1 Cool Facts About Android

2 Google has finally unveiled their Latest Mobile Devices, the Pixel 2 and the Pixel 2Xl. They runs the latest and much awaited android Oreo with refined notifications and much smoother UI. The devices would be available for Pre-Order on Flipkart pretty soon. The Android operating system has the largest market share in Android has taken leaps and bounds to reach where it is now. Let’s check out some trivia about the beloved OS.

3 Built By But Not Invented By Google
The OS was built by Android Inc. which was founded by Andy Rubin who previously worked at Apple. HE was called android by his co- workers due to his love for robots. Android was developed initially as an operating system for cameras. Later it was pitched as a mobile operating system, due to its potential to rival market leaders like Symbian and Windows. In the early days of Androic Inc. Samsung had an opportunity to invest in the project, but they passed. In Google took an interest in the project. Later in 2005, Google acquired the company for a said amount of 50 million$. Andy Rubin and his team joined Google as a result of the acquisition. After the iphone launch in 2007 Google took some time to improve and launch the operating system on November 5, 2007.

4 Highest Market Share The HTC Dream was one of the first mobile to run on an android OS in Back then market leaders like Nokia didn’t feel a threat from the new kid in town. Fast forward into the future we see that Nokia and windows OS & mobiles have gone extinct. Nobody could expect Android’s tremendous growth. Currently Android commands over 80% of the market share, competing majorly against IOS. Google has reported that, more than 1.3 Billion users are active on android run mobiles & tablets

5 Named After Sweet Treats
Apart From the earlier version of the Os Which were Android 1.0 and 1.1, all Android versions that followed, are named after sweet treats, like Jelly Bean, Lollipop, Marshmallow to name a few. The Os has been released in alphabetical order starting with android c, which was called cupcake. The reason behind using such a nomenclature is due to ease of naming the multitude of versions which would be released eventually. Google says that it is an internal team thing to be inscrutable.

6 Open Source Google has been an open source platform which allows developers to customize it. Therefore we see custom android on different phones. Samsung has the heavily modified Samsung Experience as its user interface. Oneplus uses a custom android based sytem called Oxygen OS which is more close to Google’s version of android. Android allows developers the freedom to make something new. All these custom ecosystems are android based and reflect the developer’s vision. Google does not take a cut from Oem’s as it’s an open source platform. Google gets its revenue mostly in the form of advertisements.

7 The Mascot The Human robot like logo which is the mascot of the android Os was created by a designer by the name of Irina Blok. It resembles a male robot, and is called Bugdroid internally by team members at Google.

8 Google android has changed the way we use our mobile devices with its amazing day to day usage applications like maps, Google Music & More. If you are one of those proud owners of an android device like me, then you can now feel great to be part of the android family.

Any Android device can be easily hacked if the user is not protecting it with a password/pattern lock and if the software is not up to date; Once the device is hacked, everything within, including private documents, notes of accounts, credit cards details, etc. will be in wrong hands. Conclusion – Do install an Anti-Virus What about Android Security?

25 pixel) Network access may be slow and (very) intermittent
