It all started with a sweet and healthy competition with Apple and Google about the Smartphone Development and obviously it’s OS. Microsoft by that time had already implemented it windows CE or you can say windows mobile and been in the market from some time. With Apple coming out with iOS with dedicated hardware called iPhone, it was Google’s time to give the good news. Well it did not went well, with announcing launch of Android OS, Google introduced Nexus 1, smartphone supporting Android OS. Just like development for iPhone Application, enthusiastic developer started Android Application Development with SDK provided by Google.

After spending some time on the SDK, developers across thee glob realized Android Application Development is not going to be same as what they do for iPhone or iPad. Being dependant on Java Android Application Development needed good amount of skill set and a very logical mind to really come through some working apps. Unlike iOS SDK, there are not many features which really provide you good command on user interface design or any drag and drop features. Android Application Development hit ...
... the block when developers got frustrated with slow response in debugging and running the simulators, also basic functions like rotation of simulator from portrait to landscape mode not work well.

Google came-up with more stable and useful update in beginning of 2010 and it really made some big differenced both in case of user experience of the new Android OS and Android Application Development field. Developers started using the new SDK and appreciated the changes and more smooth flow and more responsive simulator of the smartphone with different base os options to select from for the testing. As it grew, market understood the potential of Android based device due to its low cost and variety of handsets to choose from and hence Google Android based phones started to capture market, still leaded by Symbian based phones. As market has grew so as the Android Application Development Business.

Android Application Development, we cannot say is neck to neck as iPhone app development, but is surely giving good opportunity for today’s Java developers to do something more creative and different. And if you know java well, Android Application Development is something can be done with it. Most positive point of Android Application Development and launching your app on market is you in short time will know how your creation is received and what people think about it, by reviews and instant uploading provided by Google, unlike Apple which takes sometimes about 3 - 4 days for the approval.
