Samsung is hosting their first Developers Conference this week and
the theme just might be for developers to build apps that are exclusive
to their devices. Samsung already knows the key to success: Build user
friendly devices and an ecosystem. In order to build an ecosystem, you
need exclusive content and that is exactly what Samsung wants from
developers. It won’t be easy because if developers take the time to
build an Android app, why make it only available to Samsung? Actually
there is simple solution and that’s money. Samsung has lots of cash to
throw at developers that want to be part of the program.
Samsung has already shown a little success with achieving this based on the Twitter app. Twitter made a version of their app exclusive to the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition. It’s the only tablet that is works on and the app also takes advantage of the built-in S Pen features. Will more developers be excited this week to do the same? I’m pretty sure if Samsung throws them some money, they will be just giddy.
