In South Africa, 93% of our population has access to a smart phone. 20% of South Africans check their phones within 5 minutes of waking up, while 20% of us check our phones up to 50 times per day. So, what better way to reach your target audience of today than via their phone?

It is not that simple though, developing mobile applications for your institution could run into hours of development, technical headaches and at high costs. Or would it? What if building an app required no technical skills and could take only an hour to build?

Often the benefits of developing a mobile app, is overshadowed by technical speak and developers who are out of touch with processes and practicalities of campus. But what if building an app requires no technical skills and could take only an hour to build?

Smart phones have become part of our daily lives. Integrated in each and every activity, it has become a tool – from planning our schedules to reading emails, to organising our social lives, to LIVING our social lives. In fact, the students in 2020 will most likely be scrolling through content on their phones while in the company of friends. 

That is why mobile apps can aid institutions in communicating, but more than that, engaging their communities. From prospective students to faculty and staff, or even alumni – an interactive mobile app can reach them. Many institutions are successfully implementing mobile apps for recruitment, registration, student retention and even graduation. It is also the perfect solution to connecting with alumni or faculty. 

So, the benefits are obvious, but what about the effort or headaches. With the right solutions these mobile apps can be easy to build – even in less than an hour! In fact, no technical skills are needed, and apps can be developed with the input of all involved!
