Android Developers Must Know: What is the best approach to develop an Android App?


In the present world, there are many erstwhile software development experts – both organizations and individuals - prefer engaging their talent in building android apps, for the reasons obvious. Though there are many ways (read, models) to develop an app, the development team needs to put their heads down to decide on the approach that’s waterproof and efficient. If the approach towards the development of an app is good then there are maximum chances for an app to be successful.
So, better the development approach is, better will be the app.
But then what is a better approach?
The blueprint of success
The first and foremost step is to install an Android SDK. After that the developer should build a solution project, based on which a test application should be run to see if the development environment is properly setup or not.
After the final setup of the development environment, an android app company, or an individual that may be (depending on the scale and budget of an app) should finalize the user interface of the app. If the coding part is started without finalizing the design, then designing while coding or after the coding is a cumbersome process.
A good android app development solution is that one which acts as per the user interface. So addition of action bar as per the activity of the app is very essential.
Now a day, an app which runs on different devices like tablet, mobile etc. smoothly without any interference is sure to garner more subscription, and thus business. The developer will have to assess is there any requirement to integrate any alternative resource or by internal coding device supportive app can be developed.
A good app always knows when to execute a program and when to wait for a program to finish before starting another program. This process of execution is known as Activity Life Cycle. The developer of an android app company should write the code to start an activity, pause an activity, resume an activity and finish an activity.
A user interface of an app should response based on resolution of the device. The developer should decide how to maintain the screen responsiveness so that he/she will doesn’t have to compile multiple .apk files for multiple devices; rather a single .apk should complete the task.
The nature of the data transfer defines the speed of the app. In case of some static data which are not defined to change always then these data can be stored in the local temporary memory of the device, some data which are tend to change dynamically these data need to be stored and retrieved in and from a web centric database of app development solution. But if the data is travelled through a web database then the speed of the app will be much slower, so the developer has to optimize and use the database in a smarter way.
Interaction of the app with other apps should also be considered by the developer. Like an app which sends the image of the product by enabling the user to capture through device camera.
By following these above steps a good and precise app can be built. For a more precise hand-holding contact a professional app developer.
