Starting Android app development requires a clear product objective and awareness of device variety. Defining the MVP, choosing an architecture, and outlining key user flows early help keep the initial release focused and minimize rework as the app expands.

Once the foundation is in place, focus shifts to UI consistency, performance, and compatibility across different OS versions and screen sizes. Robust state management, careful networking, and dependable analytics and crash reporting simplify support and iteration after publishing on Google Play.
