Question 1 of 30

What are the earliest and latest versions of Android you have worked with?

"I began working in the Android operating systems as early as 2008 with version 1.0, which didn't have a code name. I continued working on versions 2 through 11, which is the latest evolution of the Android operating system. Nicknames for Android such as Gingerbread, Honeycomb, and Jelly Bean were typical for the early versions. However, the nicknames were dropped effective with Android 10.0 released in 2019. Each subsequent version of the Android OS added additional features making the operating system more effective and easier to work with."
