android app design template source code free

In 2014, Catherine Clifford from Entrepreneur Magazine predicted that the mobile app market would raise to be a $120 billion dollar industry by 2020 — just last month, Nick Kolakowski from Dice published a story that the mobile app market might be hitting the big $50 billion mark this year, only $27 billion shy. Will the predictions come true?

Nathan Eddy from eWeek has similar feelings to this, reporting a predicted $100 billion market by 2020. There's no denying that mobile apps continue to grow and rise in popularity, in both mature and growing economies. Also, getting into mobile app market has never been this appealing, and mobile app developer jobs are some of the most sought after.

UI and UX

When designing mobile apps, a lot of the thought process goes into the two big aspects, UI and UX. The bread and butter for any mobile app today. Learning the best UX and UI practices is an inevitable part of any mobile apps success, and should be a starting place for any aspiring and established designer. Ideas on paper can seem wonderful, but it comes down to learning about the actual user who is going to use the app to even begin scrambling ideas and design together.

The first step is always going to be about understanding the user, and how he interacts with the design, then we can move on to usability of the app. Using wireframe kits becomes the norm when building prototypes, way before even an alpha release is on the horizon.

UI Kits

In a time where freebies are used as a way of promoting oneself's work and ideas, there's no shortage of free wireframe and mobile UI kits out there. They are used to begin building the User Interface of your application. It's up to you to decide whether you wish to do the development work yourself. Also, hire someone else to make all the background magic a reality. Although we're going to discuss a significant portion of the most popular and the best mobile UI kits out there. We want to remind our readers that there are many more choices out there. However, it all comes down to knowing what you need and what your application requires of you.

With the number of design elements and objects that you are going to get from these mobile UI kits, you will have many months ahead of you that will be spent in brainstorming and testing how all these elements come together.

Remember that you don't have to stick to a single UI kit either — you can download ALL of them if you wish, and combine individual elements that best reflect your vision. Because these kits come in the form of .PSDs and .AI files, you will find it easy to make any adjustments and changes.

UNLIMITED DOWNLOADS: 500,000+ UI Kits & Design Assets

All the UI Kits you need and many other design elements, are available for a monthly subscription by subscribing to Envato Elements. The subscription costs $29 per month and gives you unlimited access to a massive and growing library of 500,000+ items that can be downloaded as often as you need (stock photos too)!

Fair Mobile UI Kit

Komol Kuchkarov has raised the bar for mobile ui kit developers. Here's Fair UI Kit, an all-in-one solution for designers/developers who want to create functioning app prototypes with existing, modern, and versatile design elements.

In this package you will find more than one hundred and forty individual app screens ready to be edited and published on your apps: twenty-two signup and login screens that you can use for creating signup and login pages, these come in all kinds of varieties, featuring many different color and color + image schemes, there's something for everyone to be found here. A collection of thirteen walkthrough screens for making the onboarding process more friendly, and perhaps slightly more personal.

Twenty-five blogging and content reader screens to help you rapidly design a readable and friendly mobile blog for your app / website — featuring individual styles for writers, and complex styles for magazines. A huge list of more than twenty unique eCommerce related screens for showcasing products, for selling products, for doing payments, and for plain store exposure.

UI Kits

Media file formats aren't forgotten, the Fair Mobile UI Kit has twenty beautiful media related screens included for enabling your users to listen to music or watch videos, and there are more than fifteen social media screens to help others connect with all of the other elements through social interactivity.

Aside from all those wonderful elements, the package also includes more than one hundred unique UI elements that can be used, styled and combined individually with your existing parts of the app. We are sure that our readers already know this, but just to remind inexperienced developers and designers.

These UI kits still require real code to be written behind them, these kits serve as design elements that can be put together into a real application prototype that will still require programming functions to make them work in the real world. The kit is partially offered as a freebie, with the option to purchase the full package if you find it desirable for your app.

IM – Chat Dashboard PSD

Instant Messaging apps are growing in popularity. Popular choices like Slack, WhatsApp, Skype, and others are all built around application functionality, and more often than not it comes down to the design to explain functionality to the users. It's much like what Steve Jobs once said — the design isn't how it looks, it is how it works!

Matt Thompson has spent a fair amount of time analyzing IM apps, because his free Chat Dashboard PSD is an amazing preview of what modern Instant Messengers could really look like, if everyone spared the time to invest in better design choices. You can easily transform this design into your mobile app prototype and then build on top of it, although it just a dashboard, Matt would be more than happy to help you out in porting this into a full-on chatting application.

iOS Livejournal Redesign Concept

Livejournal is one of the oldest running social networking platforms popular in both America and Russia. Additionally, it helps anyone to create their own online diary, blog, or journal where they can share their thoughts, and receive feedback as you would in any other traditional blogging platform.

What does it take to build a platform of this scale that serves millions of users every day, with a standing record of 16 years.. design wasn't Livejournal's strongest point until recently, when modern design really started stepping on many of the popular internet platform toes, and make them do changes that would follow new design standards.

The iOS Livejournal Redesign Concept is a mobile UI kit that tries to depict (and does it successfully) the Livejournal design, and give all designers access to its many interesting approaches in app design, and also to give ideas on how to incorporate those design aspects in your own apps that might be related to journalism or blogging. The author of the Kit, Alexander Livanov, shares too good of a freebie for anyone to pass.

iPhone 6 UI

Android is definitely lacking love as far as free kits go, but perhaps that is only because Android allows for a less rigorous design process. The iPhone 6 UI Kit from Adrian Chiran is a nice execution of elements that complement the iPhone 6 UI natively. The screens are built around a prototype of an Instagram-like application where users can create social profiles, then share visual content and receive responses for it.

We discussed a similar design kit a little earlier in the post, so here's another one in case you feel that you would like to work with a different color scheme and element combination. We think both are great contenders to be built into production apps for social media purposes.

Android Material Design

Instagram UI Material Design

Instagram is Facebook owned, so it comes as no surprise that Instagram also depends heavily on its design functions, with so many millions of users, such applications need to think ten times over when adding a new feature, because it could literally cause chaos over the platform.

Zach Buechler is a material design pioneer. He's constantly working on projects involving material design. One of his latest work is an Instagram User Interface concept using material design as the base of the design.

We think that the end result is pleasing to the eye, and we could definitely see such a version having success if rolled out in production at Instagram, unlikely to happen, but one can hope. Finally, use this concept UI kit to create your own Instagram-like apps.
