Sector development of mobile applications is growing. This is simply because the number of smartphone sales is much higher than in desktop computers or laptops. Studies have shown that sales of smartphones for years are more than three times the number of sales of desktop PCs a year. Google has established itself as a search engine leading to the reading of over one billion search requests per day. Google is already a dominant player when it comes to desktop computers, but this is not the case for smart phones. The Smartphone market is very new, and on the other hand, Google would never like her dominance to be threatened. It is for this reason that Google has ventured into the Smartphone market with the forthcoming Android operating system.
The unique selling proposition of Android is open source. A closer look at the scenario reveals that the experience of mobile applications is much lower than the simulation applications. Google was the first to identify and recognize the main reason for that. According to developers of mobile applications from Google have been subjected to many restrictions and it has been to limit their creativity. Limitation of application developers is well illustrated by the strategy of Apple not to approve applications submitted by third parties. It is very likely because of fears that Apple's applications could replace the built-in iphone. Second, Android is an open source platform that facilitates application developers to create Android applications without paying a fee. Android policy is such that it encourages developers to develop new applications by combining information from different sources like other smart phones and the Internet.
Most smart phones operate on a closed system. This means that the programs authorized by the manufacturer cannot be installed on the Smartphone device. To use this authentication becomes mandatory for the developer of applications for certificates for code signing. The procedure for code signing certificates is time consuming and involves a lot of expenses. This is not the case with the development of Android applications. When the application developer has developed an Android application, he / she can install the program immediately. Since the development of Android applications saves time, money and resources to Android developers are developing applications to be less expensive than developing applications for other operating systems and platforms.
Android applications are a threat to mobile network providers and device manufacturers. Text messages, if Google offers free Voice by an application for Android. This means that Android based phone users should not use text messaging service offered by mobile network provider. Android applications are such that it can totally change the phone's features. Manufacturers want their phones to be unique and do not change with the whims and fancies of others.
