C++ for android apps

I would like to create android apps using C++ in Visual Studio. What advantages and disadvantages would I have compared to programming in Java?

hinanawi C++ on android run "natively" more than java... Its more complicated works with it but if performances are needed, use its necessary

the only "disadvantage" is that c++ programs do not natively run on android, and java ones do. so you might have to appropriate some things

You have always need of a Java glue but you can implement all in C++... I want suggest you to use C++ ONLY if really needed because its not "simple" like on other OS. Anyway here you will find all informations https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/

Look into Qt , its a great all around framework and lets you make cross platform applications and even android apps in c++
