The year 2019 has been more heroic in terms of technology and development. People are looking for new opportunities to grab in 2020 for more growth and to move ahead from competitors. To move ahead from competitors, it is very important to analyze the environment and find out what is new in the market.

After working on projects and talking to experts, here is what I found about the top trend in App Development.

1 - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Both Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are well-known terms for tech lovers. The increasing demand for chatbots and virtual assistants is booming in the technology industry. 

According to expert Alex J. Champandard, AI will rise to $40 billion by starting of 2021.

Cortana, Alexa, and Siri are the best examples and biggest proofs of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Now they are a very important part of mobile apps and websites. 

Nowadays, it is very easy for mobile app developers to integrate chatbots in their apps and websites.

2 - Chatbots
Sujan Patel, founder of Wedprofit says, the chatbot is one of the trending technologies which is playing a very important role in Customer Relations. As technology is continuously improving and getting ready for the future, businesses are trying to improve their customer relations with the help of it. This AI technology is currently present on Facebook messenger, telegram, etc.

According to the report published by Grand View Research, the Chatbot market will reach up to 1.25 billion by the end of 2025. So many mobile app development companies are coming up with the Chatbot technology for their apps and Artificial Intelligence.

3 - Payment Gateways/Mobile Payment Services
The demand for Mobile Payment Apps is increasing day by day. Nowadays, customers prefer to make payment via payment gateways and online banking services. This saves time and provides more security to users. Paytm, BHIM, Google pay are some of the best examples of payment gateways that are currently trending in the market. 

There are so many successful apps available in the market. According to Piyush Jain, founder of [Simpalm](https://www.simpalm.com/virginia-mobile-app-development-company) says, every successful app developer should add at least two to three payment methods on their website/apps such as debit/credit cards, gift cards, etc. This provides more options and convenience to users.

In the upcoming years, most of the population is completely going to use digital methods to transfer funds.

4 – Cloud Computing and Integration
According to the research done by [ICUBE 2018](https://www.exchange4media.com/digital-news/566-million-internet-users-in-india-18-annual-growth-kantar-icube-2018-report-95137.html), 53.7% of people will start using the internet worldwide. As the traffic of internet users is continuously increasing, there is a need for more space. With the help of the cloud, users are getting better storage, more safety of data, good loading capacity and it is also increasing customer retention because people need more data security. 

Cloud Integration will help users to gain and more information for their business. Not only clients but it also make it simpler for customers to collect more data for your business with proper management and more security.

There is a large amount of data stored in different applications, which also needs more space. But with the help of cloud storage technology, you can store all of your data in a particular cloud.

5 – Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality
As technology is improving, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality is becoming more popular day by day. VR and AR have influenced a huge amount of people in recent years and its craze is increasing in the gaming world. VR has improved gaming and provides a different level of experience to gamers. VR completely changes the experience by creating a strong connection between the game and the player. It makes the experience more interactive.

A major number of app development companies have started showing interest in ‘beyond the screen’ machinery. These companies are making a huge investment in such technologies and research to provide more effective and interactive experience to its customers.

There is an estimate given by [Statista](https://www.statista.com/aboutus/our-research-commitment) which shows that the market of VR will reach up to $209 billion by the end of 2022.
