Get ready for the upcoming Android Dev Summit with the official app
- Google has announced the official app for the upcoming Android Dev Summit.
- The app presents a schedule of all of the conference’s events and lets you livestream the conference.
- The app also works as an Instant App, which lets you use the app without fully downloading it onto your device.
With Google’s Android Developer Summit right around the corner, the company has announced the official app for the upcoming developer get-together.
The app lets you look through the conference schedule and all of the keynotes, sessions, and lightning talks that will take place over the two days. You can also save those events to your own calendar, they’re color-coded based on type (like breaks or sessions).
You can also stream the event from the app, though you can also stream it from the website if the app does not fit your needs.
As a nice bonus, the Android Dev Summit app also doubles as an Instant App. This lets you try out the app without needing to fully download it on your device. That is why you will see the “Open App” option when you get to the Android Dev Summit app on the Play Store.
As for the event itself, the Android Dev Summit is expected to bring together Android developers from various walks of life for two days of technical sessions with Google’s engineering team. There is even a keynote speech, which vice president of Android engineering Dave Burke and group product manager for Google Search and Ads Stephanie Cuthbertson hosted during 2017’s Android Dev Summit.
The discussions during this year’s Android Dev Summit will likely focus on the nitty-gritty of Android and its SDK tools. That compares drastically to Google I/O, which typically delivers more consumer-friendly news and developments.
You can download the Android Dev Summit 2018 app at the link below. You can also follow the developments on Twitter. The Android Dev Summit will be held in the Computer History Museum in California and go from November 7 through November 8.
