Starting Android app development requires a defined product objective and awareness of device variety. By outlining the MVP, choosing an architecture, and mapping key user flows early, the initial release stays focused and minimizes rework as the app expands.

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