Abstract
In the scenario of twenty-first century, education is the centre of living unlike other basic needs. The overall literacy rate of our country is 74.04% which has been raised by 9.21% as compared to 2001, and present youth literacy rate is 90.2%; the Android applications are playing a very important role in framing various learning tools for undergraduate courses. The application developed exclusively in Android has features of searching and sorting techniques. This application has contents which can be used for computer students of high school, UG courses like bachelors of computer applications, bachelors of engineering and bachelors of technology. The paper has a survey over various case studies inclusive of different applications which were developed to enhance the learning among students at the university. Forty-three responses have been recorded taking various aspects in view. It also enables readers to understand the change in the trend of education in the past decade.
