What is Android?

Android is a Linux-based operating system designed
primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as
smartphones and tablet computers. Initially
developed by Android, Inc., which Google
backed financially and later purchased in 2005.


Android is open source
and Google releases the
code under the Apache
License.This open source
code and permissive
licensing allows the
software to be freely
modified and distributed
by device manufacturers,
wireless carriers and
enthusiast developers.

Interface

 Android's user interface is based on direct
manipulation, using touch inputs that loosely
correspond to real-world actions, like swiping,
tapping, pinching and reverse pinching to
manipulate on-screen objects.The response to user
input is designed to be immediate and provides a
fluid touch interface. Internal hardware such as
accelerometers, gyroscopes and proximity sensors are
used by some applications to respond to additional
user actions

Applications

 Android has a growing
selection of third party
applications, which can
be acquired by users
either through an app
store such as Google Play
or the Amazon Appstore,
or by downloading and
installing the application's
APK file from a third-party
site.

Usage share of Android
versions

 Usage share of the
different versions as of
January 3, 2013. Most
Android devices to
date still run the older
OS version
2.3 Gingerbread that
was released on
December 6, 2010,
due to most lower-end
devices still being
released with it.
