OTT App Development Services from Agicent
The first OTT App created by us was 14 years ago, back in 2010. It was a Medical EMR App for a client named GloStreem, Inc in Michigan and since then we never looked back. We’ve seen the OTT App platform grown from a nascent restricted platform to now an all-revolutionary platform of choice by billions. Being an OTT App Development Company, we make sure that our OTT App Developers (from junior to senior level) have enough real project experience (from OTT App Development to launch) before we deploy them on your project.

Agicent went above and beyond to convert our idea of making easy learning app for autistic children into a reality. They picked the project from design stage back in 2014 and since then we made interactive lessons, children games, user data capturing and progress showing for Parents and much more. We are looking to work with them for next long years too and highly recommend them to anyone.

Before starting to code, we need to make an architecture of the project. Project becomes strong via its solid architecture only. Architecture primarily includes the data modelling and flow modelling, however identification of third-party libraries to be integrated, usage of stock features or custom code, identification of side technologies (like for payment processing, for GPS location, for Map technology, for OCR and so on) is worthy to be discussed during the architecture phase.
Description of the desired project outcome will help you to keep on track the work. Documentation of the code will be an incredible source to know about HOW and most importantly WHY things had been done in a particular way. Business logic, especially in bigger projects, is sometimes hard to comprehend for a newly introduced OTT App Developer and an easily available documentation is the best solution to preempt such situation. In fact, creating a project wiki is your best bet that will help any future developers to comprehend and understand and work on the project most efficiently. Successful projects need proper controlling over development and testing, which is easy with documentation.
However, an OTT App Developer should keep the code readable by other developers and shouldn’t sacrifice its sanctity just to write lesser clever lines of codes. That being said, writing large lines of code mostly end up with more lines of bugs too. Less code or optimized code is best thing to maintain, manage, and scale and update over a period of time. We make sure the OTT App Code we write in either swift or objective C or in any cross platform tool like react native or flutter is not unnesessary swollen, is to the point while its readable for any future OTT App developer on the project.
When you create an OTT App, you are basically creating something that has to be compliant to the rules and regulation of the Apple Ecosystem. It is imperative to go through the Apple’s set of guidelines time to time (as they update that time to time) for better hands-on understanding so developers can better educate their clients and managers on feasibility and do’s and don’ts. Apple Guidelines cover multiple intricacies like safety, performance, business, design and legal issues.
The app shouldn't serve as a gateway to scammers who want to steal the data or take control over the user's phone. Security issues are crucial if app involves online payments or needs to store and use personal information.
The major security issue is that mobile apps have access to data stored on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets). Here is our dedicated old (but Gold) blog post on - Mobile App Security Best Practices.
With ongoing pace of new devices, app should be compatible to old devices too. A large percentage of OTT App users are on older OTT App devices too, so while creating the builds one should take care of earlier devices, atleast the ones which are not older than 3 years from the current OTT App development date.
Creating an MVP saves your cost, energy, time and also offers you a great better insight and vision on the full product that you’re going to make. Launching with the core features to test the market very quickly, using ready to use frameworks and libraries for quicker OTT App development is the best Techno-business strategy for mobile app startups. Here is a dedicated blog post on “what is minimum viable product”.
Design Patterns gives reusable solutions to the problems. Cocoa Design Patterns are as follows -
- Creational – Singleton
- Structural - Decorator, Adapter and Facade
- Behavioral - Observer and Memento
Following are some of the common mistakes being done by many OTT App Developers that end up being problematic for future scaling or fixing.
- Need to handle asynchronous code properly.
- UI related code should run on main thread and not on any priority thread. This is important to make sure the App’s user experience and performance remains seamless.
- Concurrency and Multithreading should be implemented properly. When we say properly it means applying it shouldn’t break any other process or functionality or applying it just for the sake of it.
- Mutable objects should be properly handled.
- XIBs should be used instead of storyboards.
- Object and pointer should be properly differentiated
- Logging should be properly managed.
- Leave time and tools for Debugging.
-
OTT App are larger in Size compared to Android AppsWhile OTT App on high end OTT App devices give you amazing UI and UX experience, they come with a challenge of taking more disk space. It is a limitation which creates the demand of buying more and more storage on OTT App Devices.
