Key Factors for Android App Development

by Joe Richard Android Application Developer
With a variety of Android applications in the market today, it may seem that creating them is a piece of cake. Through studies and practices, any mobile application is possible. But everyone must know that it is not an easy task. There are requirements needed to bring the idea to life. 

And yes you are free to hire Android app developer to help you turn your dreams into reality. This person possesses mindset and skills needed for fundamental rules for mobile application development. In this article, I will run down a list of key factors that Android application developer must consider throughout the whole process. And here are as follows:

1. Various Platform and Devices
Desktops and laptops personal computers have different screen sizes, features, and forms. The main platforms are Android, iOS, Windows phone, and Blackberry that are continually evolving. So it is necessary to consider this factor in planning. Also, Android mobile developers must take note of the mobile technology option to choose, what abilities the mobile phones should support, and the advancement required for the additional development. 

2. Screen Sizes
Although it is a challenge, optimization for various devices with several screen sizes will contribute to the mobile app’s success. Applications that work on any desktop, laptop, or mobile phones can gain popularity in no time. Developers must think how to design an application with simple navigations. Reducing the number of options for immediate task, feature, and function can make it user-friendly.

3. User Interaction
Using a single touch, you can avoid using keyboard and mouse that can be a hassle. With a touch of a button, it will show various interactions like single tap, double tap, long touch, move, etc. Minimizing the use of keyboards, data entry, and fast typing should be available for mobile devices. Through bigger bars, tabs, or buttons, users can easily activate any link or action with more precision.

4. Phone Function Integration
Smartphones offer limitless design and content that traditional desktops cannot provide. Direct calling and text messaging is the basic phone function integration. GPS is also a great feature that can be incorporated into mobile search services. Devices nowadays can detect the user’s location and creates opportunities for businesses to promote their products and services based on the person’s place proximity.

5. Limited Memory and Battery Resources
One fallback of mobile devices is the lack of computing power and memory capacity. Mobile app developers need to create ways how to optimize their support for mobile devices. For examples, mobile phones constrict their memory to 1 GB, which is too small to allow multiple resolution images and display metrics to scale custom drawing code. 

Another issue for mobile devices is the battery drains quickly. Unlike desktop or web application that does not have a problem with battery life, developers must design algorithms need to address the battery consumption and optimal usage.

6. Fun Factor
Keeping the fun factor alive from every Android application is the one thing that developers should never forget. It must have cool tools, interesting games, and fun applications that will keep the users from coming for more. Although the solution of the problem is there, it needs to be fun and creative at the same time.
