Android App Development Trends in 2017
The Transition
Mobile apps can be considered useful in more ways than one. Entertainment, social media, and on-demand services have proven to be very useful for 2016 and it will be doing the same in 2017. But it will be interesting to see if the consistent curve of the commandant in mobile technology will face any hurdles in doing so.
Nougat
Android Nougat is prevailing nowadays and most of the smartphones have already been updated with it. Users are loving it as with all the previous upgrades of the Tech-Giant Android. As soon as Android announced Nougat, there was a drastic increase in the current users who are not having the compatible device and also the retaining users instantly wishing to get the updates. Android users have always been bragging and ranting about Apple smartphones since the frequency of the new versions android users get is far higher than the latter.
Verdict
As per the CEO of 360 Degree Technosoft, Pratik Kanada,
“The mobile trend has just begun. It won’t stop. Particularly, android app development companies will get the benefit of the tremendous amount of users. Although the fact that prevails in the market, iPhone app development will secure its place and prestige by its ever known quality and frictionless user experience than the prior. I think it won’t be too late when the websites will be a history.”
Influence
With all the statistics, surveys, and incredible facts considered, we can say that before foraying into the world of mobile applications, Android is the most suitable platform. Because of Higher Portability, Java Roots, Android Studio, Google Intact Reputation, Test Versions, Frequency of Updates, Integrated Development Environment, and many other elements, android has maintained its position. These factors greatly influence the profitability and also from an objective point of view, Android is a lot more versatile.
Illustration
Pokemon GO is downloaded over 100 million times. It earns over $10 million daily from both iOS and Android apps. It is entirely free, though. This is how the mobile application works. You just need to make it a hit in the market. The android market is trending and will show the sheering curve till apple comes with something that breaks down the impact and replaces it immaculately.
The added advantage
Google unlike Apple, is quite relaxed in allowing customizations to its UI. This is the bit that developers simply love about Android! It allows them to play around with UI and makes the apps more bewitching. From a business perspective, this is a huge plus. The Android is absolutely open-source, so all the developers have access to all the SDKs. What do you understand from this? Yes, they can freely write their codes and develop apps as per their convenience and concerns.
