Android development refers specifically to the development of apps for the Android operating system, which is used on a variety of devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions. App development, on the other hand, refers more generally to the development of any type of application software, which can include apps for various operating systems such as Android, iOS, and Windows. So Android development is a subset of app development.
Android development is much different than apps development. In Android development, you have three main components: the Android engine (the first element is the main application), the Android SDK, and the Android Library. Each component must be run within your application on Android. The main application on Android is your main application, a wrapper that you write applets or scriptlets that you create as needed.
A wrapper is a component of your Android OS. The wrapper is a container that represents your main application. The Android Library is an optional element that serves as the main Android library which you write. Both of these components contain the same data structure, ...
... which is usually what you want, except for the Android Store in which the Data Library actually stores the raw data stored within your application.
