Top 11 Best Mobile In-App Feedback Tools in 2021: An Overview

If we look back through history, many of the greatest technological innovations have necessitated change – especially among businesses. Take the internet, for example. The World Wide Web went live a little over twenty-five years ago and took the business world by storm. Andy Grove, the chairman of Intel even said, ‘In five years time, all companies will be Internet companies, or they won’t be companies at all’.

Nowadays, almost all businesses have some sort of online presence and this ‘do or die’ mentality is now making its way into the world of mobile devices. Customer expectations are steadily changing in terms of mobile app performance – especially as the usage of mobile devices continues to rise and expand. Therefore, and for the sake of your customers, now is a critical time to start heavily investing in the usability of your app. This article will take a look at some of the best mobile in-app feedback tools that will help you achieve an optimal mobile user experience.
