Localized Prices not displaying in text field on app
Hello,
I've been trying to figure out why the localized prices for my game's in-app products won't display in the text fields I've assigned them to, even though they work fine in Unity's editor. This problem only happens when I run the open testing build I've uploaded to Google Play.
I have set up my prices in the Google Play store to recognise the prices, and if I try to purchase an in-app product, it will display the local price correctly when the Google product pop-up appears. However, the ...

Questions about Closed testing on Google Play Console.
Hi,
Like many other new indy devs I have been coding an app for few months and I'm facing that unexpected wall, closed testing requirement.
You must invite 12 testers continously testing your app for 14 days.
I have read the doc but I'm still a bit confused.
About the 14 days:
Is this a global countdown from when you publish your closed testing and if you don't meet the requirement you have to test again your app for 14 days?
Or you don't actually have a limited time for closed testin...

DNS resolution with API 24
Hi everyone!
(TLDR in last paragraph)
I'm making an Android app and it needs to perform DNS resolution for domain names. The official Android documentation hints at using a class called DnsResolver which, however, is available only in API 29 and later.
I don't want to drop support for older versions, which is why my minimum API is set to 24. However, I also don't want to support versions older than 24 because I know the...

How can I record a Jetpack Compose screen with a live camera feed and overlayed drawings without using MediaProjection?
I'm working on a Kotlin Jetpack Compose screen that displays a live camera feed using AndroidView and overlays additional drawings via composables. I want to record this entire screen (camera feed + composables) into a single video file. However, I’d prefer not to use MediaProjection.
Does anyone know of a way to achieve this? Any libraries or techniques that could help would be greatly appreciated!...

(Compose) BasicTextField(2) & AnnotatedString
Hello, community!
I’ve recently started working with the new implementation of BasicTextField (previously known as BasicTextField2 but now renamed to BasicTextField as the base implementation). This updated version uses TextFieldState, and I have to say—it’s a solid improvement. Kudos to the team behind it!
That said, one limitation I’ve noticed is that it currently doesn’t support mixed text styles, such as applying different styles throughout an AnnotatedString. I understand this is high on ...

Dynatrace and WorkManager Behavior When App Is Killed

I’m dealing with a scenario related to Dynatrace and WorkManager.

Aren't we all generating POM files wrong?
Hey all, I've been trying to improve the publication of our Android Libraries (.aar) at my place of work.
And I've found that we essentially need to generate the POM dependencies because, unlike a Java lib, we don't get the dependencies automatically included
So we all probably have something along the lines of this in our publication logic:
```kotlin
pom.withXml {
val dependenciesNode = asNode().appendNode("dependencies")

Networking library recommendations?
Assuming you aren't using something like GraphQL, what networking libraries are people using these days? In the past, I used Volley, Retrofit and OkHttp. Are Retrofit and OkHttp still popular or were they replaced by something else at some point?

'Exactly' when do we call it unit test

I'm writing unit tests for this viewmodel but i cannot decide to whether or not i should mock or fake these validation use cases which are all pure kotlin code and never depend on anything external - except a resource provider class that helps to get system strings - (i am able to easily create an instance of them).

Multiple apps in single monorepo
I've seen a few threads about monorepos here but not quite exactly what I am facing. I've inherited a repo which contains multiple different (and very large) Android apps. Countless modules (great,) some of which are shared (also ok,) but most are not. Apps are solidly different and not something that would ever merge. Seems to have more downsides and overhead than any actual benefits.
In your experience, is this normal to stuff a bunch of apps into a single repo like this? Personally I've nev...

What is a proper way to change the color of an overlay behind a Dialog in Compose?
There is a scrimColor property in ModalBottomSheet, which allows to change the color behind a bottom sheet.
>scrimColor \- Color of the scrim that obscures content when the bottom sheet is open.
At the same time it seems like the only way to change the color behidn a regular Dialog is to use a fullscreen Box as a root view and adjust its background. Although I can't explain exactly why this method is wrong, something about it doesn't feel right. Is there a better solution?...

Porting my iOS app to Android - is this how it should look like?
Hi all! I'm a long time iOS user, but learned Swift/SwiftUI a while ago and made an app (side-project). Now I'm trying to make a native Android version of it. I'm starting to get a hang of Kotlin and Jetpack Compose with Material3, but since I just briefly used an Android device 10 years ago I struggle with what the true "native Android look" is.
With SwiftUI things often "automagically" default to a certain look depending on the context. For example (see screenshot) if I put text labels and bu...
