Summary

Android is really giving developers the tools to succeed, and there are even more tools available from the phone manufacturers themselves. Your job is to come up with an application that people need and is simple to use. You need to know what category your app will fit into and who your target audience will be. You should also check to see if someone else is doing what your application is doing, just so you know who the competition is. This information is going to come in useful when naming your application as well. There are some legal aspects that you should take care of. You should protect your intellectual property rights as appropriate with a copyright, trademark, or even a patent.
