Google instant apps are not a new concept in the Android ecosystem.

https://preview.redd.it/w8a2xjgr51o71.png?width=1920&amp;format=png&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=05e14e2526cccf346ee51707ec44f14c7793396f

The giant introduced the technology in 2015. Six years later, Android instant apps have gained popularity. However, many businesses still haven’t discovered the real power of such solutions and the benefits they can get.

Instant apps in Android are a type of native apps that don’t require installations to run. They combine the power of native applications and the accessibility of web apps.

At the first glance, instant applications look like traditional native applications. They are very different when it comes to their technical part.

Instant applications are created by turning some functionality of a native app into a standalone module. The rest of the application’s features are not available to users. They would need to download and install the whole native app to access it. As soon as users close an instant app, it disappears from their mobile device.

Users can access an instant app by following a URL. When Google Play receives a request for a URL, it looks up for an instant app that matches it. After it identifies such an app, Google Play sends the necessary code file to the user’s mobile device. The device automatically opens the file and runs the app. As soon as the user closes the app, it’s deleted from the smartphone.

Instant applications are often confused with another innovative technology – progressive web applications.

PWAs were also introduced by Google and combine features of native apps and web solutions. You can use them offline without the need to download the app.

### ANDROID INSTANT APPS EXAMPLES

There are a number of Android instant apps examples. You might have even used some of them in the past without suspecting that they have an instant app version. If you haven’t, you can check them out to see how the technology works in real life:

· **NOS.nl –** the leading news and sports company in the Netherlands uses Google Play Instant to generate more app installations.

· **Vimeo** – American video hosting and sharing platform managed to increase session duration by 130% with instant applications.

· **Dotloop** – a leading transaction platform increased engagement with Google instant apps by 62%.

· **Strike Force** – a game by Marvel that uses instant apps to increase the number of app installations.

· **Evino** – an eCommerce application that attracts new customers with an instant app.

As you can see, instant app examples are numerous and can benefit companies from different business spheres. Jump to the next chapter of the article to learn how such solutions can benefit your business.

## HOW TO CREATE AN INSTANT APP FOR ANDROID

Now that we successfully explored the benefits of instant apps, let’s find out how to create an instant app for Android from a technical point of view.

Do you already have a mobile application? You can turn it into an instant app in no time.

If you don’t have one, include this task in the list of all the tasks for your development team. 

Instant app development is not difficult since developers don’t need to create a new codebase. They can use the existing code, API and project.

The image below demonstrates the key steps needed to create Android instant apps.

Let’s review each of them in more detail.

### 1. SDK INSTALLATION &amp; ENVIRONMENT SETTING

The first step of instant app development comes down to accessing the Google Play Instant Development SDK. You can use this Android instant apps development SDK with Android Studio 6.0 and higher and an Android emulator that runs on Android 6.0 or higher. After you have set up an environment, you can move on to the next step.

### 2. CODE ADDITION TO A FEATURE MODULE

At this step, you will need to move the app’s code to the feature module. This action will create a minimal app module.

### 3. MODULE BUILDING

At this stage, you need to know which functionality you want your instant app to have. After you decide on the features, you will need to build the APK module. This action will turn the app’s functionality into a smearable feature module.

### 4. INSTANT APP MODULE CREATION

Use a single feature APK to create an instant app module. At this step, you will turn the app’s functionality into one that can be accessed as an instant application.

### 5. APP LINKS DEFINING

At the final stage of instant apps development, you need to create a relationship between a website and the app. Such a link will set up the instant app runtime. Users will use the URLs to launch your instant application on their mobile devices.

Now you know how to create an instant app for Android. As you can see, you need to have a sufficient level of technical knowledge to turn a native app into an instant one.

A minimum viable product (MVP) is the development approach in which a new product is developed with the number of features that are sufficient for early users. The final set of more advanced features is only designed and developed after receiving and analyzing feedback from the product’s first users. [MVP software development](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-does-mvp-mean-why-do-you-need-addevice/?trackingId=csjpFQkiyz8d3q7ZVCWObg%3D%3D) allows for Agile development to get a product to end-users faster. You don’t need to dedicate a lot of time developing a full-fledged product and investing a lot of money into its creation. The main idea is getting a product to the market faster and safely testing your idea without risking all your money.

**WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN MVP AND A PROTOTYPE?**

Minimum viable product development and prototype creation are often confused. Let’s clear the air when it comes to these two notions.

A prototype and MVP are both early versions of a product. However, there are several differences setting them apart.

A prototype is something that you come up with when you have an app idea.

In its nutshell, a prototype is a theory behind a product that is formed into something tangible. It might be as simple as a sketch or something more interactive and functional like digital prototypes and mockups. The main idea of a prototype is to help communicate with design and engineering teams.

Prototyping offers various designs and solutions for a single MVP soon to be finalized for a new product. Unlike MVPs, prototypes are not always supposed to become a final product. Before creating an MVP, you might create several prototypes.

**WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MVP SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT**

Minimum viable product development is associated with several benefits, with the main being safe ideas testing with small budgets and reduced risks.

*Let’s review some of the critical benefits of MVP app development.*

&amp;#x200B;

* **Testing product ideas** – no matter how      interesting your idea might sound, you need to do thorough market      research. After you identify the main idea behind your product, you can      start MVP software development and test an idea further by releasing a      minimum viable product to gather hands-on feedback from the target      audience.
* **Faster product      release** – MVP app development shortens the time to create      a solution and release it to the market.
* **Cost-efficiency** – instead of going all the way out and investing all the money into      developing a full-fledged product, you can create an MVP and continue      investing in its further development gradually. Investments are made only      when they are needed; thus, you minimize risks and reduced costs.
* **Space for      evolution** – minimum viable product development is gradual.      With further versions, you improve the core components of your product and      can adopt innovations painlessly.
* **Reduced      engineering hours** – thanks to a gradual      process, MVP software development minimizes the volume of reworks and      features rebuilding. You won’t wake up one morning understanding that      development went in the wrong direction and you need to rebuild many      components and features.
* **Product launch      with minimum resources** – MVP software      development makes it possible to create a product without hiring a huge      development team. Reduced resources lead to reduced spending and better      cost-efficiency.
* **Get the product to      early customers ASAP** – in just a few      months, you can deliver a product to the market and get feedback from      early users. The target audience has a direct influence on the direction      for the product to follow.

**KEY TYPES OF MVPS**

There are different approaches to minimum viable product development that you can use for your project. Before moving to the development stage, make sure that you have a clear understanding of all the types and which will benefit your project the most.

**1. Single-feature mvp**

This is not the most popular type of MVP software development. The main difficulty hides in finding the single feature that is key for your target users. After successfully identifying it, you can launch an app with a single feature, gather feedback, and move on with the software development process.

**2. Piecemeal mvp**

This is quite a popular MVP app development model among the startups which helps to speed up the development process thanks to the reuse of various ready-to-use elements.The main disadvantage of this approach is the need to sacrifice the uniqueness of your product to achieve the needed development speed and efficiency. At the same time, it’s a good model if you need to deliver the product to the market under tight deadlines.

**3. Landing page mvp**

This model is ideal if you don’t have much money and need to test an idea. The model entails creating a single web page optimized for search results and providing essential information about your product, advantages, value, etc.

By creating a landing page, you can strike interest among potential users, receive their feedback, collect a potential user base, and spread the word about the upcoming product.

**4. Wizard of oz mvp**

This model has a few other names, such as Flintstone MVP or Manual-first MVP. This model of MVP software development implies that for the outside world, your product seems completely functional. In reality, all back-office tasks are operated manually by humans. For example, your users or clients might not even realize that there are only humans in customer support.

**5. Product designs**

This model entails creating simple sketches or complex mockups that show the user’s journey in more detail.

Sketches, usually created in free-hand format, are a great solution to present your idea to investors or to start a crowdfunding process.

**6. Demo videos**

A demo video is a great way to demonstrate your product. The idea behind it is to gather feedback from the audience. Such videos can be used to test your concept among target end-users or present it to potential investors to raise investments.

**HOW TO START MVP SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT: KEY STEPS**

The process of minimum viable product development consists of 7 main stages with multiple steps. This part of the article presents a step-by-step process of MVP app development and describes each stage with all details.

**1. Come up with an app idea**

If you don’t know where to start, try coming up with an app idea. Usually, at this stage, you already know what solution you want to create.

The best ideas come out of the blue, right?

Creating an app solely to make money might not be the best solution. You need to live and breathe your idea. The most popular solutions and startups are created with an app idea that keeps creators up at night.

**2. Validate the app idea**

Your idea might seem to be the next Facebook or Netflix. In reality, you might be creating something that no one needs. At this stage, you need to validate your app idea. Make comprehensive market research, identify your potential competitors and check whether there is a need for such an app or not.

**3. Identify the target audience**

After you’ve successfully validated an app idea and made sure that the market needs your solution, it’s time to define your target audience. You need to understand who will use your application and learn about the target audience as much as possible. Make a market research and make user profiles, specifying even the smallest details, like their gender, age, occupation, etc.

**4. Decide on the set of features**

Now that you know your audience and their pain points, it’s time to move on to the next step of MVP software development – defining the features that will form your MVP. At this stage, the main goal is expanding your app idea into the product specifications.

**5. Mvp software development &amp; QA**

At this stage, the development of an MVP happens. Time is a crucial factor at this stage. The faster you develop an MVP and deliver it to the market, the better. Otherwise, the situation on the market might change along with the needs of users, and you will end up with a product that no one needs.

**6. Mvp testing**

Now that your app is ready, it’s time to release it to the market and test it with a wide audience. You can get in touch with your target audience and ask for feedback.

MVP development is a popular approach to software development. The popularity of MVP comes from the offered benefits, such as cost efficiency, faster product delivery to the market, gradual and consecutive delivery of new features.
