Developing Android apps starts with a clearly defined goal and an understanding of device variation. Establishing the MVP, selecting an architecture, and outlining key user flows early helps keep the initial release focused and minimizes rework as the app grows.

Once the base is in place, attention shifts to UI consistency, performance, and compatibility across OS versions and different screen sizes. Robust state management, careful networking, and reliable analytics/crash reporting make the app easier to support and iterate on after Google Play release.
