Not too long ago, Google released the Android Jelly Bean raw source code for its Android Open Source Project. This makes it possible for developers to work on updates and releases for tablet and smartphone apps far more easily, and it also provides greater support and more features to the Jelly Bean operating system.

Developers should have a greater array of customization options, as well as the ability to add a greater number of features to their Jelly Bean applications, because its compatible devices and their binaries are already prepared to work with the source code.

The full, latest version of Jelly Bean is available for use; the first device to utilize the OS is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus HSPA+. This version is reported to have new features and faster, more efficient app updates, on top of being easier to use. It also offers resizable app widgets, improved speeds, better notifications, extended Android Beam Bluetooth capabilities, and more.

Following this release, Australia-based mobile app development company Smarter Apps announced that it would be bringing in a set of feature-rich products and services to its clients that are interested in developing for Jelly Bean.
