Java and Kotlin are official languages for Android development. Though Android apps can be written in other languages too. https://www.androidauthority.com/develop-android-apps-languages-learn-391008/ I think these threads will be useful: https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/823823/?ref=app https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/447092/?ref=app

I think kotlin is now taking over Android development from Java after Google gave the thumbs up for kotlin, in the same way swift took over iOS development from objective-c, kotlin is taking over android since I think it is fast, nimble and light weight.

Java, all the application logic in android is done in Java, so a good understanding of Java is important, you don't have to master all of java but at least be familiar with core concepts of java. You can begin by taking an introductory java for android course at edx. I hope you find this helpful .

Start Android development with Kotlin (modern, official language) and learn some Java basics since many projects still use it. Use XML for UI design and SQL/Room DB for data storage. Later, explore Flutter (Dart) or React Native (JS) for cross‑platform apps. Start coding in Android Studio.
