In February 2007 Apple launched the iPhone and revolutionised the way we use and think about mobile devices. Google had to react fast and, characteristically, they did. In November they announced the Open Handset Alliance – a consortium of manufacturers dedicated to developing open mobile device standards – and on the same day unveiled the Android operating system for mobile devices.
‘Google phones’ i.e. those which use the Android operating system have since captured over 30% of the smart phone market reaching parity with iPhone usage in some territories. The open source nature of the Android OS and the support it has form top manufacturers means we can expect that figure to grow and surpass Apple easily in the coming years. What also stands out from Nielsen figures is that Google phones tend to be favoured by a younger, more male, more tech-savvy audience who use their phones for more different activities than iPhone users.
The Potential of Android Applications
Large numbers of businesses are now exploiting the potential for mobile interactivity that the Google phone provides. More people are using their smart phones to browse company websites, download apps, register for newsletters or services or even purchase products online every day. Businesses and brands are making their products and services as Android friendly as possible so that their sites can be accesses anytime, anywhere.
Android apps can be used by businesses in a variety of ways, including:
- Revenue generation
- Brand promotion
- Expansion of online services
- SEO link building
But how does a business go about capturing a share of Google phone users? The answer lies with professional Android application developers. Whether you’re just looking to make your website smart phone friendly so that excessive scrolling and zooming doesn’t turn users away or you’re building a revenue generating app to sell through Android Market, an Android application development company can build an app to your desired specs, test it, launch it and even promote it.
Finding a Google Phone App Developer
Google phone apps run on the Android operating system so the developer of your app should have considerable experience of developing for this platform. To find likely candidates for your application look for developer credits on similar Android applications to that which you want developed and which you think have been well executed.
Creating a detailed brief for your app is essential to the process – you need to nail down how you want users to interact with the app and what the goals and objectives of those interactions are. You should try to include as much information (including sketches and diagrams) as possible. This will not only help the potential developers to ascertain the requirements of the job but also provide more accurate quotes.
