How do I make sure that a freelancer knows how to use Android Studio?
Ask the freelancer about their past projects. They should have experience with Android apps. Check if they know how to use Android Studio tools like the code editor and emulator.
What deliverables should I expect from an Android Studio project?
You should get the app's source code, a working application, and any necessary documentation. The freelancer might also provide a user manual. It's important to agree on these before starting the project.
How can I tell if a freelancer is good at using Android Emulator?
Ask if they have tested apps with the Android Emulator before. The emulator is used for checking how apps work on different devices. Make sure they can show you examples of how they've used it.
What is the best way to set a timeline for the project?
Talk to the freelancer about how long each part of the project will take. It's important to have clear milestones. Make sure both you and the freelancer agree on the timeline before beginning.
Should I ask for a prototype first?
Yes, a prototype can help you understand what the final app will look like. It allows you to give feedback early. This can save time and help avoid changes later.
What's the right way to discuss app updates with the freelancer?
Be clear on what needs updating and why. Tell the freelancer if updates are about fixing bugs or adding new features. Make sure this is part of your agreement.
What documentation is important for my Android app project?

How can we start the project smoothly?
Share your app idea and goals clearly with the freelancer. Make sure to discuss all the important parts like deliverables and timelines. This will help everyone work together well from the beginning.
