The mobile application is taking over the world and changing it into a digitally driven system.Thousands of mobile applications are adding to the app world every week.
Goole in its I/O event of 2017 discusses the apps have 1- star rating in the Play store.
Every mobile app is competing to make its way out to the top of the list in play store.
Google’s I/O event of this year have given many surprises including Instant apps and Google assistance for iOS but it also revealed Google intention for the law rated apps.

As part of the Android Operative system, there is a restriction that blocks installing applications outside of the Google Play Store.
There is a way to allow the installation of third-party APK files without going through the Play store, though it will require some configuration on your part.
If you run an APK on your device without first enabling the feature, you will see the following on your screen.

1 – Open the App on your Android device, and tap on the SETTINGS.
As the Android platform is quickly developing at a fast pace, more companies are making tools that allow developers to do almost everything easily, without the need to start from scratch.
The Evolution of development tools
With the growing demand, Android has undergone many improvements and therefore developers have tried to reduce the duration of the development lifecycles.
All businesses are looking forward to introducing solutions that cater to consumer’s requirement.
Wide range of Android tools
App Development Tools are divided into four macro-categories:
You have to understand each language before a program with them.
It is the official programming language supported by the Android Studio Development environment.
Knowledge of Java language will allow developers of a company not only to create new applications but also to maintain existing sources, work with existing source code.
Like the object-oriented programming language, class constructors in it have a bunch of features in the form of exceptions, which leads to a decline in applications during operation, and should be kept in mind when other points are always developed.
Many developers consider Kotlin as a cover on Java, and only after learning to feel confident in their knowledge of Java, it is recommended to learn it.
Its creators managed to avoid NullPointExceptions, and the compilation is no longer interrupted due to the small things like “Forgot”.
This has specifically aided Android significantly in gaining market share.
The Android operating system is projected to account for almost 60 percent of the global tablet operating system market share by 2020.
SQL is required to query the database (insert, modify, delete and drop records)
Android Software Development Kit (SDK) and Android Studio – Android Studio is the officially integrated development environment (IDE) for Android App Development.
Developers write code with help of Android packages and libraries.
With Kotlin existing libraries can be leveraged for the JVM, Android and the browser.
