Outstanding features of the Android OS

In Nigeria at some point, Blackberry was the phone for all. Gradually androids and iPhones have taken over the market. Android for one, has a devoted fan base, and a large community of developers are funneling new apps into Google Play every day. So what stands Android OS out? And what makes the Android OS different from other mobile platforms? In short, it’s all in the code.

Android simply gives you all you want and more in an affordable package. The android OS is also very user-friendly as against iPhones. Anyone can customize an Android device. You can adjust how your battery indicator is displayed, add custom ringtones for people on your contact list, and add your favorite widgets to your Home screen. Or you can download third-party apps to help you customize the look of your notifications. If you do use outside apps to trick out your Android device, take extreme care to download only from trusted sources and review the app’s required permissions.

Google Integration

Android is built by Google,so it offers seamless integration with applications and services like Gmail, Google Maps, the Chrome browser and Google web search. If you use these applications on your desktop, then they’ll be familiar and friendly to you on an Android device. While you can certainly access a Gmail account from any OS, it’s easier to access quickly in Android.
