Android Application Development Services
The smart phone era has arrived and many users are taking advantage of the awesome conveniences that smart phones can bring. iPhone, Android phones, Blackberry and other smart phones enable users to perform many tasks on their mobile phones that once required desktop computers or hand-held devices with wired internet connection. Android is one of the leading mobile operating systems used in several popular smart phone brands, such as HTC and Samsung.
Android is a complete mobile operating system that provides a comprehensive set of libraries of mobile applications, a multimedia user interface and several other features. Like iOS, Android makes ample room for third-party development services, and as a result now hosts a myriad of applications from non-resident developers. Android application development covers a vast area of categories like communication, office and business, multimedia, travel and location-based applications, internet and browsing, e-Commerce, games and entertainment. Android development is very similar to any other kind of software development. Furthermore the open source nature of the Android platform enables programmers to develop very attractive and useful applications.
There are many software companies and freelance programmers who offer Android development services. Since Android is an open source platform, there is no big initial investment required for developing applications. Marketing to millions of users worldwide is very easy too. Although freelance programmers can develop good applications, it is better to hire a professional and experienced Android development company. Hiring an expert developer from a company will give you the following benefits:
• Android development companies have substantial experience in mobile application development. They are well-acquainted with the processes of design, development and testing. They have experts who are well-versed in the Android SDK (software development kit), API’s, OpenGL, Media, graphics, etc., along with the security architecture and other technologies necessary to make high-quality applications. After the development stage they test the applications for any kind of problems and troubleshoot if any problem arises.
• Android development companies can meet the deadlines of customers. Sometimes a new idea requires fast action and the application needs to be developed straight away to capture a large share of the market before any competition arrives. Android development companies have two or more experts who can work simultaneously to achieve the desired results in very a short time, while freelance developers cannot keep up with the pace.
• Android development companies are experts at the Android application market. They can make marketing strategies to make the application popular.
• Android development companies have developed many applications in the past that can give new clients an idea about their capabilities. More successful applications means they have more significant experience and that they will not waste precious customers’ time and money.
• Having experience with the Android SDK, these companies are also able to improve the functionality of an existing application and the Android handset.
Hiring a professional and experienced Android development company can bring your application ideas into a reality. They understand the needs of customers and can create custom solutions for their requirements in a very short period of time.
