| Posted: 14 Dec 2021 01:10 AM PST I wanted to try it out to see what can I achieve with it but things seems super confusing to me, for now I'm just trying to make sense of all of this. So first, there is Kotlin Native, which if I understand correctly allow to compile Kotlin code for native, not running inside the JVM, which seems insanely good, I've done a lot of C and C++ in the past but if I can just write Kotlin code and run it natively be sure I won't ever write C or C++ ever again. Using IntelliJ, you can also create a Kotlin Multiplatform Library, which allow you to write a library in Kotlin, targeting the JVM (no Android?), js and native using Kotlin Native. Not sure how this work but why not, sound good to me. But those are for libraries, to make an app you may want to have an UI for it, good news Compose Multiplatform reached 1.0 stable a few days ago. Wait this does not have anything to do with Kotlin Multiplatform? Using IntelliJ, you can create a Compose Multiplatform Application running on JVM (Windows, Linux, MacOS) and Android, but no iOS, since it run on a java virtual machine. Sad, if it was running on iOS too I would just create all my apps using this framework, but for now the use cases are very limited. You can also create a Compose Web Application, but no Multiplatform + Web application? Why not? I don't know. Feel free to share your thoughts or correct me if I said something wrong. As I said I'm just trying to make sense of all of this in my head. [link] [comments] | ||

| Can/Should I use Google IAP for this kind of contents? Posted: 13 Dec 2021 11:34 PM PST Ok so my app let users create "contents" and allow them to share with others A user can request a content to be made by others with a price. So here's the flow:
These "contents" can only be created in the app and used by the app. I'm awared that it's kinda similar to Fiverr but fiverr's service can be consumed outside of the app. I'm guessing I must use IAP in this case? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks [link] [comments] | ||
| Android Certification value and level of difficulty Posted: 13 Dec 2021 11:03 PM PST Google recently introduced a program for university students in my country, where we could learn Android from zero using Google's curriculum for one semester and do a couple of other courses on the side (business, leadership, etc.) and at the end, there will be a capstone project to prove how much we learn. The main things that we will learn are:
Google will also provide free Android certification exams for selected students who fulfilled some criteria. My question is how realistic is it to be able to pass the exam if I were to join and study Android from zero for 6 months? From what I understand this exam is supposed to be for experienced devs and even some devs don't take the exam. Another question is how valuable are the certificates? Especially for undergraduates with no working experience in Android. Thank you in advance. [link] [comments] | ||
| Android Studio 2020.3.1 Patch 4 is soo slow Posted: 13 Dec 2021 12:50 PM PST Is anyone else finding the the most recent update is INCREDIBLY slow? Like when I connect a device it takes a full two minutes to even register the device and sometimes it won't even register until I open the device file explorer. I'm not sure what to do about this other than downgrade... IDE, Gradle daemon and kotlin daemon heap sizes are all maxed out... [link] [comments] | ||
| Advice/Suggestions regarding Career Path for self-taught developer. Posted: 13 Dec 2021 10:03 PM PST This might not be the best place. But I need some advice/help. I have applied to many places for an android internship, But I always get rejected in the first phase only, since I don't have a degree. I want to know How Agile methodologies are applied in practice. Want to get the experience of working in teams and how to collaborate. And start my career as an Android Developer. I am inspired by books like Clean Code & PPP by Uncle Bob, TDD by Examples by Kent Beck to name a few and try to apply whatever I learned from them. I follow test first development or Test Driven Development (TDD) [red-green-refactor] with emergent/evolutionary/incremental design. I follow SOLID principles with YAGNI(now) to keep my codebase simple. And try to make it as self-documented as I can. My Android Projects are in Kotlin with Single Activity Multiple Fragments, and MVVM Architecture using Coroutines, Flows and Jetpack Libraries. Why not compose? I think of compose/react as implementations of PAC architecture pattern. I have a react project(on Github) in which I tried to use this architecture pattern. And I have taken some notes regarding that. Also I might be wrong but it feels like testing is a bit hard with compose right now. Ui-Unit tests are good, but EndToEnd Tests or full screen Integration Tests are a bit hard. IDK, maybe I will know more on trying. But right now, I am unclear how to proceed further, after being rejected so many times. What I should be doing next. I want to work in teams, collaborate and apply Extreme Programming as I do these things. Any advice/suggestions would be really helpful. Sorry for the lengthy text. With no TL;DR.

