## What it is
The official Android SDK for the Parse Platform, providing access to Parse Server backends from Android apps. It offers data storage, user authentication, push notifications, and real-time queries via a Java/Kotlin API.

## Use cases
- connect an Android app to a Parse Server backend
- store and query objects from an Android app
- add user sign-up and login to an Android app
- send push notifications to Android devices
- subscribe to real-time data changes in an Android app

## When to choose
- you are building an Android app backed by Parse Server
- you want a ready-made BaaS client with auth, storage, and push out of the box
- you need offline data persistence synced with a Parse backend

## When to avoid
- your backend is not Parse Server
- you need an SDK for iOS, Flutter, or other non-Android platforms
- you want a generic REST client rather than Parse-specific APIs

## Facets
