Action Bar is one of the most important design elements you can implement for your app's activity. It provides centralized UI features and enables your app to become familiar to users quickly by providing a consistent experience with other Android apps. The main features include:
- A dedicated display where the app is represented, and can indicate where the user is currently in the app.
- Users have easy access to important features (such as search).
- Provides view toggle navigation (via tab, or drop-down list).
This training session provides a quick guide to the basics of Action Bar. For more information about the various features of the action Bar, see Action Bar boot.
