Android is ruling the mobile market as the #1 mobile operating system for the past few years. Although there are many other
popular Smartphone OS like
iOS from Apple
and Windows from Microsoft, Android still didn't lose its charm. The
main reason for this is the unlimited availability of useful Android
applications in the Play Store. You'll find at least a dozen apps for
every use on the Google Play Store and most of them are FREE to download
& install.
But, there is one problem which many mobile users faces - Low internet
bandwidth or speed. Most of the Smartphone users are not having the 3G
connectivity on their mobiles and even if some people have the 3G plan,
they're having the limited bandwidth. So, it has become a big problem
for such users to download Android apps on their mobile phone. However,
there is a solution to this problem.
