Using an AsyncTask to perform background operations comes next, and then services, BroadcastReceivers, and system notifications are explained. The video continues with saving data via SharedPreferences and the file system and enhancing the UI with themes and animations and finishes with tips for becoming more efficient with Android Studio and how to submit an app to the Play Store. After watching this video series, developers will be able to create Android applications from scratch and dive into advanced Android topics."--Resource description page UR - http://ezproxy.alfaisal.edu/login?url=http://academic.safaribooksonline.com/?uiCode=sdl&xmlId=9780134299723 ER -
