Android is an operating system developed by Google Inc. and based on the Linux kernel.
Android is an embedded system designed primarily for tablets, PDAs and smartphones but thanks to its open (Open Source Project) and customisable character it has allowed the development of ad hoc user interfaces also on other electronic devices including televisions (Android TV), cars (Android Auto), watches (Android Wear), glasses (Google Glass), etc.
The user interface is based on the concept of 'direct manipulation' in which the user uses the touch screen pointing system to manipulate the objects visible on the screen. Hardware sensors present on the terminals (such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and proximity sensors) are used by some applications to respond to user actions, such as adjusting the screen from vertical to horizontal depending on how the device is oriented.
The Homescreen, similar to the Windows desktop, represents the main screen of the operating system occupied by application icons and widgets.
At the top of the screen is a status bar, which shows information about the terminal and its connectivity.
Today Android is a safe and reliable operating system both in terms of performance and in terms of cyber security.
