Due to the continuous advancements of technologies and innovations, and with the digitisation and mobility of almost everything, having an application has become imperative for every business. The introduction of smartphones and the increasing number of mobile users have also made it essential to have an application. But when it comes to mobile app development, the choice of the platform is a crucial factor. You need to choose the right app development platform for your project depending on the target audience, the type of users, and the other business requirements. As per the research and studies, it is seen that most of the business owners choose to hire an Android programmer over the other platforms like iOS and Windows.

... mobile users now. 
 
But with thousands of applications getting released on the Android App Store every single day and with the increasing level of competition on the Android platform, it has become crucial to build a competitive application for Android users today. The market fragmentation of the platform is also more as compared to the other application development platforms, which makes it even more challenging to build a perfect Android application for all the devices supported by this platform. And here’s what makes it essential to choose a skilled programmer for your project. 
 
Keep these tips in mind while choosing an Android app developer. 
 
Look for an experienced Android app developer:
Experience and proficiency in Android app development matters. Without having experience, it won’t be possible to give a competitive edge to the application making the best use of the advanced Android app development tools and trends. An experienced developer can build an ROI-driven project having experience in all the required Android application development skills. Developing a user-driven application for this platform is a tricky task that will need a high level of experience in proficiency in the field. 
 
Check the previous projects built by the programmer:
By going through the previous projects built and delivered by the developer, you can get a clear idea about the quality of the applications. The portfolio of the developer also shows what the previous clients have said about the developer’s works, the capabilities of the developer, the time management strategy the developer maintains, and the working methodologies as well. This makes it essential to have a glance at the portfolio of the programmer before choosing one. 
 
The programmer must have in-depth knowledge of advanced technologies:
The programmer must have in-depth knowledge about the advanced Android app development tools and technologies to ensure competitive application development and to meet the emerging user needs. 
 
Connect with the previous clients if possible:
Connect with the previous clients if possible to know their experience working with the developer. 
 
Discuss the post-development services:
A reliable and proficient developer will surely provide post-development services like app maintenance, upgrades and support. This is important to stay updated with the emerging Android application development trends and technologies and to stay ahead on the Google Play Store. 
 
Apart from these, asking about the communication mode, the time-management strategy, and the cost of development is also necessary to make the right choice for your project.
