TOP REVIEWS FROM PROGRAMMING MOBILE APPLICATIONS FOR ANDROID HANDHELD SYSTEMS: PART 1
by NSJun 26, 2018
Very well explained, though content could've been updated (considering code versions to keep up with new versions of Android where Permissions are required to be accepted during running the app).

This course was great for me. I was looking for a refresher course since I had some Android experience, but due to different career path I have not used in about 4 years. It was good for me.
