Abstract: Endowing Android applications with the capability of adapting to users’ personalized usage habits is able to improve their user experience.Aiming at this objective,this paper proposed a usage habit-oriented self-adaptive method for Android applications.Based on the conventional self-adaptive mechanism,this method takes the usage habits as the context factor.Meanwhile,the adaptation implementation of the method focuses on the ma-nagement of the transition sequence of the activities in an application.The paper further concluded a set of designing requirements in order to support developers to construct this kind of applications.In addition,two usage scenarios are illustrated to explain the implementation details towards the designing requirements in the application development phase.

Key words: User habit,Self-adaptive,Android application,Personalization
