z app store marketing services.

• Screenshot and videos: Pictures and videos can provide any age of user better understanding than the written description. Sometimes, the user doesn’t get the app description properly and here the pictorial description or the screenshots can work the better way. This can give users the exact idea of the application.

• Genuine review: Here the question arises, what you will do if the screenshots, videos and written description is not convening the user for app download. Reviews are something any user can true above all. You can check the reviews of the genuine user as only a genuine user can give the most trustworthy description of the app.

• Last update: Sometimes the application starts well, also receive a good number of a number of downloads, but doesn’t maintain the consistency. Some bugs and minor errors are very much common in almost every mobile app. The top developers believe that one should always keep on updating the app and fixing the bug so as to remove the misfits. One can check the date of the last update in the review area. Wherein the last update date should be close to the current date.

• The number of downloads: talking about me I prefer looking at the number of downloads first and then download the application. Just like me, many users prefer checking the number of download section. It is very much clear that none of the dumb application will reach up to a noticeable number of download.   

• App size: This is another important thing user check while downloading the app. “25 MB I don’t have this much of data left in my internet pack.” Or “Ha just 5 MB! Let’s download and give this app a quick check.” This is where the actual difference in the application’s size lies.
