Android Application Development Is On The Rise

Online, January 29, 2014 (Newswire.com) - The reason for the popularity of the Android platform is due to the fact that it is an open source system. Being open source allows the operating system to be accessible through various mobile devices. iOS from Apple for instance, is only compatible with iPhones and iPads. In order to expand business through the channel of Android devices, you must obtain the technical resources necessary.

A professional Android application developer will be able to create tailor made applications to meet your requirements and budget.

Developing an Android application has the following advantages:

Greater Reach: Android has a massive app store which is now serving more downloadable content than Apple's App Store. Google also allows you to place your application without a competitive licensing cost. If placed in the right category your application would be able to reach the target audience in no time.

Frequent Updates: Another reason for the popularity of this platform is due to the constant updates rolled out by Google. Each update focuses on bugs and flaws to make it better than the previous versions. Even though it sometimes gets difficult to adapt to these the changes, Google offers complete support for all the updates.

Development: Android provides an easy to use application development interface and it can be used not only for development purposes but also to test, sell, distribute and market apps as per client requirements.

All of these benefits are making Android application development a favorite amongst developers and clients. Applications can be built using the dedicated SDK (Software Development Kit) and can be tested using Android tools. Once completed the app can then be distributed using Google Play. The Android platform provides everything needed for effective mobile application development.

This powerful platform also provides opportunity for endless personalization. When searching for an Android development company make sure that they offer you a wide range of services:

1. Creation of Android Apps or games

2. Development for Android optimized websites

3. Porting from iPhone app to Android app

4. Porting BlackBerry app to Android app

5. Building of cross platform mobile applications

Reputed Android application developers should be able to build custom and professional applications for your company. Android is a multitasking and multithreaded environment and developers have complete control over aspects such as the application's appearance, UI and functional capabilities.
