    I'm very excited to share my new android game "Blob Dash". It features an infinite level based on prefab components. Soon to come is a mode with more complex finite levels and a level editor for you to make and share your own levels.

    What SDK are you using to develop android apps?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 04:41 AM PDT

    I have few questions regard admob integrating.

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 05:56 AM PDT

    I've read few times on internet that "Don't enable admob ads on your app/game until you gain some decent install numbers otherwise you may be get an ad serve limit"

    I'm developing a android game in Godot engine and Let consider that my game has a video reward trigger.

    1. Can I do this(disabling ads in starting phase) by set Status to paused in under Campaigns in admob dashboard after publishing game or Do I have to publish a game version without ad keys and reward video triggering mechanism.

    2.If I can paused in admob dashboard and There is still reward video trigger , What happen when player triggers it? Does something like test ad plays and can the player get the reward?

    Thank you!

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 09:07 AM PDT

    Hello, I'm a designer who is currently working with a programmer on a project for an app. I have been searching on google to see if what I want to do is doable, but I haven't found anything, so I tought I could ask it here. So basically, we want to implement in the furure an feature to our app that uses monetization from adds inside of it to pay users for their created content, same as youtube and facebook do. Is this even possible to do if you are not Google or Meta? Lol

    Launched App opens in browser, what is that behaviour?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 04:23 AM PDT

    I just downloaded an app and when launching, it opens the browser on my phone and is used via the browser.

    What is happening here?

    Is this a PWA, something else, or is it simply using an app, to launch what is really a website?

    If the latter, what is the point in that behaviour? Could it be perhaps they didn't have resources to build an app, so built a website but wanted an app like experience, push notifications, wanted it in the app store, etc?

    Questions to ask junior Android developer in interview

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 03:49 AM PDT

    My company seems to hire junior Android developer 2 years experience. I have more than 4 years experience but I am not an expert & haven't developed advanced apps like media player, short video etc. The biggest problem for me is navigation component, paging library & jetpack compose. I haven't worked with these yet. For navigation component I already seen criticisms about it for requiring more workaround code in my earlier post. Paging library seems complicated. I'm able to do pagination with recycler view scroll listener itself. Jetpack compose is not 100 percent ready to replace XML & don't want to mix XML & this for now. I'm afraid if the junior is learning with this it will make my work more complicated. What questions should I ask to him/her? Frankly speaking I'm not in need of a junior & I hate the job of guiding juniors.

    How do you design UI ( Recomend tools )

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 03:47 AM PDT

    Hello.

    I am a beginner. I wonder what are people use for designing the UI of apps.

    Are there any good free programs that will let me draw the UI and experiment with diferent things like colors, buttons, where to put images and so on ?

    Especially are there any I can use directly on an Android phone, so I could do it while one the train when I am not home ?

    Any Clean Architecture app courses that make use of Flows completely without LiveData?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 10:28 AM PDT

    I'm curious as most of the "full app" courses/tutorials I come across on Udemy, YouTube and Udacity tend to be a bit old so they end up using LiveData.

    Anyone got any links to decent Clean Architecture app courses that completely make use of the Flows and Channel APIs / and StateFlow instead of LiveData?

    how to make an image move across the screen when the phone is tilted using jbox2d

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 02:21 AM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    I"m trying to create a coin and give properties to it like shape, colour, and also it should rotate when it slides through the edge of the screen. if the phone is tilted the coin moves towards the tilted direction. somehow like this as seen in this video as shown here I have researched on the topic I think it can be done using jbox2d or liquidFun. I've tried a couple of tutorials but they are really hard to follow. Can someone help me with any quick plug and play solution which I can use to get this working? thanks!

    How to develop the delay camera app in Android

    How to develop the delay camera app in Android

    I'm trying to make an app like this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kohshin.delaycamera

    This app's main feature is the screen that has 2 CameraPreview windows (like the attached video)

    The small screen one is played first, and the big screen one is played after 5 seconds and it replays what the first one played.

