Como o uso de Play Feature Delivery no Android pode ajudar na sustentabilidade digital

Abstract

With the increasing access to the internet via mobile devices among the less privileged classes in Brazil, digital sustainability becomes of growing importance. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the Play Feature Delivery technology on mobile data consumption on Android devices. A parametric t-test was applied to evaluate significant differences between the averages of data amounts spent in Megabytes when downloading two applications. The result corresponded to a t-value of approximately 65.55 and the rejection of the null hypothesis. This finding not only underscores the technical importance for Android developers but also highlights its relevance in showing an improvement in mobile data usage, especially in an era where the democratization of access to information is vital. The research reinforces the idea that society should adapt to digital resources, optimizing data usage. To reach these conclusions, two mobile applications focused on first aid guidelines were developed and analyzed. The main advantage observed was the reduction in mobile data consumption, validating the efficacy of Play Feature Delivery compared to conventional applications.
