Why Choose Android?
Android is an intuitive and open source mobile operating system with a massive user base of millions of satisfied users. And when it comes to developing mobile applications for business, Android is often the first operating system large corporations and small businesses turn to. Here are a few of the primary reasons why:
Massive user base
While Apple’s iOS gets a lot of exposure, Android is the most popular operating system in the smartphone market. It has an estimated 75 to 82 percent market share - meaning it powers more than 1 billion devices.
Open source
Part of the reason Android is so popular is that it has an open source platform that makes it easy and inexpensive to get started. And with more people using it on the developer side of things, the result is a smoother and more efficient platform that benefits all users.
Highly customizable
If you can dream it up, there’s a pretty good chance that Android can accommodate. Customizable UI and other features make it easy to innovate new apps and tweak/redesign existing ones
Simple integration
Because the Android platform is so customizable, it’s easy to integrate and tweak mobile apps according to very specific business needs
Easy approval.
With Android, you don’t have to worry about any of the stringent approval processes that other platforms require in order to take an app to market. This speeds up the development cycle and allows you to go from concept to product in a fraction of the time.

The Dev.co Android Development Process
01. Discover
When we first meet with your team, we’ll ask probing questions to understand who you are and what your big-picture business objectives are. This empowers us to develop an Android application that fully supports your business from the ground up
02.Plan
We plan out every step of the process to ensure there are no blind spots. This phase is one of the more critical components in the entire equation (and something most developers gloss over).
03.Develop
After we discover and plan, we roll up our sleeves and begin the Android development process. The goal is to create a lean app that’s both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
04. Test
Bugs are a natural part of developing an app, but you don’t have to live with them. Count on us to test and iterate until you have an Android app that works with your business to achieve any and all underlying objectives.
