I have been seeing a whole lots of competition only on the musical talents show, and entertainment stuffs. I kinda wondered if software or apps developer will be left out of the competition this year.I guess, the Mtn network is kinda putting my thoughts into consideration. I am glad to inform you that the MTN network has launched an App Developer Competition welcoming participants from all corners to showcase their app creating skills. The competition which is described as an avenue to appreciate the ICT industry by discovering hidden skills that need much appreciation for the self developed interest in the Information Technology industry.
Applications to be submitted for the competition should fall between any of the following categories mentioned below:
— Games
–Education
–Health And Wellness
–Productivity
–Entertainment and lifesyle
–And a special category for students submission (For undergraduates)
The top four (4) most downloaded apps from the customers will be selected judging by its number of downloads from customers, while the judges will be given the channel to choose at random from the number of submitted apps to automatically enter for the application. This option is called the wild card option. Yea! i know you might have heard about such grammar. Someone may ask, what are the judges looking out for? according to the information i got, the criteria s for the submission of the application will be based on the below mentioned:
–The authenticity or the originality of the app
–Its user experience (The best is to be taken)
