4. Gradle Build System Android Studio gives the advantage of Gradle set of build tools, which replaces Apache Ant. It gives flexibility & extensibility in development and the studio updates don’t affect the output of your build. This unified build system helps to handle different build types & different app versions in a better way. It helps in managing multi APKs through splits, gives multi-dex support and enables dependency management for third-party libraries. mobile.semaphore-software.com

6. Improved UI Design Android Studio has a redesigned User Interface (UI), where its menu items and tools help in quick and smooth navigation. Its UI design is much faster, responsive and offers more customization options as compared to Eclipse, helping view Android layouts across various screen sizes and multiple languages including API versions. It also has a rich layout designer with a drag-and-drop UI. mobile.semaphore-software.com

7. Project Management Android Studio has introduced the concept of modules, where within your project you have various modules like the app you are building can be one module. If you have a library then it can be another module, Ad SDK that you are integrating can be the third one and so on. The benefit is that these modules can separately have their own Gradle build files with their own dependencies, thus making it easier to manage and organize your app projects and resources. mobile.semaphore-software.com

8. Unit Testing Android Studio helps to define unit testing in different classes, allowing you to launch them while developing apps. This ensures that you are aware about your bugs even before they occur during production. mobile.semaphore-software.com

9. Lint Tools Android Studio uses Lint tool to help check your Android source files for the chances of any bugs and suggest improvements in terms of security, performance, usability, accessibility and more. At the time of releasing your APKs, you can change your Grade files to include Lint and it will stop the release process in case of any threats. This thus helps to generate quality code. mobile.semaphore-software.com

10. Security Measures Android Studio has built-in support for ProGuard tool, ensuring security of your apps. It helps the developers to shrink & optimize code, by removing dead/unused code and renaming classes, fields & methods with complicated obscure names. This tool runs only when you develop your application in release mode, as it is difficult to reverse or back engineer the small size of .apk file. Android Studio also has self signing capabilities, for Android apps. There is a provision for digitally signing the Android application packages, meant for Android package manager for installing the release as well as updates for the application. This provision is there to validate your authority to the manager, ensuring that the app updates are from the same developer. mobile.semaphore-software.com
