When creating an app for a mobile device size and design are a crucial part of the mix. It's not enough to have a good idea, but you need an idea that works and is easy to use on a small touch screen device. To many times people have a great initial idea but it seems that it gets lost in translation on its way to code.One of the reasons why some apps make it and others don't is because they took the time to plan out their app, see how it works & looks before even writing down one piece of code. This simple process of spending time in concept and design changes everything. It's a critical part of the app evolution process to have a good, successful and well thought out app. This book gives you a tool to do just that. It is setup to give you a place to put down your initial app scope, and then go more into detail on what your screen will do. Followed by the chance to sketch it out and see your app come to life before going into code to create it. By having a place where you can create all your screens with the details it saves you time and money by allowing you to change and create new options that might be a bit more complicated to do if you just started coding from the beginning. It also has a place for you to put down your notes, create a description for the Android Market and even a place to create your apps icon too. This portable canvas allows you to create designs for Tablet and Smartphone devices in the Android Mobile OS environment.
