    Do you build apps for your own use?

    Posted: 12 Mar 2021 08:42 PM PST

    Just like a woodworker spends a lot of time making tools of the trade - jigs, miters, brackets, and so on - so I have always found as a software developer that you often build tools for your own use. I'm a Linux developer and also build tools or apps for my own work and convenience. I'm thinking of learning a bit about mobile app development, but I haven't seen much talk about building apps for your own use this way. Is it a normal practice? What sort of apps have you made just for yourself?

    What Ad Mediation Partner do you use?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 01:07 AM PST

    Hello! I use Facebook Audience Network ads to monetize my apps, but just now I received an email that says that FAN will be only available as mediated ads by the end of September and the transition must be done by the end of May 2021.

    The mediation platforms are several, but the only I know is AdMob (which I ve been banned for invalid traffic, stupid bots!). Do you use any different platform to mediate FAN than AdMob? If yes what is it?

    Tell your experience :D

    Google Play search results

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 07:33 AM PST

    Hi all, I have recently developed my first app and have now got it published on play store. That's fine and I can access and get my users to download via the direct link.

    However when I search the play store as many might to find my app, no matter my search terms it does not show in the search results.

    The app was only published yesterday, does it take time to appear in search? depend on downloads? ratings?

    I could understand these effecting how high it ranks but it's a specific name and it's not in the results at all.

    Any help appriciated.

    How to create animated transitions with MaterialContainerTransform

    cant update version in the google play developers console

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 07:11 AM PST

    So few weeks ago I created new application in the google play developer console and after google play removed it I fixed some error and create new apk (new version with slight differences).

    When I created a new application in the google play developers console and created new version and uploaded the new .apk / .abb I installed it on my phone to test it and was surprised to notice that the version installed was from the previous application...

    if I will create NEW version to the same application it will still use the one that I "used" at the start.

    How is such thing possible? I dont understand what should I do and I am really confused.

    I will appreciate any help.

    Where are those jetpack compose sites?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 04:29 AM PST

    Over the past year, I've seen people create sites to document bits of jetpack compose. One of them was done by an android GDE I think. There was another one by someone else. Basically these sites had ui examples made in compose. I can't seem to find any of them.

    Please if you have those links, post them. The documentation on d.android.com/compose is pretty good, but I wanna see what else are those other sites and if there's something I can learn from those.

    Github toolbar title translation

    Posted: 12 Mar 2021 10:49 PM PST

    Hi everyone! Looking for some inspiration while building one recent side project I came across this subtle but nice looking animation the official GitHub app for iOS and Android has, it basically just shows and hides the appbar title, but the way it does is that it takes into account the current position of the title on the page, and slowly translates the appbar title, here's a video for better understanding Does any one have any idea how achieve such animation? Maybe CoordinatorLayout + custom behavior? Translating the text as the recycler view scrolls? I would really appreciate any help here 😅 Thanks!

    Can a bare-minimum APK be traced to me by Google?

    Posted: 12 Mar 2021 03:02 PM PST

    The APK only contains a web view that wraps a website and it's signed with a new keystore.

    I sold these APKs (100 APK's wrapping 100 websites) to a person online, and I'm not sure what he'll gonna do with those APKs.

    Now I'm worried that if they upload those in the Playstore, Google can trace those APKs to me via some personally identifiable information which Google may be inserting in the APK build process (could be device ID or whatnot).

    Is this possible at all? And if it is, isn't it illegal for Google?

    Android 11 Storage Access Framework - How to use files?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 08:34 AM PST

    Hey there fellow devs,

    I have come across a problem while migrating our app to the new API 30 standards with the storage access framework (SAF).

    I have successfully migrated the file structure and am now using the internal (FilesDir) paths.

    Getting images with the MediaStore-Api is also working quite nicely.

    But there is one big issue I just can't seem to fix.

    In our app, we are using the API "Mapsforge" for Offline-Maps.

    This API is using a Java.IO.File-Object we get from a path to a ".map" file which is almost 2gb large.

    This file does not come from us, it is a file managed by the customer and put onto the device for us to use, since all the ".Map"-Files are custom.

    Since the SAF is returning an Android.Net.Uri, I can't seem to convert it to a Java.IO.File without copying the contents of the file and therefore using even more storage on the device.

    Is there any way to use the SAF to get a Java.IO.File-Object I can use in code?

    If not, then Android 11 is making it very hard for my Customer to manage his storage.

    Greetings,

    Rejka

    Is it possible to create a file transfer app that uses ADB instead of MTP protocol

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 01:47 AM PST

    (Forgive me if this doesn't follow sub-rules, I might've misunderstood some rules in that case.)
    Recently I've had to repair my device (OnePlus 7 Pro) which meant I pulled all of my files of my phone. This. Takes. Ages. From what I've read online, it has to do with the MTP protocol not being the fastest for transferring hundreds/thousands of smaller files. I also read online that ADB push/pull commands would be a way to fix this. I was wondering if that could be streamlined through an application that would be similair to a windows explorer interface, where you can just drag and drop files from your PC to your phone or vice versa.

    Changing CPU governor on non-rooted devices

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 05:28 AM PST

    Is it still impossible to change the CPU governor on non-rooted devices? Searching online indicates it is impossible, yet this app Quad Core Processor Booster Max – Apps on Google Play says it does that, and my phone is not rooted.

    Is that app simply lying?

    Developing an Icon Pack application

    Posted: 12 Mar 2021 09:15 PM PST

    Hello!

    I honestly know nothing about developing android apps, but I wanted to create an icon pack that could be made available on the Play Store, I have even designed a few and have the theme in my mind and I know that it is a complicated and a long process, so I would like to learn more about it.

    I have installed the blueprint by Jahir Fiquitiva and I am gonna go through the wiki to just go step by step, but again I don't really know anything about coding and all so, is it possible for me to be able to create the app by referring to just the wiki or do I need to refer other sources? If you guys can provide me with some references and tips to help me develop, it'd be great...

    Also, about designing the icons, what are certain rules that I need to follow, pertaining to the size and everything of the icons? Currently I am using Figma to design icons and I had a few doubts....

    What should be the dimensions of the PNG I create? ( I was using 100 x 100 right now )

    When I save my PNG file I get white borders where there are rounded corners, so should I make them completely squarish?

    Also, if I take a certain design from Icon finder but edit the background and the colour scheme of it, would it lead to copyright issues?

    It'd be great if any of you could take some time out and clear my queries...

    Thanks in advance!

    external audio phone wakeup?

    Posted: 12 Mar 2021 04:54 PM PST

    Hi. I'm trying to understand how and if it is possible to have an always on sound detection and parsing for audio like how google has "OK GOOGLE". Obviously it is possible to do, but does google have exclusive access to that functionality, and if not, how do I set that up? Are there any libraries anything people could point me to that already do this?
