Starting with a clear goal and awareness of device variety, Android app development sets the stage. Defining the MVP, choosing an architectural approach, and outlining key user flows early helps keep the initial release focused and reduces rework as the app expands.

Once the foundation is established, focus shifts to UI uniformity, speed, and compatibility across OS versions and screen sizes. Robust state management, careful networking, and dependable analytics/crash reporting simplify support and iteration after the Google Play launch.
