1. Offshore Android Mobile Application Development-
Overview-Trends
In recent years, the mobile and internet technologies have shown prominent growth across the
globe. And therefore, in order to fulfill variety of needs at both individual and enterprise level
the demand of mobile applications is increasing day by day.
At present, mobile application development has become one of the most prominent services
that are being offered by mobile apps development companies. Since its inception, Android has
shown tremendous growth and has been considered one of the most prominent technology
platforms available for mobile apps development. In general terms, Android is an open source
operating system that is based upon Linux and has been developed by Google and Open Handset
Alliance (a pool of 84 software, hardware and telecommunication companies). The Android is
based upon Linux Kernel, middleware, libraries and APIs that are written in C programming
language. And, the application software runs on application framework that includes Java
compatible libraries that are based upon Apache Harmony.
Generally applications are developed with Java language using Android SDK (Software
Development Kit) Developers write code in a customized version of Java and can develop third
party applications that can be run on Android based mobile phone / smart-phone or devices.
Apart from this, other mobile apps development tools are also available including Native
Development Kit or some extensions in C or C++.
Android provides variety of features and benefits for Android application development. It has
been considered one of the most flexible development platforms used for mobile apps
development. Since, it is an open source mobile platform that is based upon Linux therefore; it
provides wide scope of customization of mobile apps according to requirement. It consists of
large collection of inbuilt libraries including 2D graphics library, 3D graphics library, VGA and
supports all major audio, video and still media formats in order to develop handset layouts and
rich applications. It provides various tools that are inbuilt and help in running, debugging and
testing various types of applications.
It supports all major internet and data connectivity platforms including Bluetooth, GSM, EDGE,
IDEN, Wi-Fi etc. A lightweight database named, SQLite is used for data storage and restoration.
Because it provides a flexible and multitasking environment for development therefore,
developers can have more control over application’s appearance. Further to this, it doesn’t
differentiate the third-party applications and phone’s core applications and therefore it provides
wider scope of development. The Android operating system could be used on various devices
such as mobile phones, smart-phones, net-books, tablet computers etc. In order to have wider
reach to its users, there is an online store is available named Android Market developed by

2. Google through which, one can browse and download various applications published by many
third-party developers.
With help of Android mobile apps development, applications could be developed for many
verticals of different needs ranging from business, entertainment and gaming , finance,
marketing and advertising, social networking, healthcare, utility, travel and lifestyle, multimedia,
CRM etc. targeting all major industries.
The increasing penetration of multi-featured smart-phones and different types of individual and
business requirements are few factors that can be considered as a driving force for Android based
application development. In coming days, certainly the offshore Android apps development is
going to see much higher growth with more advancement in features and technology.
