Course Overview
Improve your career options by learning Android app Development. Master Android Studio and build your first app today
There’s no getting around it.
Android accounts for 81.7% of all smartphones sold, but not all come packed with the very latest Android Nougat.
That won’t worry you because after completing this course, the apps you build will perform brilliantly on Android Nougat or any older Android operating system.
Now that’s something most courses don’t teach you!
So, you want to be an Android 7 Nougat programmer? Or you are interested in Android 8 Oreo?
Well, I’m Tim Buchalka, one of your instructors, and I’ve designed the Android 7 Nougat App and Android 8 Orea Masterclass just for you! Yes one, course covering both version!
Choosing a course that’s perfect for you can be damn hard. You need Instructors:
· Who are passionate about what they do.
· Keep their courses continually updated.
· And most important, provide outstanding support and follow up to your questions.
That’s what I do. And that’s the reason why I made it into the Top 10 List of Outstanding Instructors in the 2015 Udemy Instructor Awards.
Know that you’re exactly in the right place to MASTER Android 7 Nougat app programming as well as Android 8 Oreo!
Yes, we are in the process right now of updating the entire course to Android Oreo now it has been released by Google!
In this course, you will discover the power of Android app development, and obtain the skills to dramatically increase your career prospects as a software developer. You’ll also have a head start over other developers using obsolete tools and earlier versions of Android.
Android is continually being updated, so OLD versions of the operating systems will have features from the latest version. It's called AppCompat, which is a set of support libraries used to make apps developed with newer versions, work with older versions.
But it only works if the developer codes it a right way. It doesn’t just happen by default. The way I teach you in this Masterclass course is the right way!
With my course, you get the best of both worlds. You’re taught to write code for the latest version of Android Nougat with a strong focus on AppCompat. That way, the apps you build will also support older versions of Android.
Most Android courses just focus on teaching app development for the current Nougat version. What that means is you’re only taught to make apps for the latest version of Android, and that alienates a huge user base.
With my course, that’s not the case. Your skill level is maximized so your app reaches more users, which means more downloads, which means more money.
Starting is easy because no previous programming experience is needed. NONE! If you do have it, great. Or maybe you just want to brush up on your Android development skills, and that’s fantastic too.
The course is presented using a combination of video, slides and diagrams, all designed to teach you everything you need to know.
This is what you’ll learn in the course:
· Develop apps for the very latest version of Android 7 Nougat that also work on older Android devices running older versions of the Android operating system.
· Download, install and configure the necessary (free) software.
· Create your first app.
· Build a range of apps demonstrating key aspects of the Android framework.
· Test your apps on emulators or a real Android phone or tablet.
· You’ll learn Java programming because Android app development requires knowledge of Java. Included are Java tutorial videos that will get you up to speed fast.
· Ensure your apps work with current and older Android versions on phones and tablets.
· Use Android studio 2.3, the newest version of Google's premier Android tool.
· Learn how to use databases, web services, and even get your apps to speak!
· Understand the all new Constraint layout, for "drag and drop" screen creation.
· Use powerful libraries of code to play videos, download website data, manipulate images, and a whole lot more!
To reinforce what you’ve learnt during the course, there are numerous challenges designed to help you understand each concept being taught. You’re also shown the solution to the challenge so you know you’re always on the right track.
The course is continually updated and enhanced, and fully supports Android Nougat as it evolves. New content is added each week, guaranteeing what you’re learning is relevant for you today and will never be obsolete.
With many courses, it’s just set and forget. But not with mine! I’ve got a PROVEN track record of continually updating and adding new content. An example is my Java Masterclass course which now has 65 hours of content and counting, and benefited a whopping 80,000 students.
And if you have any doubts about the course, be blown away by the glowing reviews left by students on this page.
Your instructors are me and Jean-Paul Roberts. Between us we have a collective 60 years of commercial software development experience, meaning you’re learning the right way to program to maximize your future development potential.
Here’s what’s important. There’re a lot of people out there teaching Android Nougat who are not developers. We’re developers with many years’ experience with the Android platform, who also teach Android Nougat.
Importantly, our courses teach students the real-life skills needed to get those in-demand jobs or further your programming skills.
Take this course in confidence today knowing you have just found the BEST Android 7 Nougat/Android 8 Oreo course on Udemy! Don't delay. Every minute you’re not learning Android 7 is a missed opportunity for that PERFECT high paying job.

Course is easy to follow. Tim does a great job of stepping you through the code you will need to develop applications on android. My advise is take Tim's Complete Java Course and this course will be put you on the right track.

Only about 50 lectures in so far, but I feel I'm learning a fair bit. My one negative would be that there's no "apply what you've learned" sections, at least not so far. In another course I was taking, at the end of a chapter, the instructor would give you instructions on an application to build, based on what you've just learned in the chapter, and then you'd be expected to pause the video and build it on your own. Then, after you're done, you could continue and compare your application against how the instructor did it. That's one thing that's most definitely missing from this course. Following along is great, but you really don't get a chance to see if you're actually retaining any of the knowledge you've just learned. Other than that, the instructor seems very knowledgeable, and very excited about the content. I have no doubt I'll learn enough about Android development with this course, I just think it would be that much more useful with an "apply what you learned" section at the end of the chapters.

Comprehensive course and I like it but I wish there is more representation on what we are we actually coding.. Sometimes I feel like we are just writing lines and lines of code without presenting what this code does in app.

Probably the best Android course you'll find on the net. Nothing is perfect - yet - but this is certainly getting close. TLDR: Buy this great course now. Pros - 1) up to date content and getting better all the time. Unlike other Udemy instructors, Tim maintains the lectures so they're current. 2) You simply won't find a more conscientious instructor on this site. Period. His attention to student questions is excellent. 3) the breadth of subjects and topics Tim covers is unequaled; you won't find more information in any other course. Cons - (minor) 1) Some of the fonts got a little tough to read in a few spots, but they're increasing the resolution and that should eventually go away as videos are re-recorded and/or updated. 2) Some topics could use more in-depth descriptions and/or discussions. There's so much to learn here and sometimes more information is required to complete one's understanding. You can ask questions and look on the web for more help, but I've found I do need additional clarification sometimes.
