If the user is ready to do anything on mobile.

You have to choose wisely what you want them to do.

Prioritize and simplify.

What do your customers expect to get on mobile?

• Check account balances

• Operating hours for brick ’n’ mortar

• Transfer money

• Check flight status

• Check-in for flight

• Search hotels, car rentals

• Get directions and check operating hours

• Contact the store

• Make a purchase
