THE ANDROID ADVANTAGE
Android is the popular OS developed by Google. It offers a large number
of applications. Some of the key features that have made it hugely
popular are;
Google Play: This application acts like a marketplace where you can
source various applications from one point and vendors and
publishers can publish various software applications, e-books etc. on
the interface. The Google Play application directly allows users and
vendors to purchase and sell various applications without the
involvement of third parties. Google play also recognizes the device
you are using and therefore only displays the applications compatible
with your device.
Android is secure as it imposes more restrictions on applications that
require access to phone resources such as network, memory etc. You
can also download various third party applications to prevent Internet
malwares.
You can also back up your contacts on remote servers offered for free
by Google. You can back up data like media files, contacts etc. The
backed up data can also be deleted from the remote servers in case
your phone gets stolen. This acts as an additional security feature.
Android phones offer you with access to unlimited entertainment
sources. New applications are added almost daily to give you a never
ending fun experience.
Downloading and installing applications from Android is inexpensive

as most of the applications are free or come at reasonable price tags.
Android OS facilitates multitasking which allows you to work on more
than one application at a time, thereby improving the functionality of
the phone.
Android boasts of ever improving technology. Since its introduction,
the application store has grown manifold and the features have been
improved and enhanced.
