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

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