  <p itemprop="description">Google offers a variety of services that help you
build new revenue streams, manage app distribution,
track app usage, and enhance your app with features such as maps, sign-in, and
cloud messaging.</p>
  <p>Although these Google services are not included in the Android platform, they are
  supported by most Android-powered devices. When using these services, you can
  distribute your app on Google Play to all devices running Android 2.3
  or higher, and some services support even more devices.</p>