-
App Store and Release process is still time consumingWhether it is creation of an Adhoc OTT App release or releasing live version on the App store, or re-submitting after doing iterations it is never instant. OTT App store takes its own sweet time while approving an app, and you never know if they reject it just because you marked your OTT App under a category that apple feels is not right – pun intended. It is a limitation though it keeps the OTT App users very safe as they know an Editorial team is working to make sure they get the best App from the developers.
-
Excessive Device Support requiredDue to variety of OTT App devices - Type, Version, and Application Version, it is challenging for a developer to provide full support to all the app uses.
-
OTT App Doesn’t Fully Support NFCNFC enables communication between nearby devices. But OTT App Devices still don’t support or provide full access for NFC communication.
Future of OTT App Development
As per our research and vision, and inputs from Tech Blogs like https://www.techradar.com/news/ios-16, we understand following as the future capabilities that we can explore and implement in OTT App Development.
The new OTT App Devices are bound to have much better camera and video quality and that means there will be great opportunity to create much better photo and video apps. Also, a high-end powerful camera may also serve in creating Apps for different usage than just photo/ video sharing like in healthcare, industry, IoT and also in policing and defense.
How about having a camera that scan inside of your mouth for dentist or ENT experts, or a Camera that is so powerful that you can measure changes in your skin and journal that, or a Camera that does an accurate OCR as you click pictures and attached a narrated story right away, the possibilities of Camera Apps with an high end camera are endless.
The world belongs to content creators these days, and the OTT App Devices currently are widely used for content creation. However, there are multiple challenges like lesser storage space to store high fidelity videos for long time (though you buy it via cloud), not enough screen sizes for video editing, less apparatus for better sound recording (you need an external mic for better recording). Imagine an OTT App that absolutely creator friendly, that let two people talk in a talk show without having an external mic, or Apps that can let you edit your videos as good as you can do on a big studio with a professional editor, and damn making a whole 2 hours movie using nothing but just iPhones – sounds over enthusiastic or crazy, well we all see this being as real animals very soon.
Home automation is here and so as various devices using internet to communicate with each other and perform functions (IoT). The future OTT App will leverage amazingly high-speed processors and 5G and beyond internet speed to facilitate much more robust Home Automation and IoT App for everyday usage. So far, IOT App are largely being used by industry but the near future will have IOT App being used in every household.
The future OTT App in IOT and Home Automation may do switching on the garage lights when your doorbell rings, or streaming different music in different rooms of your home, or controlling your HVAC system as per the outside temperature and your mood, or letting you read a book on the wall in front of your eyes instead of just small OTT App screen. Again, our ideas may know a boundary but the future holds Apps that will ease out our lives in many ways that we can think of as crazy right now.
So far, the widgets have been just a complimentary “ease of access” extension of the OTT App though in the future we see them becoming more powerful, standalone and as useful as letting you switch off your car from the home screen widget or may be by just tapping twice on the head of the OTT App device’s hardware.
OTT App has been known to be supporting less third-party hardware compared with Android OS (which is more open, and open source too!). In the future, we expect iOS offering more third-party hardware support then it could be an external camera, or a medical device, or as electric as your generator set. Also, the OTT App hardware itself can present itself as an interactive interface. As quoted in example above, the taps on hardware can do a lot of things if designed properly. That being said, don’t get surprised when you see someone taking their blood pressure by just tapping 80 times on the OTT App Hardware without even opening an App on the screen.
Augment reality Apps (AR Apps), Virtual Reality Apps (VR Apps) and games are still in their early stage. The future will have more “realistic” reality augmenting apps and also creating a more “real” virtual experience. Facebook has already conceived and launched meta, and the next generation OTT App will let you create your digital Avtar that won’t only play games but also buy things, sell things, do dating, conduct business, get medical checkups and render services for real money. Keep dreaming, as dreams come true!
Advanced Cloud computing has set a global benchmark for app performance, as it enhances the internal memory of mobile devices and let you leverage a high processing power on OTT App . Apple has the cloud computing feature which offers storage, flexible resource, database, networking and intelligence. Ultra-powerful cloud computing feature will let OTT App developers create more powerful Machine Learning Apps (ML Apps) using ML Core framework.
We see not only more advanced and practical personal healthcare Apps, but also medical grade OTT App too that will go much beyond your standard Telemedicine iOS Apps or Drug ordering Apps. We see the future holds OTT App that can practically measure your vitals like BP, Pulse, Oxygen to medical grade accuracy while also provide support to various medical and lab instruments and helping diagnostic, imaging, and recording easier.