    How can I do this using camera2?. I don't know any keywords or libraries to do this.

    example

    How can I collect native crashes info without Crashlytics and without writing my own signals handler with <signal.h>?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 10:12 AM PDT

    Hi!

    I need to collect some simple data about native crashes (C/C++/...) hapenning in my app - the fact that a crash has happened and the name of the binary it has happened in.

    I know this can easily be achieved by connecting Crashlytics and looking at the data in the Firebase console, but I can't do that since I need to do some (simple) extra handling of the crash from within the app.

    I've tried to find a way to observe the Crashlytics crashes-handling in the code (to subscribe to the Crashlytics class somehow), but it seems there's no way to do that.

    I also know I can create a small C-lib which would receive crashing signals by <signal.h>, but it seems like a too complex way to achieve something that probably has a simpler solution.

    Is there a simpler solution though?

    Maybe there's a library which allows to do just that - to observe native crashes from within Java/Kotlin?

    Question. I successfully loaded my first app, but Icon does not appear on phone: There is a grey spheroid. App works great. Help.

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 07:13 AM PDT

    Hello Friends, Full disclosure, I built it with a nocode tool, Adalo.

    I am told by developer chat

    "Thanks for patiently waiting for my reply. Please note that the icon displayed in Google Play will match the icon uploaded to the Main store listing page in your Play Console.

    However, once the app has been installed on a device, the icon will be displayed from the graphic assets of your artifact as defined in the "android:icon=" manifest property."

    "To find the location of the existing icon, you can use the manifest property or check your artifact's "res" folder."

    "The only way to resolve your issue is to update the icon image file in your artifact."

    I am also seeking help on Adalo forum.

    Any clues on how to proceed are greatly appreciated.

    Background timer nowadays.

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 11:59 AM PDT

    Hello mates,

    I'm refactoring an old app I did a few years ago and I'd like to know if someone has experience doing something similar and what's the correct way to do it.

    My app had a countDownTimer that ran in a background service which also had a notification and with a BroadcastReceiver the app could update the views.

    Similar to Google's (and others) Clock app.

    The thing is, with so many service/broadcast background limitations... what's the best way to do it now? WorkManager, AlarmManager, Foreground service/broadcast?
    Do you have any recent github project implementing something similar?

    Thanks in advance.

    Extensive use of trailing lambda in jetpack ???

    Posted: 16 Jun 2022 02:16 AM PDT

    is it true that in jetpack you need to heavily work with trailing lambdas?

    the tutorial I've been following uses trailing lambdas quite extensively, and i'm having a bit of hard time wrapping my head around all these trailing compose function.
    just want to know is it just this guy or jetpack does use a lot of trailing lambda functions ???

    Duplicate declarations of permission android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION with different maxSdkVersions

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 02:59 PM PDT

    I have an app that has a minSDK of 26 and targetSDK of 30

    I have NOT declared ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION in my manifest

    I have two third-party libraries that have no substitutes. One declares ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION with minSDK=21 and targetSDK=31. The other declares ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, but i'm not sure what minSDK or targetSDK are set in that lib.

    It compiles and runs locally.

    We built a release version .aar and trying to upload it to the play store gives:

    Duplicate declarations of permission android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION with different maxSdkVersions.

    Is there a way to handle this?

    Anyone in this sub worried about layoffs at all? Curious on peoples thoughts

    Posted: 14 Jun 2022 06:46 PM PDT

    If you're from the US, I'm sure you've seen some news about layoffs in "tech" companies across multiple different industries. I'm sure there are layoffs in other countries as well, I'm just not aware of the amount or severity comparatively. Mostly getting my data though layoffs.fyi

    Either way, what's everyone's thoughts on Android Devs when it comes to the layoffs? Worried? Not worried? Not sure what to think? How's your country/company doing? Any personal experiences?

    Noob Advice

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 12:07 PM PDT

    After you build your first Android app/game, how do you folks go about sharing your game and getting people to initially test it out? Is this the sub-reddit for that kind of thing or is there another sub where folks share links to their new creations looking for feedback?

    Thanks for any advice!
