A mobile application is a software program designed to run on portable electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets. These applications allow users to perform specific tasks, exchange information, or engage in entertainment activities.
Mobile apps are typically developed for a specific operating system (e.g., Android, iOS) or device type (e.g., smartphones, tablets). Examples of mobile applications include games, social media apps, news apps, financial apps, e-commerce apps, and health and fitness apps. Users usually download and install these apps via an app store, which provides a platform for discovering, downloading, updating, and managing applications.
