ANDROID DEVELOPMENT
What native Android development involves
Android runs on thousands of device models. These are the areas we design and build for.
Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
Why Kotlin and Jetpack Compose? Kotlin is Google’s preferred language for Android, and Jetpack Compose is its modern declarative UI toolkit. Together they reduce code, speed up development and make interfaces easier to maintain.
–Kotlin and coroutines
–Jetpack Compose UI
–Material Design 3
–Accessibility support
Device fragmentation and testing
How do you test across so many Android devices? We define a device matrix based on your users, combining real devices and cloud device labs to cover screen sizes, Android versions and manufacturers that matter most.
–Device matrix planning
–Real device testing
–Cloud device labs
–Automated UI tests
Enterprise and rugged devices
Can apps run on rugged scanners and managed devices? Yes. Warehouse, logistics and field teams often use rugged Android devices with built-in barcode scanners. We build for these devices and deploy through managed Google Play with Android Enterprise.
See our Intune device management service.
–Built-in scanner support
