Android For All

" summary

Android reaches 190 countries with about 1,000,000 activations per day and ~2 billion devices, so build for low-end hardware and tiny budgets: aim for ~10 MB APKs (company keeps theirs ~2 MB), split media into separate downloads, use multiple APKs, WebP, job-queue batching, and caching to save data costs that can be ~10% of income. Prototype in the field (Arusha example) reveals observation bias; an offline-capable app queues syncs and shows perceived performance so users trust actions; use profiling, Battery Historian and Espresso test recording.
