Description
Today, Android is no longer just an operating system for a smartphone, but an entire infrastructure. Not only phones, tablets, and computers run on this operating system, but also televisions and even refrigerators.
The first version of the OS, Android 1.0 l, was released in 1008, but its history began five years earlier, in 2003 when Andy Rubin gathered a team to create a mobile operating system and incorporated Android Inc. Developers were first focused on devices that could be in users’ possession at all times, determine location by GPS, and automatically adjust to a person’s needs.
In the early stages of its accelerated development, Android had a very aggressive release schedule. We often saw several releases a year and at its peak in 2009, Android received at least four significant updates. Only very recently has Google started releasing annual major updates.In 2011, Android became the most popular mobile operating system in the world.
