Beyond SmartYour Android device is already smart, and it’s only going to get smarter. Android was the first to bring you features on certain devices like Face Unlock — which uses facial recognition to let you unlock your device with a smile, Android Beam — which lets you share contacts, directions and more by touching two devices together, and Google Now — which brings you just the right information, before you even ask.

WIDGETS Put the important stuff

right within reach and interact with your favorite apps directly from your home screen with widgets — see the latest sport scores, view your favorite photos, check the weather or peek at your inbox all without having to open different apps or leave the home screen.

Notifications

An easy-to-read notification tray gives you quick access to your calls, incoming texts, and new emails in a non-intrusive way.

Multi-Tasking With Android, you can quickly and

seamlessly switch between apps and pick up whatever you were doing. Juggling multiple tasks at once on a mobile device has never been easier.

Voice Typing & Action Control your Android device with your

voice. Simply touch the microphone on the keyboard and start talking to write emails, SMS, or any other text — more than 30 languages supported. Text appears in real time, so there’s no waiting.

Photos & Videos Capture special moments with great

photos and videos, explore your shots and quickly share your favourites in any way that you want.

Conclusion Android development is based on Java

programming. A person has to be a good Java programmer to learn Android application development.

Android applications doesn't get developed in a day or two, it requires lots of practice and hard work.
