The Creation of Alternatives for the Built-in Apps in the Android System to Increase Productivity
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper aims to present the development, challenges, and obstacles faced when creating two reduced complexity utility applications for Android mobile devices. The purpose of this paper is to present the challenges behind the development of these applications and the issues faced during their creation. The first app is a simplified gallery app that tries to be as simple as possible. It only has the functionality of a photo gallery; it loads images and videos—nothing less, nothing more. The second app is the simplified file manager app, which will perform only the basic functions of a file manager (Details, New Folder, Cut, Copy, Paste, Rename, Share, and Delete). These apps were also made because of the countless functionalities that are not even used.
