This post teaches you how to build your first Android app. You’ll learn how to create, debug and run an Android app. You'll also learn some fundamentals of Android app design, including how to build a simple user interface and handle user input.

Before you start, be sure you have your development environment set up.

You need to:

• Download the Android SDK.
• Install the ADT plug-in for Eclipse (if you’ll use the Eclipse IDE).
• Download the latest SDK tools and platforms using the SDK Manager.

You're ready to develop your android application. The Android software development kit (SDK) includes a complete set of development tools. These include a debugger, libraries, a handset emulator based on QEMU, documentation, sample code, and tutorials. The Android SDK provides you the API libraries and developer tools necessary to build, test, and debug apps for Android.

Android application development is the process by which new applications are created for the Android operating system. Applications are usually developed in the Java programming language using the Android Software Development Kit, but other development tools are available. As of October 2012, more than 700,000 applications have been developed for Android, with over 25 billion downloads.

Android App Ideas

Review for Android App : BookMyShow

BookMyShow is one of the best website for booking tickets and passes for movies and lots more. They have released an app for solving this purpose on mobile phones as well.

This time I have reviewed the Android App and checked how well it fits on the ground. 
Last Year when i was near Mumbai, i wanted to watch a movie, i downloaded and used this app, the app was nice and very user friendly but i couldn't make-it to the show as my route was diverted from Pune to New Delhi

What it does? :

You can get tickets prices, tickets and schedules for:

• Movies
• T20 Cricket
• F1 Races
• Arts & Auctions
• Plays & Concerts
• 
  How it works?
  Whenever you open the app, it gets the splash of BookMyShow with different icons on it.
  And then comes on to the main screen of the app,
  

  

The way this app helped:

Step 1: (Select You Mood) 

I have chosen Movies from Home Tab, 

which has four major categories:

First is MoviesSecond is Arts & TheatreThird is SportsAnd the Fourth which is about to come: Events

You can choose any option according to your own choice.

At the bottom of the screen, there are four tabs:

        1. Home: takes you back to this screen.

        2. Booking History: where you can see past transactions

        3. Help: complete and extensive help in case of refund and other queries

        4. About Us : Version Description

Step 2: (Select The Watchables)

Next screen is the different types of the movies available. I have selected my location from the top right hand corner and the movies came listed on the same page.

Step 3: (Your Place, Your Time)

Third is the Date and Showtime chooser on the same page you can find the ratings and cast info of the movie you selected in “MoreInfo” tab.

Step 4: (Check your Pocket-Size)

Select the ticket Category you want to choose from here whichever is available in the Cinema Hall you have chosen.(As per the rules its not legal to show the prices of a category)

Step 5: (Select your own Viewing Angle)

Different colors are given to different status of the seats. 

Step 6: (Payment Page) 

Several options to pay ranging from Credit to Cash Card.

Step 7: (Happy Viewing)

Once done with Payment, You’ll get a ticket number and Transaction Id for the record within the app, on the Mobile Number and e-mail address you have mentioned at the time of payment.
