Mobile devices run on battery and have less powerful <a href="/wiki/CPU" class="mw-redirect" title="CPU">processors</a> than personal computers and also have more features such as <a href="/wiki/Mobile_phone_tracking" title="Mobile phone tracking">location detection</a> and cameras. Developers also have to consider a wide array of screen sizes, hardware specifications and configurations because of intense competition in mobile software and changes within each of the platforms (although these issues can be overcome with mobile device detection). </p><p>Mobile application development requires the use of specialized <a href="/wiki/Integrated_development_environment" title="Integrated development environment">integrated development environments</a>. Mobile apps are first tested within the development environment using <a href="/wiki/Emulator" title="Emulator">emulators</a> and later subjected to field testing.

Mobile UI considers constraints and contexts, screen, input and mobility as outlines for design. The user is often the focus of interaction with their device, and the interface entails components of both hardware and software. User input allows for the users to manipulate a system, and device's output allows the system to indicate the effects of the users' manipulation. Mobile UI design constraints include limited attention and form factors, such as a mobile device's screen size for a user's hand. Mobile UI contexts signal cues from user activity, such as location and scheduling that can be shown from user interactions within a mobile application. Overall, mobile UI design's goal is primarily for an understandable, user-friendly interface. </p><p>Mobile UIs, or front-ends, rely on mobile back-ends to support access to enterprise systems. The mobile back-end facilitates data routing, security, authentication, authorization, working off-line, and service orchestration. This functionality is supported by a mix of <a href="/wiki/Middleware" title="Middleware">middleware</a> components including <a href="/wiki/Mobile_App_Server" class="mw-redirect" title="Mobile App Server">mobile app servers</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mobile_Backend_as_a_service" class="mw-redirect" title="Mobile Backend as a service">Mobile Backend as a service</a> (MBaaS), and <a href="/wiki/Service-oriented_architecture" title="Service-oriented architecture">SOA</a> infrastructure. </p><p>Conversational interfaces display the computer interface and present interactions through text instead of graphic elements.
