Android App Development This Year

Mobile World Congress 2016 at Barcelona kicked off with two best android phones of this year. LG G5 and Samsung S7, both attracted everyone on the first day itself with high expectations. While everyone is comparing both the phones and their features, alignment with the trending technologies has become a prime requirement of an Android App development company for rest of the year.

Both the Android phones upgraded their older versions and did everything to get compared with their rivals. Samsung compared themselves with Apple and LG compared themselves with Samsung. The MWC 2016 is getting more concerned in terms of camera features and Vulkan API regarding both the phones. The accessories like 360-Degree Cameras, rollerballs and Virtual reality Focuses have taken the level of android applications to an upper level and getting competent for third party Android App development company. Though, the upcoming technologies in both the phones are based on the accessories, while the third party Android App development company do not have this option.

Yet, applications like Camera 360 and games developed by third parties for Gear VR are also among the most awaited types of application in the Android market. App development company, the upgraded RAM and the processor have been most talked features among the Android technicians. New Android applications developed by companies are with a limitation of not having a hardware accessory, but this can be a curse also.

 


Next big thing that one can expect from the MWC in the upcoming years is accessories developed by third parties in the same manner as the development of applications. One might see drones, security systems, parking systems, and etc. that are provided by third party Android App development company and sold in the Google Play market in the same manner as the third party applications. Vulkan API seems to have changed the desktop gaming experiences and it will be the hot topic of conversation in the year 2016.

The desktop gaming has of course dominated a way far in comparison to mobile gaming experiences. Thus, it will be another challenge that to a third party Android app development company to incorporate the need of technological interventions, as the mobile phone applications utility and reliability have increased with increasing cores of the processor. Thus, APIs for such advanced applications will be a new outcome of the advancement in API used by an Android App development company. Both LG G5 and Samsung S7 have their own pros and cons and are superior to their older versions introduced in the last years MWC. It is clear that the coming year's technologies will introduce the hardware of the phones and the specific accessories, which affects an Android App development company in a way to get synchronised with the trend of IT and its applications.
