How many times have you been standing in line at Starbuck’s or waiting for a doctor’s appointment and you look around and everyone is either on his or her smartphone or tablet?

Mobile applications are no longer an option for businesses–they’re a necessity. “Small businesses can really take advantage of the perception that apps are only for large companies,” Michael Schneider from Entrepreneur.com says. “Home Depot has an app, but people don’t expect Joe’s Hardware to have an app. It’s an impressive thing for any business to have, like a website was 20 years ago.

But before you dive into the deep end of the app development pool, familiarize yourself with a number of the more advanced mobile development options.
