  1. The Cloud: Make sure your app is a multi-tenant with one database that can scale. Whatever you decide to store on a user device should be replicated to the cloud religiously.
  2. Open Standards: Now is the time to replace all your data definitions with standards based frameworks.
  3. Data Completeness: Whatever your app does, you should always strive to complete your datasets.
  4. Data Validation: Data that is misspelled and inconclusive is useless, so make sure your app knows exactly what the user meant.
  5. Open Architecture: Good software is built with growth in mind, and nothing grows software faster than a good set of APIs that you can hook to additional functionality developed by others.
  6. Personalization: This is the age of personalized medicine. It is probably too early for most health care app developers to take advantage of that, but there are smaller things you can do right away.
  7. Usability: There is nothing more useless than an app that does only one thing. Even if you start with a specific functionality, you should quickly expand to other services.
  8. Mobility: There is absolutely no point in developing solely for the old web any more.
  9. Gamification: If you don’t have stars, badges and happy sounds in your app, you’ll have to add them.
  10. Taste Your Own Dog Food: To make sure you are producing marketable goods, you should simulate how others may consume your output.
