Additional information

As my first official native Android application, I have to say that Android or Java programming are really quite hard and different from what I have been usually working on so far. I had lots of trouble to make everything function but in the end everything went well. I was kinda surprised with all the problems I got during the development for such an easy and simple application.

This project is kinda of a prototype so I decided to named it Test and use the default Android application logo. Nothing really special for a below average Android application. I was not even sure if I should include this as one of my most important and proudest projects but since this is the only official Android app that I have developed, I decided to include it to showcase that I have at least basic knowledge regarding Android development.

Overall, I had quite the bad experience with Android and one of my worst first time experiences. By counterpart, I had a really good time with my first iOS application, Shopping List, which I developed 6 months later than this one. It looks like both smartphones operating systems are complete opposites.
