iOS 7 Needs Better App Store Search Usability

February 6, 2013

The App Store designed by Apple is the platform for digital distribution of applications which users can download onto their iOS devices either directly or using the iTunes application on their PCs. Although Apple has made lot of developments in the App Store, there are a few things that can be addressed to improve its usability. In this post we take a look at the features that iOS 7 needs to improve upon, in particular its, App Store search usability.

Features That iOS 7 Needs

Developing the design with new fastening style

The App Store can be developed with new designs and styles. A simple list view should be provided in portrait mode, where users can easily view one application on the screen at one time. This design is already available in the Music page and can be used as a model for others as well. Users are likely to feel comfortable viewing the interface in portrait mode, but applications can be categorized as a list that opens horizontally.

App Store search development

The Portrait mode can further filter the results of search with the relevance of keywords. The horizontal list can be provided on the basis of rating.

Search list with App of friends should be displayed

When a user gets an application, chances are that his/her friends may also be interested in that app. Including a list of applications that are currently in use by friends may also help users find the application that works best for them, quickly. This list can be provided in a category displayed horizontally.

List of newest applications

A list of applications that are newly released should also be displayed by category. Users can then just search for the newest applications from this list.

Category of suggested apps should be displayed

A category of suggested applications should also be displayed so users can get the recommended applications for particular processes.

Scrolling of elements

Scrolling of elements can be developed by making the applications individually separate and by combing the scrolling of elements vertically and horizontally.

Purchasing list view should be developed

Sometimes, the purchasing list is not displayed properly and users cannot scroll through the list.

These are just few of the features that are likely to improve the usability of the App Store. What changes would you like to see in iOS 7?
