| I wrote a paper about r/androiddev Posted: 02 Nov 2021 08:38 PM PDT I'm a Ph.D. student at CMU, majoring in usable privacy and Human-Computer Interaction. The overarching theme of my Ph.D. research is to make privacy an easier task for developers. Last summer, I came across r/androiddev and spent a lot of time reading posts on it regarding personal data and privacy. Then I wrote this paper to summarize what I learned. Since in our field, most of the research has been focused on making privacy more usable for users, I really hope this paper can make the challenges in how developers deal with privacy requirements more visible to the research community and Google (eventually). Since this is a paper about you (Android developers), I'm keen to know if you have any thoughts about the paper or just about privacy from a developer's perspective. I'm happy to answer any questions:) [link] [comments] | ||
| Can we promote affiliate links in our app Posted: 03 Nov 2021 02:30 AM PDT We have an Android App, users play games to win points. I wonder is it against Google Play's Terms of Service to promote affiliate links or other websites/apps inside our app? [link] [comments] | ||
| App crash after activity using audio-visualizer-android Posted: 03 Nov 2021 03:10 AM PDT Hi guys, I am trying to build an app where a voice message is delivered with a visual animation. The voice message is a simple .wav file. The visual animation is the BlobVisualizer from https://github.com/gauravk95/audio-visualizer-android . When I check out the Logcat from the Emulator, it brings my to the Visualizer class, where the import of android.app.ActivityThread does not work ("Cannot resolve symbol 'ActivityThread'"). The same happens on a physical device. Can you help me, please? Activity ______________________

| Switching between navigation component screens so fast Posted: 03 Nov 2021 04:24 AM PDT So here's the scenario and I hope it clears the problem. I have two screens (fragments) on the bottom navigation bar, (home, profile) Within the home fragment there's a menu which has an item to open third fragment. So my friend was testing my app the other day and whilst he was switching between home fragment to profile fragment quickly, he kept clicking on the menu item which was in the home fragment, and after several attempts the app crashed with the error: Couldn't find destination: ProfileFragment to addFragment. The thing is, the app tried to open the addFragment from the profile which is impossible. So how can I avoid this? [link] [comments] | ||

| How to restore an application level variable Posted: 02 Nov 2021 11:21 PM PDT We have savedInstanceState for Activity and Fragment, and restore it when the app came back to alive. But at times the application level also got killed as per this article https://medium.com/mobile-app-development-publication/dont-keep-activities-alone-is-not-enough-for-testing-407b7c01bd60. Is there a way to restore application-level variables? [link] [comments] | ||

| Geolocation Library for Android Posted: 02 Nov 2021 10:25 PM PDT Currently, I am working on Location tracking apps. I need to use a reliable Geolocation Library. I search on found TransistorSoft. It is a premium library (need to be purchased). I have been trying it out, I found some issues with reliability. So I need a comparison or another choice. Is there anyone who knows or uses any Geolocation Library on Android or Mobile apps? It is okay if it is a premium library. [link] [comments] | ||

| Is Chinese OEM messing up with activity starting from the background service as well? Posted: 02 Nov 2021 08:47 PM PDT Hi Everyone, As per Google documentation at https://developer.android.com/guide/components/activities/background-starts#exceptions, an app with SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission can start an activity from the background service. I have an app lock application that opens the lock screen activity from the background service. In recent times, I have noticed that a new kind of crash coming specifically from the Android 11 devices of Oppo and RealMe when the background service trying to start the activity even though the app has SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission. All of these crashes are happening only on Android 11 and on the above specific brands. Here is the crash details -> Caused by java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean com.android.server.wm.ActivityRecord.isVisible()' on a null object reference Is anything changed on Android 11 for starting activity from background service? or Are the Chinese OEMs added an extra restriction on the default Android behavior?

| Virtual cam in Emulator or Phone Posted: 02 Nov 2021 08:17 PM PDT Hey, I a phone/emulator to believe that a virtual camera is the actual camera. I want the virtual camera to have a decent resolution. Ive tried different ways and emulators but none work with higher than 640x480. Providing a image to the camera instead of a live feed would also work. Android studio seems to allow it with a real camera so if its possible to emulate the virtual camera as a usb device that might work. Im trying to use OBS as the virtual camera.

| Login credentials for app review Posted: 02 Nov 2021 07:19 PM PDT Has anyone had issues with Google manually reviewing their app and having a login process that doesn't use passwords? In our last update Google decided to start manually reviewing the app and asked for login credentials to be provided. We uploaded instructions and a video detailing how you enter an email and we'll shoot over a OTP but it got rejected again (though the email they sent to us never mentioned that we should have an alternate login way for them to use). My guess is they don't want to rely on OTP or checking emails. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Should we just have an alternate login method using a special review account for them to use?

| What are main limitations in android vs ios Posted: 03 Nov 2021 12:51 AM PDT What are main limitations in android vs ios. Some apps dont seem like they're being made on android and theres many more devs on androids. Are there more main limitations in android vs ios for apps? My friend has cool ios note apps. When you're on a note, you can swipe left right to go to next notes that are pinned/or that you selected as "main notes". Agenda and Craft on ios is also really amazing. Looking for things like Agenda or Craft. (both are different). Craft seems like its really good for editing and Agenda seems like best design for note apps, never seen anything like this before. You cannot swipe left right in either of these, but they do other things that are amazing and wow. Dunno who made them. If agenda had editing features for mobile like craft that would be a huge winner forever if amazing features were combined, its really amazing Also looking for apps where you can swipe left right to go to next note when you're on a note. Apps that you can type on, not drawing apps. Some drawing apps do this [link] [comments] | ||
| APNG vs GIF memory consumption Posted: 02 Nov 2021 10:47 AM PDT Hi, Right now, I'm using GifDrawable to show GIF stickers in my app, the current issue is the displayed GIFs takes a lot of memory, the low-end devices will have a performance issue using my app, so I wonder if I migrate to apng-drawable this will help me get better performance? Thank you [link] [comments] | ||
