Android

Android is an operating system based on Linux produced by Google that targets smart, portable and/or embedded devices such as phones, tablets, smartwatches, televisions, or cars. Android was originally developed by a company called Android Inc., but Google then bought the company in July 2005, then made the Android SDK available in November 2007. One year later, the first version of Android was released in September 2008. Every major Android version since 1.5 until 10 has a codename based on different desserts, and they are all in alphabetical order. In January 2020, Microsoft released the first preview of their custom Android experience meant to run on the Surface Duo, build 2020.117.2.
