Creating an Android app starts with a well-defined product goal and awareness of device variety. Pinpointing the MVP, choosing an architecture, and outlining key user paths early keeps the initial release focused and minimizes rework as the app expands.

With the foundation established, focus moves to UI coherence, performance, and compatibility across OS versions and display sizes. Robust state management, prudent networking, and dependable analytics/crash reporting simplify maintenance and iteration post-Google Play launch.
