And you know that today, the Android operating system birthday? Of course, you can argue and cite as an example other dates, but this day is definitely memorable. On November 5, 2007, Google and another 33 companies announced the formation of the organization Open Handset Alliance , which was designed to develop and promote an open mobile operating system called Android.
The first device, however, appeared only a year later - it was the HTC G1 smartphone for the T-Mobile mobile operator. Somewhere a week after it became aware of the alliance, Google released the first SDK that allowed it to create applications for the platform. And now, after five years, Android is the main operating system on the market of smartphones and tablets, and Apple can be considered the only competitor with the iOS operating system. As for the Open Handset Alliance, there are already 84 companies in it, including equipment manufacturers, application developers, mobile operators and others.
