Resumo: | Android devices show a wide variation in the display size and resolution. Unlike its main competitor, Apple, whose IOS is installed only in the devices produced by them - which ensures standardization in the displays and graphic interface - the Android system can be used by several different mobile device manufacturers that define their own standards, whether for tablets or cell phones. This directly impacts on the layout design of applications for the Android system, since it must consider and anticipate the diversity of display specs, aiming to deliver the best user experience. Responsive design seeks to answer such problems, applying techniques that allow the layout design to provide the user with the optimal experience of visualization, contact and interaction in handling a wide variety of different devices. Thus, this study focuses on understanding the design steps required to build an application for mobile devices running the Android operating system, in order to achieve the best response from the user through responsive design. To do so, this paper’s methodological basis is grounded on a descriptive case study, not only for the novel approach it allows to mobile applications and for the wide range and flexibility of analysis it provides, but mainly to describe the behavior and results achieved by the applications in displays with different specification. |

Ao contrário do principal concorrente, Apple, cujo sistema IOS é instalado apenas nos dispositivos produzidos pela marca, o que garante a padronização nas telas e interfaces, o sistema Android pode ser utilizado por vários fabricantes de dispositivos móveis diferentes, que definem formatos e padrões de tela para os seus dispositivos móveis, sejam tablet ou telefones celulares. Isto impacta diretamente no projeto de design das telas de um aplicativo para o sistema Android, uma vez que deve prever e antecipar esta diversidade de formatos, buscando ofertar a melhor experiência para o usuário. O design responsivo busca ofertar respostas a tais problemas, ofertando técnicas que possibilitam elaborar telas que ofereçam para o usuário uma excelente experiência de visualização, contato e interação em uma ampla variedade de dispositivos diferentes. Assim, este estudo foca em compreender as etapas de projeto necessárias para a construção de um aplicativo para dispositivos móveis com sistema operacional Android, de forma a obter a melhor resposta do usuário, através do design responsivo. Para tanto, busca sua base metodológica no estudo de caso descritivo, não somente pela novidade representada pelos aplicativos para dispositivos móveis e pela amplitude e flexibilidade na análise ofertada por tal instrumento, mas principalmente de forma a descrever o comportamento e os resultados gerados pelos aplicativos nas diferentes telas.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2020-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/2989710.5433/2236-2207.2020v11n2p15Projetica; v. 11 n. 2 (2020); 15-342236-2207reponame:Projética Revista Científica de Designinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/29897/27958Copyright (c) 2020 Projeticainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSteffen, César2021-08-26T18:11:41Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/29897Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/PUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/oai||projetica@uel.br2236-22072236-2207opendoar:2021-08-26T18:11:41Projética Revista Científica de Design - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false |
