There are several types of landing page. You might be aiming to generate leads, tease a new product or service, offer a freebie, or ask your users a question.
If you’ve worked through the process of developing a mobile app, having a clear, professional landing page is a critical piece of your marketing mix. It’s the first interaction that potential users will have with your app, and it’s your chance to encourage them to download (or buy) it. It’s not as easy as it sounds.
A mobile app landing page has to showcase just the right amount of information, and have a clear call-to-action (CTA) in an effective place. Not all landing pages get all these elements right.
If you’re designing a landing page for your own mobile app (or just wondering how the professional designers do it), have a look at these examples of inspiring and impressive landing page designs to get the ball rolling!

Apple was the first to introduce using large fonts and headlines on landing pages to grab the attention of the visitors. The landing page for the popular messaging app, Line, also uses the same technique on its page to showcase the app’s features.
Rolo Calendar
The Rolo app describes itself as “a calendar for people who don’t use calendars.” And you can see why by visiting its app landing page. The design of this page is odd and interesting at the same time. And it will make you want to click on that download button to learn more about the app.

The landing page for the popular to-do list app, ToDoist is simple and elegant. It heavily uses mockups with just the right amount of contextual information to lure in new users.
With the right amount of inspiration and imagination, you can think outside the box when designing your next landing page.
The best examples above include just enough information to tease what the app can do for you, encouraging people to take the next step of launching an app store to learn more.
Pulling through the design and personality of your app itself is also key. Your landing page is a key introduction to what people should expect from your app, so consistency is key!
