  1. Android Application Development Mistakes That You Should Avoid

  2. Android: The Rise of a Giant • Smartphone devices have seen an exponential growth in terms of volume. • The number of devices, at the end of 2017, stood at a whopping 2.4 billion. Reports state that a third of the global population will be using a smartphone by the end of the current year. • When it comes to mobile operating systems, two names lead the charts over the rest - Android and iOS. • However, in terms of a sheer number of user’s Android leads the market occupying over 75% of the smartphone space.

  3. Mistakes an Android App Developer Should Avoid Rewriting Existing Code This is probably one of the most common mistakes Android app developers make. Most apps today share features like network calls and JSON parsing. A majority of the code required to implement these features already exist. Rewriting these codes can prove to be an unnecessary exercise.

This is to say that an app developed with an iOS device in mind will not be entirely compatible with an Android run device. …

  5. Blocking the Main Thread: One of the key attributes of Android is that all applications run in the same Linux process thread — the main thread. By blocking the main thread, creates a rough user experience and hinders the app’s responsiveness. To avoid this problem developers can use UI thread processes like bitmap loading and database query. …
