UIImage equivalent on Android

Question

Is there something equivalent to the UIImage iOS class in Android? I need an object that can take in a byte array and store it as an image in memory so I can use it later.

Gotta be [ImageView](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ImageView.html), right? [setImageBitMap](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ImageView.html#setImageBitmap(android.graphics.Bitmap)) — Robert Harvey, May 13 '13 at 17:33

You can convert bitmap to byte array and store where you want. Use like that

Bitmap bmp = intent.getExtras().get("data");

ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, stream);

byte[] byteArray = stream.toByteArray();

I found a different article that answers my question:

How to convert byte array to Bitmap

I can use the Bitmap object and create them using BitmapFactory.
