The Prospects Of Android App Development & It's Popularity Amongst Developers By: Yancy Marry
Call it the popularity of Android phones or the flexibility offered by the OS, which has made Android the leading platform in the mobile market. The immense possibilities offered by Android makes it a developer's favorite platform.
Open-source Nature
Android is a Linux based open source OS, which means that all the source code is transparent and available to developers. It is not common with other mobile platforms. You can install Linux on a machine and make changes in the file to make the OS work differently. This way, developers enjoy the freedom of modifying the files and look & feel of the Android OS. The open-source nature of OS also opens doors for developers to come-up with innovative applications.
Software Development Kit
Google provides open source software development kit to developers in order to create applications and test them on simulator before loading them on actual device.
Other Development Aspects
1. Android applications are mainly written in C, C++, and Java. Most of the programmers are well versed in Java, therefore it is easier for them to work on Android apps
2. Android offers a comprehensive library for GPS, audio, video, images, 2D/3D graphics, and more. Therefore, it is easier to create fully featured applications. Since, the same code can be repetitively used in development, complex applications can also be created quickly
3. Data storage is also done in an organized and structured way using SQLite
Frequent Updates
Android platform has seen some major updates, with each enhancement offering more flexibility to developers as well as end users. Enhanced or say upgraded OS creates space for innovative applications.
Better Reach
More than 500 million Android activations have been done so far, which means at least this much number of people are using Android devices. So, there are high chances of Android application to reach maximum people in comparison to apps developed on other platforms.
Affordability
There are no licensing charges in Android application development, which works in favor of the OS. You can create multiple apps without incurring the license expense. Moreover, the modification programs are also freely available, which further reduce the development cost.
Other Factors
1. Application porting is hassle free in Android
2. The OS facilitates quick and precise information gathering
3. Android is the right platform when you want to combine or cross-promote several programs
4. Developers can sell their apps on Google Play Store or to third party vendors directly
The developer's community is constantly looking for the most advanced technology to create applications that get instant consumer attention. While other mobile platforms also have loyal customers, the popularity of Android is unmatched. It is the open source nature, flexibility of platform, and keen interest on consumers in Droid devices, which are working in favor of the OS. Enterprises planning for the right mobile strategy should consider the advantages of Android apps before jumping into the development process.
