Starting Android app development requires a well-defined product objective and awareness of device variety. Clarifying the MVP, choosing an architecture, and mapping essential user journeys early keeps the initial launch targeted and minimizes rework as the app scales.

Once the foundation is set, focus moves to UI uniformity, performance, and compatibility across different OS versions and screen dimensions. Robust state management, prudent networking, and trustworthy analytics and crash reporting simplify maintenance and iteration after the Google Play launch.
