Weekly "anything goes" thread! Posted: 06 Dec 2019 04:41 AM PST Here's your chance to talk about whatever! Although if you're thinking about getting feedback on an app, you should wait until tomorrow's App Feedback thread. Remember that while you can talk about any topic, being a jerk is still not allowed. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 06 Dec 2019 12:30 AM PST https://www.xda-developers.com/fx-file-explorer-removed-from-play-store-deceptive-advertising/ I take this article as my starting point to write about what I have learned about this violation. I hope that it will be useful to new developers and help them to have a few less problems. Add your direct and indirect experience in comments and correct me where I'm wrong.
EDIT_1 It is not very clear what you can do and what you cannot do about promoting your own application from another of your applications. From this link (https://play.google.com/intl/en-gb/about/developer-content-policy-print/) (search "Buttons or ads that promote your other") is not clear what is allowed. I can't find another official page dealing with this point. For this reason, I leave the original suggestion that is based on my experience and knowledge; let me know if you have a link that explains more and better this point. [link] [comments] | ||
What is happening with Google Play search Posted: 06 Dec 2019 04:58 AM PST In past few weeks most of my apps cannot be found via search on Google Play. Before they were top results now they are just gone. People can find them only via link. Even writing my developer name shows only about 10 of my apps where before they showed all (around 100). Why this is happening? No indexing? Even when I click on my developer name and click on all apps they don't show all. It shows most of them but still a few are left out. Very strange!

Posted: 06 Dec 2019 07:08 AM PST I saw that my app on an android 9 Go had white borders so I prepared adaptive icons for it. Today I got a new testing phone, a Samsung A40, thinking I would see the adaptive icons properly in action, and they were nowhere to be found. Are adaptive icons actually used? Do you guys use them?

File showing on Android device not showing on PC Posted: 06 Dec 2019 06:04 AM PST I'm developing an Android application where some data is exported in a json file written in the Download folder. My objective is to get this file from a computer (when the device is USB connected). When my json file is on the device, it's not showing on the computer. So I tested some cases manually and I don't understand what's happening. When I create a test.json file on the device from the computer file explorer menu, I can see it on the device. If I make a copy of this file on the device, I can't rename it and it's not showing on the computer. I tried to create a folder on the device and put the copied file in it. The folder is present on the computer but it's empty. If I make the same manipulations with a txt file, all the files are visible on the computer file explorer. It looks like I can't see on the computer the json files I created on the Android device (I'm using Android 7). How to see all of the Android device files on the computer file explorer when the device is USB connected? I'm asking here because I can't find an answer and I'm totally blocked in my work. Please tell me where I can seek help if this isn't the right subreddit. I was wondering maybe some of you encountered the same problem and know what to do in this situation. [link] [comments] | ||
How can we create a View's coroutinesScope? Posted: 05 Dec 2019 08:14 PM PST I have a custom view where I intent to use coroutines. How do I approach creating a coroutineScope for the View's lifecycle that should handle cancellation. I couldn't find any documentation regarding this. Any help is appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||

Does android have stable kernel interface for proprietary drivers? Posted: 05 Dec 2019 10:17 PM PST Ever since the project Treble was released, vendor implementation has been separated from android framework. The only way to make android kernel interact with vendor drivers is if android kernel has support for in-kernel Application Binary Interface (ABI). I've found some references on how Google monitors in-kernel ABI changes but they are not referring to its implementation. Linux kernel don't use stable kernel interface for good reasons but unlike android kernel, Linux kernel has in-kernel open source modules. How android provides kernel interface for driver support?

Character Avatar App: How To Make? Posted: 05 Dec 2019 10:17 PM PST I want to try and make the same type of app that Bookwalker made with their "Talk To Megumin" app. The app is where you can interact and talk with animated character. You can tap on them to trigger responses and each individual body part is animated as well. I come from a background of enterprise/consumer apps. However, I assume that this would require more of an OpenGL/rendering type app/game. I am trying to figure out where to start but none of the sample codes I can find on Github really addresses any of these needs. If anyone could help me start in the right direction, that would be much appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 05 Dec 2019 10:06 PM PST I had a hard time figuring out how to slightly move a logo icon to the left on an actionbar, because the android developer guide was so vague, it took hours of research and egg hunting. Are there any books out there that can teach me basics and fundamentals pretty well? And I can use as a better reference? [link] [comments] | ||

Are google API's less developer-friendly in 2019 than in 2005? Posted: 05 Dec 2019 08:43 PM PST In 2005, new google API's like maps were completely free to developers. We could write freeware for them without an account and a pricing plan... Just pick up notepad, write a program, that's it. These days, the new google API's require a few hours of study regarding pricing plan options, API backends, accounts, and we can't make freeware for the user ecosystem, to try out new ideas... We also have cloud rental costs to pass on to app instances, so we have to make rental apps, which is another barrier. Am I being negative and uninformed? Doesn't it make more sense for google to give a new API technology away for free 10 years to leverage community creativity for their platforms? [link] [comments] | ||

What does red/green bar indicate, in store listing A/B testing? Posted: 05 Dec 2019 06:27 PM PST I have been using store listing A/B testing quite intensively, to figure out the most optimum screenshots. https://i.imgur.com/KMwXwnD.png Does anyone have any idea what does the horizontal red/ green bar mean? For instance, under "black font" variation, there are -10.9% red and 11.8% green. Do you have idea, how I should interpret those data? Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
