| Weekly "anything goes" thread! Posted: 04 Dec 2020 04:40 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] | ||
| PSA: Android Gradle Plugin 7.0 will require Java 11 Posted: 04 Dec 2020 03:08 AM PST If you are using Java 8 to compile your app, starting from Android Gradle Plugin 7.0 (the next one after 4.2) Java 11 will be required. This change will make effect in Android Studio 2020.3.1 Arctic Fox (currently in Canary and the next one after 4.2).
If you have pipelines running in Java 8, maybe it is a good idea to start migrating it to Java 11 now so the transition can be smoother.

| Copy from phone to PC's clipboard Posted: 04 Dec 2020 04:35 AM PST Is there already a simple way to copy a file from my smartphone to the clipboard of my PC? Lets say I want to include a picture of my dog in a text document on my PC. I would do the following:
This is very inefficient. I could avoid step 2-5 if the "sharing" would include a "Copy to my PC's clipboard". So I would just take a picture, press this button, go to my PC and press CTRL + V. Question: Does such a feature already exist? [link] [comments] | ||

| Deeplink from outlook opens copy of app in outlook Posted: 04 Dec 2020 01:49 AM PST Hey. So I have an app that uses deeplinking but when I press a link in the outlook app it seems like a copy of the app is opened inside of outlook. I can tell because if I press square at the bottom of the screen to see all open apps I see the outlook icon above the app. I haven´t seen this behaviour in any other apps and this brings unwanted behaviours. Does anyone know what I can to do make sure that my app is actually opened as it´s own instance on my phone? Thanks These are the intent filters I use [link] [comments] | ||
| Trying to take user location ever 20mins Posted: 04 Dec 2020 07:04 AM PST This application will be used by the employees so the employer can see where the employee is while they are punched in only. The function is needed to work when application is killed and also when the phone is idle/doze mode. I tried to use AlarmManager but when I tried to take the location it didn't work. I tried sticky Service in the notificatoion but the user can kill the service. I tried JobManager but it only works when the phone is in use or with large gaps like 8hrs. I tried the new WorkManager it doesn't work when the phone is doze mode, similar to the job manager has gaps of 8hrs. [link] [comments] | ||

| Accessing computer webcam from an Android App via USB connection Posted: 04 Dec 2020 03:25 AM PST Is there a way to create an app that displays what the computer webcam sees when the phone is connected via USB to the computer? [link] [comments] | ||
| Migrate from APK to App Bundle concerns Posted: 03 Dec 2020 06:52 PM PST Hi, seem like next year, we are "forced" to migrate to App Bundle format. I have a few concerns. 1) We have place some resource in drawable-xxxhdpi (highest resolution) , but didn't place the resource in drawable-xhdpi (lower resolution), will it be an issue? As, in APK, if the a low resolution device unable to find the resource in "drawable-xhdpi", it will fall back to "drawable-xxxhdpi", wondering is App Bundle able to handle such? 2) We have some string resource in "values", but the string resource is being missed out from "values-es", will it be an issue? As, in APK, if the Spanish app unable to find the string resource in "values-es", it will fall back to "values", wondering is App Bundle able to handle such? So far, is the any issue you have faced, during such APK to App Bundle migration? If yes, would you mind to share with us? Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||

| Anyone built a pc for gaming and android development? Posted: 04 Dec 2020 03:43 AM PST I need a new computer and thinking about building one for android development and some gaming. My priority is android. Any recommendation on CPU/GPU combo? Is the Ryzen 5 3600 or i7-9700 a good start or overkill for android work? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 Dec 2020 01:34 PM PST Hello, Has anyone used Repeato instead of Espresso for their app integration tests? Looks kind of cool. Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
| Google Play rejection - Hi-res icon Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:00 PM PST Hello, I need some help. My latest update on the Google Play Store got rejected for violating GP impersonation policy. They complain about my Icon. The icon however has stayed the same through 5+ updates over the last 6 months. And it's my original design. I've tried to appeal the case, but they're not exactly fast to answer. Does anyone know a way around this issue, or has similar experiences? Thank you in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
| Increased review times this week? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 05:39 PM PST My typical release flow is to submit an alpha build and then promote to production after it's reviewed. The initial review usually takes between 6-18 hours and promotion takes about 20 minutes. This Tuesday I had an approved alpha build ready to release and promote for a publicized update. Now I'm at over 48 hours later and my promotion has not been accepted. This is really frustrating and embarrassing given that the update went out smoothly on iOS. Has any noticed increased review times this week or know of any recourse I can take? [link] [comments] |
