What are the best practices for mobile UX?


Fall in love with the pain -- no one actually wants to use your app because it's fun (unless you are a game obviously), so figure out what need you are solving and then relentlessly focus on eliminating that ONE pain.  The only other exception to this is if you have a complex pain or series of pains that naturally fall into a workflow--it might be better to support them all in one app vs. several separate apps.

Take a closer look at apps you respect and use everyday. Integrate award-winning apps into your daily life. Study them and figure out what they are doing that makes them so awesome.  Then apply that learning to your app.
Use pattern sites like Mobile User Interface Patterns, Mobile Patterns, Android Patterns for inspiration and so you are not reinventing the wheel.
