The capabilities of Android applications are developed



This technology company explained in a blog post that it is developing “a new cross-device software kit” (SDK), which is the tools developers need to run their apps on multiple Android devices and eventually mobile phones, tablets, televisions, cars, etc. provides Android.

According to Aetna’s report from Mehr, the said SDK allows software developers to activate 3 important features in their apps. These capabilities include identifying devices in close proximity, establishing secure communication between devices, and hosting the app on multiple devices.

According to Google, the mentioned cross-device SDK uses Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, as well as “Ultra Wideband” to establish communication between multiple devices. “Ultra wideband” is actually a radio technology that uses a small level of energy in a wide range of radio waves to create short-range and high-bandwidth communications.

Google has explained various uses of its multi-device SDK, which seems to be very helpful in some cases. For example, with the help of this kit, several users can select and order items online on separate devices when ordering food in a group. In this way, they do not need to use the same mobile phone to order food.

Also, with the help of this kit, when setting a text on the computer, you can leave it half-finished and then continue the rest of the text on the mobile phone or tablet. Or even the passengers of a car can share a map of a specific location with the car’s navigation system.

Of course, this feature appears to be an extension of the Nearby Share feature that allows Android users to transfer files between Chromebooks and Android devices.

However, the SDK is currently provided for software developers and only works on Android phones and tablets. Google has decided to gradually expand the support of this feature to iOS and Windows systems. However, no date has been announced yet.
