Android is the most popular mobile platform, running on almost 60% of the world’s smartphones and tablets. By June 2012, 400 million Android devices had been activated and one million more Android devices are being activated every day. More than one and a half BILLION apps and games are downloaded each month!
As you can see, the Android market is huge. If you’re thinking of developing the next big Android app. Or maybe you just want to write an app to use on your smartphone or tablet. Where do you start? The internet is awash with information which can be quite confusing. There are also many books out there but which one is right for you?
This ebook will give you a broad understanding of Android. It will answer questions like:
• What is Android?
• What are the parts of an Android application?
• What can an Android application do?
• What do I need to develop Android applications?
• Where can I get the tools to develop Android applications?
• Where can I get help if I get stuck?
• What will it cost me to develop Android applications?
• Where can I sell my Android applications?
This is not a how-to book. It will not teach you how to develop Android applications. It will give you a broad understanding of the Android environment though. You will then be better informed to get out there, and get the right resources so that you can get down and write great Android applications.
Short and sweet, if you’re interested in developing Android applications but know very little about Android, then this book is a great place to start. It’s easy to read, not technical and covers just enough detail to make sense.
