    Is a donate button using IAP system ok in 2020?

    Posted: 01 Apr 2020 08:47 AM PDT

    Ive seen a few discussions about this over the years here via searching. I'm wondering what the current situation is from people who have recent experiences.

    I didnt find anything in the TOS forbidding this, but its Google, so best to ask people what they are actually doing.

    Our game is free.

    We have a donate $1 button if people feel like it.

    It uses Googles IAP system.

    Is this ok in 2020? Will our game be taken down?

    Its really not an important feature to us, if its a risk I will remove it np.

    Thanks!!

    For that i've made a floating button that draws over all apps.

    The issue im facing is that the button isn't clickable, and when i set a listener it crashes.

    Heres the code.. thanks for help.

    Social network about spreading diseases

    Posted: 01 Apr 2020 10:26 AM PDT

    Since we have the COVID-19 and I have plenty of time, I thought of using the spare time for something good and maybe giving a shot an Android application, that would help analyze and track diseases through a network. The network would be basically tracking who meets with whom, with the possibility of either GPS, NFC or manual input. The point of that would be to inform others who met with an infected person to be notified and set a priority equal to meeting with the infected person. Secondary functionality would be analyzing sickness by its symptoms and possible human discussion with a doctor. Do you think it's possible to create this kind of application without starting publicity? I appreciate any opinions or advices about the subject.

    Getting up to speed after a break from Android Dev

    Posted: 01 Apr 2020 10:25 AM PDT

    Hi devs!

    I cut my teeth and comfortably had a role as an Android Developer at a previous job, but I left mid/late 2018 and haven't developed for Android since. I miss it and it's a role I'd like to have again. What did I miss? And am I stupid to think I'll be hired after this break from it?

    Where I left off was: Pull out drawers were less cool and bottom bars were the new thing and Android phones could have notches too. I was writing apps almost entirely in Kotlin by that point (which is awesome). I was around for the big shift to Architecture Components, I spent a lot of time looking at the blueprints and MVVM, MVP, Clean Architecture, Rx and livedata and wondering what architecture to use.

    What have I missed since then? I see a lot about Jetpack and I'm sure lots of the architecture patterns and components have changed. What else should I refresh or learn?

    I welcome any generally well informed info on how you're building your apps too and any other tips.

    Thanks!

    Library for managing files and storage

    Posted: 01 Apr 2020 07:12 AM PDT

    Scoped Storage? Back in the day, all we needed was just the right path string and it used to work. All beautiful.

    Unfortunate changes related to Storage in Android 10 and then going a little easy on devs in Android 11 sounds foolish to me. It's all messed up.

    All I want to do is read and save files on "/sdcard/MyApporSomething/". Do you guys have any library to easily work with files on all android versions or do I need to get my hands dirty? Thanks :)

    Can BOM (bill of materials) be used in Gradle build script classpath dependencies?

    Posted: 01 Apr 2020 02:37 AM PDT

    Asking because Firebase BOM includes version for Gradle plugin com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.0.0-beta03, which is added to classpath of top-level build script. BOM usage example only tells to add BOM to module's build.gradle via implementation platform.

    So the question is, can the version from BOM be propagated to buildscript classpath? I tried adding BOM line to classpath to no avail.