| Is the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission accepted for use in file sharing apps on playstore Posted: 13 Dec 2021 06:57 PM PST I'm currently coding a file sharing app like SHAREit. Will it be eligible for the all file access exemption to include the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in order to be published on playstore. [link] [comments] | ||
| Those of you who use MoPub for mediation, what are you planing on switching to? Posted: 13 Dec 2021 12:58 PM PST As I'm sure most of you know, MoPub has been sold to AppLovin and they will be shutting down MoPub sometime in early 2022. AppLovin should have most of the same functionality from what they claim but I'm curious if anyone has done more research and what they are planing on using? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 13 Dec 2021 08:49 AM PST Does anyone know a good article, study or something on some good Android app pricing strategies? Like by how much should an app in Germany be more expensive than in India? I did a lot of experimenting and tried using the Big Mac Index too, but it didn't really work out well, so I'm looking for something more advanced. I'm interested mostly in selling the app itself with a one time payment, not some subscription or in-app purchases. [link] [comments] | ||
| Why do some app developers take time to implement new APIs? Posted: 13 Dec 2021 07:23 PM PST Hi, I am an Android fan, I love having the latest version of Android and I am up to date with news and updates. But hey, I have seen that there are several things that the developers do not use, such as: • The keyboard animation (WindowInsets), which was added in Android 11. • The transparent navigation bar (Display content edge-to-edge). • Android 12 SplashScreen API. • RenderEffect API (Blur effect, Android 12) Why don't some developers care what their apps look like? Some applications have design inconsistencies and others look good, now it is no longer necessary to have the black navigation bar, now it is better to have transparent. Does it take you a long time to implement those APIs? I think the most important thing is that the apps work correctly. I hope that some developers tell me their experience, I am not app developer, but I would like to know the reason why some do not implement those APIs. [link] [comments] | ||
| Accessibility navigation ignoring Android:nextFocusForward (and others) Posted: 13 Dec 2021 09:59 AM PST I need to have an app navigate thru the views on screen via keyboard or accessibility swipe navigation in a particular order . So far, Android ignores everything related to focus right, down, up,etc unless I add Android:inputType="text" which jacks up the layout by treating them as editable. What incantation do I need to recite over my cauldron of bubbling Android to do what the docs say I should be able to do and navigate to views for TalkBack in the order specified?

| How do you show your app code to recruiters but protact it at the same time? Posted: 13 Dec 2021 08:35 AM PST How do you share your code? Most companies require github, but how can I share my commercialized apps with recruiters and still protect it from copying. [link] [comments] | ||

| How Android Developers Do Software Design? -- Invitation to participate in a research study Posted: 13 Dec 2021 08:16 AM PST Hi r/androiddev! I'm a part of a group of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University, University of Washington, and George Mason University studying software design. We're interested in the phenomenon when programmers choose to implement a behavior in a specific way, even when there are many different ways to do so. Your expertise on how working on Android applications impacts the design decisions you make would be very useful in our survey. Link: https://forms.gle/KFtgDNNR6arRZYJ96. Your input in this field will help us better understand software design, which we hope to share with other researchers and technology companies to inspire new innovations in developer tools and static analysis tools for software architecture. Why r/androiddev? The problems you work on shape the reasons why you implement code in the way you do. The work you do as an Android developer involves a very different set of concerns than other programmers, so we're interested in hearing your perspective on how you do software design! Edit: Fixing formatting [link] [comments] | ||
| Developing an Android app for a fitness tracker that uses a NORDIC 52832 CPU and SI1182 sensor Posted: 13 Dec 2021 07:55 AM PST I'm trying to develop an Android app to get the BP, HRV, HR, SpO2, ECG, PPG, BPM, steps, activity, temperature, sleep quality from Spovan H02 fitness tracker (www.spovan-en.com/.../2669112013571072.html)) which uses NORDIC 52832 CPU and SI1182 sensor. The use of H-Band app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.veepoo.hband&hl=en) is made in the instructions manual, but it doesn't provide the option to save details and that's why I'm building the app. I've discovered the Android BLE Scanner Compat library (https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-Scanner-Compat-Library)) to scan for the BLE devices and the Android BLE Library (https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-BLE-Library)) to connect to and communicate with BLE peripherals. I found their SDK (https://github.com/HBandSDK) but I'm not sure how to proceed further. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] | ||
| HOW TO ADD DYNAMIC COLUMNS IN SQLITE ANDROID Posted: 13 Dec 2021 11:20 AM PST hello, I am new to android developement. Currently working on a data collection app and I am working with SQLITE database; The problem I have is that in the form of entering data (in the app); I have an input field filled by the user and based on this value ; many views will be shown and created (for example; if he entered 3 ; 3 views (EditText) will be created : type 1, type 2 and type 3) so there are dynamic columns that must be added to the database ; so I don't know how to add columns dynamically based on the field input . THANKS !! [link] [comments] |
