Digital Native App Testing for Better User Experience

Ans: HeadSpin allows its users to leverage over 130 key app, device, and network performance KPIs like response time, CPU usage, and throughput to capture app performance from the end-users' perspective. 

After a test, HeadSpin’s waterfall UI displays the app's performance across all selected metrics for a granular analysis. With AI-powered analytics, users also receive actionable insights through issue cards. Issue cards highlight bottlenecks and provide relevant next steps for addressing them. All collected data can also be viewed in Grafana dashboards to help pinpoint specific areas of app degradation.

Ans: Testing on real devices helps uncover UI glitches, device-specific bugs, and network-sensitive issues that emulators simply can't replicate, ensuring what’s built in the lab works flawlessly.

Ans: Functional data confirms whether features work. Performance data reveals how well they work in real conditions. For example, your “Add to Cart” button may function, but if it takes 3+ seconds to respond on certain devices or networks, users might drop off. HeadSpin provides both views so you’re not just checking boxes, but ensuring fast, smooth, and frustration-free user journeys that drive retention and revenue.
