Introduction
The market of mobile phone applications has sky rocketed in the recent past. The age when consumers were using phones just for calling is gone forever. People increasingly use their mobile devices to share their pictures or videos, browse internet, search for products or engage in social media. Moreover mobile software is finding its application in business recently. The market with mobile business applications is expected to burst in upcoming future. Mobile tools can help customers to place their orders easily, to report their claims or access their invoices in real-time. Business people can access various databases of their customers, products, service activities or orders anywhere they go.
However, there are several problems which coders need to deal with when working on business applications for mobile phones. The first problem is that every business is different and mobile clients need to be often adapted to meet the needs of a particular business. The second problem is that user interface controls such as adding menus, buttons, audios, scroll bars, calendars etc. require a lot of technical skills and time for development.

It consists of two parts:
