Android Instant Apps



This was something extra-ordinary. In Google I/O, they showed a proof of concept named Android Instant Apps. With this, a user can use apps without downloading them. A shocking thing, but a good technique used in this concept, the traditional app download route.

For example, you are shopping via eCommerce, and you reach on the URL of that website whose page is not properly optimized for mobile. At this time, Android Instant Apps quickly downloads only the most required elements for purchase, not more than that.

So via this concept, a person can use the app instantly without downloading and use it as per the requirements. So now, there is no need to download apps that are only required for some time.
