Online video streaming platforms have completely changed the way people view entertainment media. From traditional media to digital, and then to mobile, the transition has been dynamic and universally accepted by millions of people across the globe.
Before proceeding with how to take advantage of the opportunities that the online video streaming segment offer, let’s take a look at how video streaming apps are performing.
The video on demand market, with a worldwide value of almost $34 billion in 2015, is expected to reach the value of $73 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 9.3%.
Now, if you are thinking of creating an online video streaming app of your own, you must first understand the key features that such apps should have:
- Diverse Content Portfolio: Video streaming platforms or apps must be able to appeal to various users of different tastes and preferences; so their video library must consist of different types of genres and categories, such as action, drama, talk shows, news, and so on.
- Multi-language Support: The localization of content on the basis of a country or regional languages can help online streaming video platforms and apps to expand beyond their market of origin.
- User Profile: App users should be able to manage different app tasks or view information, such as payments, preferred content selection, content suggestions, subscription plan details, and so on, through their user profiles
- Interoperability: The app should be able to function seamlessly across different software platforms and devices.
- Social Media Integration: Users should be able to share information about the content they are viewing through various social media channels. Also, social media login makes it easier for users to sign up for the app.
The next step would be to develop a video streaming app from scratch, however, the costs involved and the time taken to complete the app development are quite high.
