The accessibility of a mobile phone is based on the software installed in that. Any mobile phone can not perform beyond the limit of this software. Generally these softwares are designed particularly for the specific model. But luckily the latest mobile phones whose functional systems are quite critical can support the third party softwares. This is the reason for increasing demand for mobile softwares.
It is like the systems which can perform some basic functions but in order to enjoy some extra functionality, other third-party softwares are installed. Generally, the software designed for one model of a mobile phone does not work on the other but the developers who develops these softwares put some small changes in the software so that they can run on the other models too. Some companies may have their mobile phones based on different technology and software, therefore one particular software has to be developed to fulfill various requirements of the user. Suppose one model of mobile phone can run java software on it,. Suppose a particular mobile supports java software and other one is based on Symbian technology, then the manufacturing company will have to develop a software that can run both the software in the respective model. There is a format available in the market which provides the user to access all the functionalities of the handset, this is called BREW format. As this format provides full access to the functionalities of the handset therefore its development process is modified mainly by the software vendors. It is freely available but to run the software on the mobile hardware a digital signature is needed which can be obtained by tools issued only to mobile phone manufacturer. This kit is known as BREW SDK (Software Development Kits). To download this software (even after one gets the digital signature) on regular phone the software has to go through a testing process by the Qualcomm (developers of BREW) with the help of their TRUE BREW testing software.
Nowadays there is a huge variety of softwares available for any given mobile phones. Some of the softwares can be obtained free of cost. Other softwares can be bought. For every type of mobile users, there are softwares readily available. For people who want to stay in touch with internet there are instant messenger and browsers available. With the help of these softwares various games can be enjoyed. Which keeps you stress free and away from boredom.
For business professionals and students there are document viewers and editors which allows you to use documents created in Adobe Acrobat and MS office For the artists and designers there are image viewers and editors. And some softwares are developed for the purpose of fun.
Mobile softwares have made these devices really interesting as well as useful for its users. This facility has also lead to the popularity of the latest handsets.
