Opis

This research is an exploration into the influence of mobile apps and mobile devices on the design of products. The research relies on secondary data to demonstrate how mobile device design has changed as well as their usage. The primary data was collected by using a survey questionnaire methodology. The research reviewed the design of the mobile phone as the product in question. Findings show that mobile apps have had an influence on the design of products however; technology has driven this change, not apps themselves. The research contributes to the understanding of the relation between product design and usage of complementary products.
