# Google Android

> Android is a mobile operating system developed by Google. Its developer platform exposes a family of REST APIs for enterprise device management, Google Play app publishing and monetization, push messaging, game services, device provisioning, app integrity, and cloud testing. All APIs authenticate with Google OAuth 2.0 and follow Google's resource-oriented API design (AIP).
