INTRODUCTION Technological revolution specifically in telecommunication has created a large market for mobile phones and everyday hundreds of different applications are developed for smart-phones due to their diverse uses.A smartphone is built on a mobile computing platform,with more advanced computing capability and connectivity than a feature phone[1]. Development of smartphone applications is the process by which software is developed for resource-constrained devices and it is executed over a specific operating system like An-droid,Windows Mobile,iPhone iOS,and Nokia Symbian.Moreover,each platform uses a different programming lan-guage,such as Java[2]for Android or Objective-C[3]for iPhone,and has a slightly different development process.
