Android app distribution platforms to release your app

Play Store, Google’s official Android app distribution platform for mobile apps running on Android OS, is usually the go-to place for Android Apps, but it’s not the only place. Here’s the list of some of the cool alternatives to Play Store where you can release and market your android app.

Google Play Store: Google Play, formerly Android Market, comes first in the list where you can release and market your Android app. Google Play is an official Android app distribution platform hosting nearly 3 million apps under various categories. Google Play should be your first choice when it comes to testing your app idea in the market.

Amazon Appstore: It's the second biggest Android app distribution platform after Google Play Store. This is the biggest rival to Google Play and offers free app release under various categories. Go, get your app listed on the Amazon AppStore to further boost your app downloads.

APKPure: One of the fastest-growing mobile apps distribution platforms. The APKPure platform allows you to list both Android and iOS apps. The website receives nearly 500,000 daily visitors that shows you the huge potential to grow your app audience.

Aptoide: Another popular app marketplace to launch your application. The app distribution platform claims to have more than 1 million apps available to be downloaded which generated 7 billion app downloads so far.

FAQs

1. I want to build an Android app. Where should I start?

We'd obviously suggest heading over to Builder Studio where the world's first AI powered software expert will help you build an app for Android devices faster and more cost effectively than a traditional app builder service. You don't even need any programming skills.

2. What are the benefits of Android apps?

Android has 73% of the global market. This varies by country and demographic, so you'll need to do research before you start. If the majority of your target audience has an Android device, it makes sense to offer them an amazing user experience. Native mobile apps can work offline and they offer a smoother, more responsive feel.

3. Which programming language is the best to build Android apps?

Native code means your actual application will be more responsive. But which language should you choose for these lines of code?

Java – the original Android language. It dominated as developers say it's easy to use, flexible and it's familiar to them. Examples of apps built with Java are Spotify, Signal and Twitter.

Ruby on Rails (RoR) – one of the most time-efficient languages, it's very flexible too. This is the language Builder.ai uses. Examples of apps written in Ruby are AirBnB, GitHub and Groupon.

Kotlin – Google has announced Kotlin as an official Android development language (especially popular in Android Studio). Used to build Slack, WordPress and Netflix.

C++ – complicated to master but stable and supports Unreal Engine (for gaming). Examples of apps written in C++ are Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft and the majority of games.

4. What programs do I need to build an Android app?

If you've got app development experience, you can just download Android Studio. It's an integrated development environment with a code editor and a preview to see all the changes as you make them.

Break your app down into actionable steps and get advice from the active community of Android developers. Or avoid all of that and have a quick chat with our experts who'll handle everything for you.

5. How do you make an app step by step?

Ok, so you're making an app with no programming experience: what's your best option? You'll find lots of online courses. But can you create apps without code? Yes!

The advantage to building apps with an app builder is speed (we're 6x faster even than traditional developers, thanks to our award-winning AI. So compared to someone who's learning, you'll get your app much quicker!) And getting your app onto Google Play Store fast can be the difference between success and irrelevance.

Most important, you need to offer an amazing user experience. It's time to explore app design, why not read How to design an app: the complete guide next?
