User Story Template for Mobile Apps
Mobile user stories must account for offline behavior, platform-specific interactions, performance budgets on slower devices, and app store review requirements.
This template extends the standard user story with mobile-specific acceptance criteria sections.
Template sections
4 sections covering the complete user story workflow.
Platform Behavior
Specify behavior for each platform: iOS-native vs Android-native patterns, platform-specific gestures, and cross-platform shared behavior.
Offline Behavior
Every mobile story should specify offline behavior: queue action for sync, show cached data, or block action with messaging.
Performance Budget
Specify: screen load time (under 300ms), animation frame rate (60fps), memory usage delta (under 10MB). Test on mid-range devices.
App Store Compliance
Flag stories affecting app store review: in-app purchases, privacy manifest updates, and content age ratings.
