If you own a company in Egypt and want to grow and reach more customers, you’re probably thinking about creating a mobile app for your products or services. These apps have become an essential part of our lives, and many businesses see them as a golden opportunity for profit and building strong relationships with customers. But imagine if you create an app that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) in a way that isn’t good, or that annoys the customer instead of helping them. In that case, you could lose many customers, and your company’s reputation would be affected. That’s why, when we think about using AI in mobile apps, we must build an AI-powered mobile app that focuses on the user. This means designing the app and building the AI within it in a way that makes the user happy and confident in us.
In the coming period, AI will be everywhere, doing many easy and useful things. But to properly benefit from it in mobile apps, we must build this AI ethically, meaning we protect people’s privacy and don’t do anything that could harm them. This is all achieved by adopting a user-centric AI-powered mobile app approach. This means that every decision we make in designing the app and its AI must aim for the user’s comfort and benefit.
What Exactly is a User-Centric AI-Powered Mobile App Design?
Simply put, designing a user-centric AI-powered mobile app means that when we design any mobile app with AI, we prioritize the user, their needs, desires, and concerns. We don’t just focus on making the AI work; rather, we focus on making it work in a way that makes the user feel safe, comfortable, and confident.
This includes many things. For example:
- Transparency: This means telling the user how the AI works, what data it collects about them, and how it uses that data, without hidden agendas.
- Control: This means giving the user the ability to control their data and choose whether they want the AI to use specific information or not.
- Fairness: This means ensuring that the AI treats all users equally and doesn’t differentiate between anyone based on things like color, gender, or age.
- Responsibility: This means if the AI makes a mistake, we are ready to take responsibility and fix that mistake quickly.
When we apply a user-centric AI-powered mobile app approach, we’re not just creating a successful app; we’re building a very strong relationship of trust with customers, which is the most important thing for any business that wants to succeed in Egypt.
Why is a User-Centric Approach in Mobile Apps Important for Your Company in Egypt?
You might be thinking, “I want to create a mobile app that reaches many customers; why should I get into this ethical maze?” The answer is that this isn’t a luxury; it’s the foundation of success. Look at these reasons:
- Building Trust and Loyalty: People in Egypt are smarter and more aware now. If they feel that your app respects their privacy and treats them fairly, they’ll trust you more, continue using the app, and become loyal customers to your company. This trust is your real capital, and it comes from building a user-centric AI-powered mobile app.
- Avoiding Legal Problems and Financial Losses: In the near future, new laws may emerge to protect user privacy and impose rules on AI usage. If your app isn’t built on ethical foundations, you could face significant fines or lawsuits. It’s better to be prepared now.
- Improving Your Brand Reputation: Companies that prioritize values and ethics in their work earn people’s respect. When your app is known for using AI responsibly and ethically, your company’s reputation will significantly improve, attracting new customers and ensuring the loyalty of existing ones.
- Distinguishing Yourself from Competitors: The mobile app market in Egypt is full of many apps. To stand out, you must offer real value to users. When you focus on creating a user-centric AI-powered mobile app, you offer a different and reliable experience, which puts you in a higher position than competitors.
- Increasing Usage and Conversion Rates: If the user feels safe and comfortable using your AI-powered app, they’ll spend more time on it and use it more, which increases conversion opportunities (meaning they’ll buy from you or subscribe to a service).
Steps to Create a User-Centric AI-Powered Mobile App While Building the AI:
Applying these principles doesn’t mean reducing the power of AI; on the contrary, it makes it stronger and more effective. Here are some practical steps you can start with:
- Always ask yourself: “What does the user want and feel?”: Before making any decision in designing the AI or adding a new feature, think about how this feature will benefit the user and how they will feel. Will it help and make them comfortable or anxious?
- Be Honest and Clear: If your app collects user data to improve the AI experience, tell them clearly. Don’t hide anything. Transparency builds trust.
- Give the User Control: Leave options for the user. If the AI suggests products based on their previous purchases, give them the ability to stop these suggestions or delete purchase data if they wish. The more control the user feels they have, the more comfortable they will be.
- Test the AI to Ensure Fairness: You must ensure that your AI doesn’t have “bias.” This means it doesn’t favor one group of users over another. If you have an app that offers loans, don’t let the AI reject applications based on unfair information like geographical area or gender. The AI must be neutral and fair, and this is one of the most important aspects of building a user-centric AI-powered mobile app.
- Provide a Way for the User to Communicate with You: If users have a question about how the AI works or has a complaint, there must be an easy way to contact you. You can create a FAQ section or provide quick technical support.
Focus on Solving Real User Problems: AI isn’t just technology to show off. Use it to solve real problems users face in their daily lives. This is what will make your app indispensable.
