Requirements for mobile apps and their development process considerably differs from software developed for desktop computer or web applications. Beside many other reasons, lack of efforts for requirement gathering and inappropriate app development processes creates significant challenges for app developers and sometimes results in app failure. Extracting user requirement for an educational app was the main objective of this research. In the research we understand requirement of users and the environment in which they will use this app in the future. We collected data from teachers in three different languages using an online questionnaire and printed questionnaire. Analysis of the results reveals that most of the teachers have the same preferences for app functional features, user interface and usability requirements. From analyses and literature review, we identified challenges that an app developer can face, studied the implications of requirement gathering on software development and users' expectation of app quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
