Is Mobile Development the same as Software Development?

The question is about mobile

Answer:

No, mobile and software development doesn’t mean exactly the same. Mobile development is the subarea of software development oriented to the development of applications for mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets. Both turn to writing code and creating software.

 

Yet, mobile development requires some more special knowledge about mobile platforms, including iOS and Android, mobile-specific features, including touch interfaces and sensors, and deploying to app stores.

 

The latter, however, is the broader field that has to do with developing software intended for desktops, servers, web, and mobile devices.
