autoVerify="true" doesn't set app link to be 'always open in app' on android 9 and 10
Hello everyone! Is anybody here experienced in app links on android? I have set my intent filters, set autoverify='true' flag and uploaded the asetLinks.json file to the corresponding website. Tested on android 14, all is well. The problem appears on android 9 and 10. Despite my link being verified through assetLinks, in my app's settings i still have my links set as 'always ask' instead of 'always open in app'. App linking still works, but instead of opening the app directly, system first shows...

how to progress as a android developer
I've been learning Android development for several months, by completing the Google Android Basics with Compose course and some official documentation. Now, I want to advance my skills, understand what's happening behind the scenes, and work on more complex projects. However, I'm unsure how to proceed. My college seniors have advised me to learn XML, which I don't mind since I enjoy being flexible. But it seems odd to focus so much on XML if Jetpack Compose is the future, especially since I hav...

Using room outside the android environment.
As an exercise, I had designed a Java artifact and was trying to publish it... but then I realized that If I wanted to use this artifact outside the Android environment it wouldn't work.
I'll post Kotlin code... but I'm aware that I need Java releases of room... for a Java artifact.
I began looking the source code and I realized room is too coupled with the android environment.

Is hosting user generated content in your app a bad idea?
I'm currently building an app for a niche hobby (fossil hunting) which will include a forum for id'ing fossils and general discussion and a place to review fossil hunting locations. Of course this would involve uploading images too. Something I only considered just now, is it it a bad idea to allow users to upload their own content to my server? Anyone with experience in this area?...

I am currently a Software Developer for a large insurance company. I’ve been here 7 months, and I love my team. The problem is I am bored of the work.
