      Apple Almost Banned PWAs. Now What?

      Recent shifts in Apple's stance on Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) have cast a shadow over their future viability. In late January 2024, it was revealed that Apple was quietly removing the ability to install home screen web apps within the EU. This decision was reversed in March following backlash from developers and tech media. While the immediate threat has been alleviated, the incident highlights a larger, looming uncertainty for PWAs.

      How to Improve Your App Rating: The Journey to 5-Star Success

      When mobile presence is a key part of your brand’s digital strategy, delivering an exceptional app experience must be a top priority. From a seamless user interface to innovative features, the goal is to create an app that not only serves its purpose, but surpasses user expectations. One clear sign that you've hit the mark? That coveted 5-star rating in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. It's an acknowledgement that your app stands out from the crowd and a testament to your commitment to excellence. But if you take a stroll through the app stores, it quickly becomes clear that not every app achieves this 5-star status — or even comes close. Why is that? And more importantly, how can your brand bridge the gap?

      4 Top Tech Moms We Admire

      In an industry that’s historically been male-dominated, it’s more important than ever to shine a spotlight on the women — and the moms! — who are making waves.

But there are also countless women — many of them mothers — out there who are not just meeting these odds head-on but excelling, innovating, and leading the way in tech. Moms are undeniably some of the greatest heroes of our lives: They're our biggest cheerleaders, our most reliable shoulders to lean on, our mentors, and our inspiration.

      The Great Debate: Native vs. Non-Native Mobile Apps

      When it comes time to develop a mobile app for your company, one of the most crucial early-stage decisions is choosing the right development approach: Should you build a native app or a non-native app? To make an informed decision, you’ll first need to understand what’s at stake and the options that are available. Native apps are designed exclusively for a specific operating system and offer better performance and a more seamless user experience. In contrast, non-native apps can run on multiple platforms and are more cost-effective and quicker to develop. Which route you choose will depend on numerous factors including business needs, user needs, and your budget.

      How to Unlock the Potential of Your Shopify Store with a Mobile App

      With the Shopify Buy SDK, you can smoothly transition your existing customers from your web store to an in-app experience. By allowing them to maintain a single user account and order history and access previously stored payment methods across both web and app, you can give them a consistent and uninterrupted customer journey. Before developing a mobile app, the brand already had hundreds of thousands of existing customers — so ensuring all those users didn’t have to create a new account to purchase via the app was absolutely critical.

      Bug or Feature? Uncovering a Potential Salesforce API Security Breach

      According to a 2022 report by IBM, a data breach costs an organization more than $4 million on average, and 19% of breaches occurred because of a compromise at a business partner. It’s clear that keeping data safe has never been more crucial to a company’s bottom line, yet even high-profile technology companies sometimes fall short when it comes to their security practices. A long-term project we’re working on here at Heady involves the use of Salesforce OCAPI (Open Commerce API). OCAPI is a collection of highly customizable APIs that support ecommerce-related applications, providing similar functionality as a Salesforce storefront but through API.

      Building Mobile Apps for Multi-Brand Companies: Our Proven Formula for Reduced Costs & Faster Launches

      Launching a mobile app is a major undertaking for any brand, and for companies with multiple brands under one umbrella it can be especially challenging — not to mention expensive. Each brand has its own distinct personality and demographic, and accordingly, you want each brand’s app to have its own unique identity and its own roadmap to allow for digital evolution. Think of a parent company like Gap Inc.: Gap, Banana Republic, Athleta, and Old Navy all serve distinct customer segments, with mobile apps that feel distinct but still unified.

      Recession Proof: Why You Should Invest in Tech During a Downturn

      According to Forbes, there have been 13 recessions since World War II. Three were in the 21st century and many experts warn another is on its way, predicting at least a 50% chance of a recession in the next two years. Some experts argue it’s already here, while still others insist we’re only experiencing a downturn. Whatever you want to call them, these economic slumps happen more frequently than most people realize, and they are generally much less ominous than some would make them sound. And markets tend to bounce back after a downturn – often returning even stronger. So as we experience this current downturn, the question all business owners should be asking themselves is: will we make it to the bounce back? If you are sure the answer is yes, then make no mistake: now is not the time to pause your growth and hold steady. Now is the time to level up.

      The 4 Questions That Helped Us Return To The Office

      To return to in-person work or not to return? That’s the question facing so many CEOs and organizations, including us, since rising vaccination rates and falling case numbers began to shape a vision of the post-pandemic landscape. Here at Heady, we believe that there’s no one right approach (other than listening to our most important stakeholders, our employees). That being said, we’ve put an immense amount of thought and strategy into navigating these new waters with the goal of keeping our organization and our culture intact. So we decided to share the four pivotal questions that guided our decision-making, both for the benefit of our own internal team as well as other organizations currently wrestling with the same decision.While this is the approach Heady took after much consideration and collaboration, there’s no one-size-fits-all prescription here: Your organization’s needs may be different, and we encourage you to find your own North Star when it comes to finding the balance between a return to normalcy and keeping employees safe.

      When it comes to technology, the only constant is change. But some changes cause more noise than others, and over one year ago, that was especially true with the release of iOS 14.5 with App Tracking Transparency measures (also known as ATT). The update certainly resulted in a fair share of grumbles, particularly among digital advertisers. At Heady, we believe in not just acknowledging but embracing changes in tech and staying ahead of the curve. We also advocate for enhanced digital privacy, so we looked at the release as a good thing. Not just for consumers and privacy advocates, but for the industry as a whole.
