Android is an operating system or (OS) that can be found on a range
of devices today and is growing in popularity fast.
Android is a partnership between Google and Android Inc,

manufacturers is because it’s ‘open source’ software
and therefore essentially free for manufactures such
as Samsung to use.
This is unlike a ‘closed source’ operating system such as Apples IOS.
