| <blockquote>Android's flexible framework means it runs on more devices and reaches more |
| users</blockquote> |
| |
| <p>Android powers millions of devices around the world and in a variety of form-factors. The Android |
| framework is specially built to run apps on more than just one screen size and hardware |
| configuration. As an app developer, Android's scale and variety offers you the potential to quickly |
| reach millions of users.</p> |
| |
| <p>Android apps are flexible and easily adapt to the device on which they are running. Although the |
| system scales your assets when necessary, you can provide alternative app resources that are |
| optimized for specific device categories, such as the screen size and density. Android applies the |
| appropriate resources when running your app, based on the current device’s configuration.</p> |
| |
| <blockquote>You're in control of which devices can install your app</blockquote> |
| |
| <p>Some devices provide a different user experience when using apps, but you’re always in control of |
| how your app behaves on each device. If you publish your app on Google Play, you also have |
| control over which kinds of devices are allowed to install your app and you can closely control how |
| your app is distributed.</p> |
| |
| <p>Every device that includes Google Play has been certified compatible. This means that |
| the device has passed a rigorous test suite to ensure that the device uses a version of Android that |
| supports all the platform APIs and will successfully run your app.</p> |
