Most "Android + AI" books either assume you already know Kotlin or drown you in theory you'll never ship. This one does the opposite.
Android Programming with AI for Beginners takes absolute beginners from a blank Android Studio project to real, working apps that see, reason, and respond-using Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, on-device Gemini Nano, ML Kit, and hybrid cloud fallback. You will build a smart document scanner, an AI expense tracker that reads receipts, and a full personal assistant that combines vision, chat, and memory.
By the end you won't just understand the concepts-you'll own three complete, production-minded apps you can actually run, extend, and publish. Every chapter is practical, every feature is coded end-to-end, and every AI call is designed to prefer private on-device processing before touching the cloud.
What sets this book apart is its strict zero-to-hero path: no prior Android experience required, modern 2026 tooling throughout, and a relentless focus on shipping features instead of reading about them.
