After that, it combines the digits to form the decimal number.***

## Why test on Galaxy Z Fold4?

The ultimate aim of building mobile apps is to expand the global user base. However, end-users are unlikely to use your app if it doesn’t satisfy their requirements. And no business would like customers to switch to a competitor due to a bad mobile app experience.

If we look at the stats below, Samsung takes the second spot, holding approximately 27.86% of the global mobile device market share. Thus, it is evident how crucial it is to test apps on Samsung devices running the latest and legacy Android versions.

Are your mobile apps ready for the latest Galaxy Z Fold4?

For your app to work seamlessly on foldable devices, it’s crucial to check whether it correctly functions for the features like app continuity to prevent data losses while folding and unfolding the device, quickly letting your app adapt to Galaxy flex mode, etc. Therefore, you need an effective solution to comprehensively test your app’s compatibility with the latest Samsung devices.

## How does LambdaTest help you test on Galaxy Z Fold4?

Regarding [mobile testing](https://www.lambdatest.com/learning-hub/mobile-testing?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=jan10_kj&utm_term=kj&utm_content=webpage), debugging on desktop browsers is relatively far easier than debugging on mobile devices. The process gets even more infuriating when you need to set up an in-house Android device lab for testing. Building an in-house [test infrastructure](https://www.lambdatest.com/learning-hub/test-infrastructure?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=jan10_kj&utm_term=kj&utm_content=webpage) can take a big bite out of your organization’s budget. Even if you buy devices and configure them in-house, how will you address all the OS updates?
