Creating an Android app starts with a well-defined purpose and awareness of device variety. Outlining the MVP, choosing an architecture, and mapping essential user journeys early keeps the initial launch focused and minimizes rework as the app evolves.

Once the foundation is established, focus moves to a consistent UI, performance, and compatibility across different OS versions and screen dimensions. Robust state management, careful networking, and dependable analytics/crash reporting simplify maintenance and iteration after the Google Play launch.
