Smartphone’s based on android people prefer these more. But eventually
this statement needs to be backed by supporting facts and in the following
part of this write-up those parts are highlighted.

and these factors have prompted people around the world to go ahead
with android based phones in more number. Just a resent comparison of
global industry coverage among iOS ad android had revealed quite some
facts.

There are quite a few favorable points which have eluded developers to
shift the gear of their careers towards android app development then with
any other mobile OS. The prime reason is very much understandable and
i.e. huge user base. When there is a mass follower of any particular
technology the demand for that if quite high and in this context the price
of development too, hence lucrative option.
But, only relying on these kinds of factors while choosing the career path is
not to be much trusted with while hiring any developer. As per the survey
done by Strategy Analytics Inc. Android is the most favored platform for
both developer and clients for both past year and this, i.e. 2015.

7. Statistics
Among other factors the rise in the app development popularity the report
of Comscore can be mentioned. By the year 2014 the number of
smartphone and tablets owners globally has been recorded to be of
somewhat around 143 million, whereas owners of laptop or desktop is 71

This was again another decisive moment when the mobile industry took
the leading prize from the desktop platform and initiated the mass
acceptance of apps.
The cross-platform applications started to be delivered by big brands so as
to contain their customer loyalty. Much transition has been even recorded
in the design industry with the introduction of responsive design and
mobile friendly HTML5 usage.

8. Conclusion
Much has been said about the Android-centric development
part, but the prime part revolves around the implementation
and skill-set that one has while crafting the app from the user.
Thus, make sure to pick the best of the breed for your project.
