Android in Social Networks Jens Mücke, Xing More and more people are using Social Networks with Smartphones instead of or besides webbrowsers. Mobile Apps and a custom mobile website is common for every major social network. We want to show you our relevant points in developing our XING Android App. Starting with the design for the API, Performance and Security in Mobile and UI issues to make your app harmonize with all other mobile services XING offer to our members. Also we would like to share our development process including „lessons we learned the hard way“.
