    Modern and proven architectural patterns for android apps?

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 08:10 AM PDT

    I developed Android apps about 6-7 years ago, and I recently started looking into it again. I have learned some Kotlin, new view-elements and similar. Now I what to know how to structure an app in a modern but proven way. But I struggle to find good articles about stuff such as RxKotlin, MVVM and similar topics.

    Remember to implement account hold and restore in your app by november 1, 2020

    Posted: 14 Oct 2020 09:09 PM PDT

    If your Android app sells subscription products, then you will need to make sure these subscription features (account hold, restore, pause, and resubscribe) are supported. If your Android app does not sell subscription products, you will not need to worry about this upcoming change.

    If you have paid apps or in app purchase then you don't to make any changes.

    Benchmarking Gson vs Jackson vs Moshi 2020 | Eric Decanini

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 12:49 AM PDT

    I saw an app that shows the devtools on phones. However this app connects to an appspot website to do this. Is it possible to do the same thing by creating a local server for devtools so it can be used offline?

    Guidelines

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 07:56 AM PDT

    Currently working for a company I have come to be surprised that everyone's opinion in app development matters more than the developers.

    This is in regards to design, somehow the API engineers, QA team and CEO (none of whom are app developers) all have more of a say in how the app looks and behaves. So of course after a year you can all imagine how horrible it is going.

    No guidelines, no components, just everything in the "web" mind frame of design. It's disgusting!

    Looking for open source Kotlin apps to learn development

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 07:28 AM PDT

    I want to get started in developing apps for Android with Kotlin. I have some little experience with Android development with Java, but from what I hear Kotlin is going strong in this matter.

    I also have good knowledge and professional experience with programming in general. I thought that instead of watching tutorials or reading books, then dropping them some time later, I can look at some apps that are open source, so that I can try myself soon.

    What I am looking for are apps that have clean code and follow up to date patterns, while being something simple. Also if there is kind of a learning path where you would recommend several app in a certain sequence that would be perfect, in order not to stumble upon complex concepts at once.

    Appreciate your help, and looking forward to learning and being active here!

    Is it possible for Android apps to store app data in users' Google accounts so it is restored on-install on new devices?

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 06:55 AM PDT

    We're implementing a loginless system on our web, iOS, and Android app that allows the user to have a persistent identity without requiring any sign-up/sign-in flows whatsoever.

    A key part of loginless is relying on iOS and Android to permanently store our app's data in the user's iCloud / Google account so that the data is automatically restored for the user in each of the scenarios:

    • (i) Quitting and re-opening the app (accomplished with SharedPreferences in Android, UserDefaults in iOS)

    • (ii) Uninstalling and re-installing the app on the same device (accomplished with key/value backup in Android¹, Keychain + NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore in iOS)

    • (iii) Setting up a new device based on a backup of an old device (accomplished with key/value backup in Android¹, UserDefaults + Keychain + NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore in iOS)

    • (iv) Installing the app on a brand new device signed into the same iCloud / Google account that the user previously used the app with (accomplished with NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore in iOS)

    The only case we have remaining is figuring out how to accomplish (iv) for Android. Does key/value backup in Android restore the data in this case, even when the brand new device wasn't set up from a backup of an older device?

    We've discovered the existence of Cloud Firestore and AccountManager during our research, but it seems like the data in Cloud Firestore is keyed on an device basis so it wouldn't accomplish (iv), and it seems like AccountManager requires asking permission from the user to ask for their accounts via android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS, plus the whole design of loginless is intended not to ask the user for any personally identifiable information. Are we correct in these conclusions, or could Cloud Firestore be used to accomplish (iv)? Is there anything else we can use to accomplish (iv) in Android?

    ¹ We decided to use key/value backup instead of auto backup because the frequency of backups is greater than that of auto backups. See more information on the difference in Android's documentation.

    View not being inflated after exiting fragment and pressing the back button fast

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 06:18 AM PDT

    I have an app with a couple of fragments you can transition between. Now a big problem I have is that if I enter another fragment(using nav_graph), and immediately press the back button it will go into a blank screen. I checked it in more than one fragment.

    After further testing I found out that what happens is that when I use the naviagtion to navigate to another fragment, on pause gets called, and then onDestroyView, with about a second delay, and pressing the back button in that time will make it so the onDestoyView does not get called, meaning that onCreateView does not get called so the fragment does not inflate the xml view layout.(e.g tried setting the xml to just be a black screen with a button, still get a blank whitish screen). Any Idea how I can fix this? Maybe inflate the view in the onResume if it has not been inflated, or destroy the view in onPause or something?

    How to retrieve audio files from firebase storage into a recycler view in android studio?

    I came across FirebaseRecyclerAdapter to dynamically sync my recycler view with firebase storage, but not sure how to proceed. This is because i don't really have a model class, since the user first records, then the recording is stored in firebase storage ..anyone knows how to retrieve these recordings and load them into a recycler view ??

    In India what ad services are used mostly for advertising ones campaign?

    Posted: 15 Oct 2020 12:29 AM PDT

    I am 100% sure that the 1st will be admob but since admob is limiting the ads in apps and games, people have started using unity, chartboost and other ad services. Now the problem is that Most advertisers put their ad on google. So after admob, what services are used the most for advertisers in India to put ads? Let's say you are advertising your game in google and I am showing your ad through admob in my game. But if you are not using google then in what other service are you putting your ads on so that I can use that service on my game to show your ad? I hope I am not confusing anyone. This is specific to India by the way. If you have more info about your country then please do share, it will just help me optimize what service to use most in what country.

    Draw an interactive graph in Android

    Posted: 14 Oct 2020 08:35 PM PDT

    On Android - Is it possible to draw a graph with coloured vertices so that people can click on them and change the colours (or the numbers within the bubbles).

    Like this: https://algebrahut.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/fourcolorthm_page_05.jpg

    I imagine there might be a 3rd party library laying around somewhere, but I can't find any!

    Thanks for any help you can offer.
