    Android Dev - Why are review not showing on my app?


    Why are review not showing on my app?

    Posted: 05 Sep 2021 02:12 AM PDT

    I have created and app and it has been on the playstore for over a month now, I have two legitimate reviews that show up on the Google play console but not on the play store. Also if you find the app on the desktop play store site, all comments are visible. These comments have not been deleted by Google. Why can't I view them?

    Streamlining android development with Charles

    Annoying that the icons of Studio and the emulator are difficult to discern.

    Look at the screenshot above. Unlike the FireFox icon, the actual icons of Android Studio and the emulator are very small, because Google made the actual icon smaller to fit it in the white circle enclosure.

    I have clicked a wrong one on the Taskbar (using Windows XP-like setting) when I actually wanted to click the other one, countless of times, because they look similar, due to the fact that the actual icons are smaller, and they even use the same blue+green colour scheme.

    I guess Google added the white circle to make the icons look like Android icons, but this is Windows. None of other Windows applications' icons on Windows have such enclosure. I mean, you know, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"? Shouldn't Google not try to make those icons like Android icons on Windows?

    How To Prevent Screen Timeout Programmatically?

    Posted: 05 Sep 2021 05:44 AM PDT

    I am trying to build an app which will prevent the phone screen from going off(even if the app is minimized to background)

    I know that this feature is definitely possible as there are many apps in Play Store that does the same.

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eonsoft.ScreenON

    This particular app prevents phone going to timeout for an infinite period of time. They ask for Draw over Other Apps Permission. But I am not able to figure out how it can help preventing phone from screen timeout. Can any of you experts guide me how I can achieve this?

    Things I have already Tried:

    getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON); 

    But the above code prevents phone from screen timeout only if my app is opened. I want this to work even if my is minimized.
