doesn’t just appear on smartphones but also on smartwatches, Android TVs, and Android Auto.
There are over 2.6 million apps available on the official Google Play store. In addition

based on Android, like Chrome OS and Windows 11, can also run Android apps. So, how do you make

An Android Developer specializes in building applications for Android devices of different forms. He stays on top of the features of the new version of Android released every year and leverages them in the application while staying compatible with older versions of Android.
There are specific skills that you should look for in the Android developer you hire
Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed language used by 60% of Android developers. The Android developer you hire should be able to leverage the benefits that Kotlin brings - Concise coding, Null safety, Coroutines, Extension Functions, Higher-order Functions, etc. Java, on the other hand, is a general-purpose programming language that remains a popular choice for building enterprise-scale applications. Kotlin and Java are interoperable, so it is common to find codebases using both of these languages, and that means the developer should be proficient in both of these languages.
Android Studio provides a powerful set of tools that helps developers to build apps faster for different Android devices. It is extremely important for the developer you hire to be able to use profilers to identify performance bottlenecks, inspect heap and memory allocation and network payloads, use emulators to test the app on multiple device configurations, use various other tools for analyzing the APK, for creating multiple build variants using Gradle and so on.
Android SDK (Software Development Kit) is a toolkit used to develop applications for the Android platform. An experienced Android developer should have a solid knowledge of fundamental concepts like activity, lifecycle, views, handling UI events, data handling and so on.
It is not a luxury but a necessity these days for an Android app to be beautiful and intuitive in addition to being usable in order to stand out in the crowd. The Android developer should be able to proactively collaborate with the UI/UX designer to bring out the best design output and an impressive user experience.
Most mobile apps will require back-and-forth communication with backend servers to fetch/save user data, and this requires a profound knowledge of REST and SOAP API calls. Make sure to question the candidate on these web service architectures, how to choose between them, JSON and XML data formats and key aspects of communication - authentication and authorization.
Yet another crucial skill to look for in any developer is a deep understanding of Version Control systems like Git. He/she will be collaborating with a team of multiple Android developers and backend developers hence working knowledge of version control systems is important to ensure code sanity.
