Abstract—In our everyday life smartphones and applications
become more and more important. But the use of applications is
not limited to private persons. Especially for the manufacturing
industry supporting applications are able to enhance the
productivity and to generate important advantages. This paper
deals with the successful development of mobile applications to
support manufacturing processes and shows the difference to
regular applications. Additionally it describes a framework for
developing industry applications including action fields to
tackle during the development process.
Index Terms—App development, digital manufacturing,
industry 4.0, Internet of Things.
