Android API

An Android API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of tools and rules that developers use to create apps for Android devices. It provides predefined functions and protocols that allow apps to communicate with the device’s hardware (like cameras, sensors, and storage) and software systems. Essentially, the API acts as a bridge, enabling different apps and components to work together smoothly and securely, while abstracting complex hardware details. By using Android APIs, developers can build feature-rich apps without needing to understand the intricate workings of the device’s hardware and operating system.
