Android

Android is the operating system created by the company Google Inc ., and is one of the most important pillars of the Mountain View empire.

It is an embedded system specially designed for smartphone and tablet, whose interfaces can also be specialized for televisions, watches, glasses, cars and many other objects and appliances.

One of the strengths of Android, which makes it the operating system for mobile technologies most popular in the world, is the development through the Android Open Source Project which makes it free software with the exception of some firmware like those of the Google Apps. Android is available to anyone who wants to develop an operating system and is distributed under the terms of the free Apache 2.0 license.

The programming language is based on a Linux kernel, a feature that allows not only to make it cheap, but also to modify it at will.

The planetary primacy of Android was achieved in January 2017, when with 63.99% of the mobile market it rose to first place as the most popular operating system in the world.

The logo of Android is a little green robot, which has now become the symbol of ever stronger technology.
