Are Secure QR Codes (SQRCs) already a Thing?
I am working on an Android app for digitally archiving sensitive physical documents and at a brainstorming sess, some guy came up with SQRCs. Then, we all'looked up into it, but other than a Wiki page and a couple research papers, we couldn't find any info about it.
Do implementations of SQRCs encoders / readers even exist yet?
The idea we all agreed upon, by the way, is to authenticate after the QR code is processed, which is straightforward....

Xiaomi GetApps Email
Anybody get an email from "miuirobot@xiaomi.com" saying 10k+ people have searched your app, inviting you to add your app to their store? Is this legit? I looked up my apps on their store and there seems to be fake pages all with 4.0 star rating and <100 downloads, which I found kinda sketchy.
In general, does anyone publish their apps outside the playstore with much success?...

Does this look like an app that's been in development for 3 years with a budget of $500,000?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.civicinnovation.mariko
It's available in English. They have been given a grant basically from the government to develop an aid for people with Autism/ADHD to help structure their life. I've only done a short programming course, but the app looks to me like more of a proof of concept that could've been put together by one person in a couple of months.
I don't know how the budget for something like this would be used, so I'm not sure if there's f...

Can i upload app under my name at first for beta testers, and later under company name?
I am in the process of creating an app. The app will be in beta state soon, but registering a company will take months. I am therefore wondering if it would be possible to upload the app first under my name, for beta testing only, and later under the company name when that is done. Or would google remove it because it thinks it is copyright infringement?...

Transferring app to new Google Play account - what about subscriptions?
Hi,
I read that once you set up a payment profile as a merchant on your Google Play developer account, you cannot change your address to another country. You will need to create a new Google Play developer account with the new address and request an app transfer to it. (see https://support.google.com/paymentscenter/answer/9037880?hl=en)
Now, what happens if subscriptions are sold through your payment profile? Will they automatic...

Expanding Ads inside lists (popping up) - allowed?
I wonder if anyone knows if this is some acceptable ad placement strategy:
Having a list of items and showing ads in between the items and let the ads show inside the list instantly and suddenly after loading them by placing them inside the list between items. This leads to ads suddenly appearing underneath your finger when you try to click a list item in the moment an ad gets ready to get displayed...
I think it would be better to show placeholders as long as ads are not loaded and replace t...

2. When suggested features are approved by an admin, allow other users to vote and comment in real time.
