Or to put it another way, thousands of wildly different form factors run all sorts of Android versions and variations, making it problematic to build an app that will successfully run on everything out there. However, the freedom that Google gave hardware manufacturers also came with a singular drawback: fragmentation. Because Google opted to give away the OS to any hardware manufacturer, there are over a billion active Android devices worldwide-a substantial install base for your next app. If you’re a developer, there are lots of reasons to consider Android as a platform for your software-building endeavors. (In keeping with Google’s longtime naming tradition, the “Q” will likely become a dessert of some sort-good luck thinking of a good one that starts with that letter.)
Its next iteration, codenamed “Q,” will certainly appear before the end of the year. Google’s Android operating system is now more than a decade old.
