Any success stories of avoiding revealing PII on play store?
I have a free app that has Ads. It seems like that counts as monetizing but I'm not 100% sure.
1. My account is an "organization" now. Someone mentioned that google told him he can create a new "personal" account, say no to monetization and transfer the app over. However after doing so, google told him he cannot transfer an app from an organization to an individual account.
2. Others have said "just setup an LLC". I looked into this option as well. I live in NJ. It seems one would setup t...

Why am I seeing tons of attempted IAPs coming from China?
I released my English-only mobile game a couple weeks ago. A button in the app attempts an IAP to unlock extra content. Failure to retrieve the IAP from the Play Store sends me a notification and I am getting many of these notifications, almost entirely coming from different devices in China.
Why would Chinese players be interested in an RPG game that requires English to play?
Why would so many devices be attempting to make the IAP? Is it just bot activity?...

Is there an official list of current or upcoming devices supporting the 16kb page sizes?
Beginning with Android 15, devices can start supporting memory page sizes of 16kb https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/page-sizes.
We're using some native libraries that need to be updated to consider the 16kb page change, or we risk our app either not being available for users to install on such devices, or possibly just crashing on startup.
I'm still not aware of such devices on the market, but Google is promising that its partner manufacturers will be bringing them as soon as possi...

I recently became interested in virtual YouTubers and started looking for motion capture samples on Android. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find exactly what I needed, so I decided to create my own. I used Mediapipe to capture rotation values, then displayed a model in SceneView that mirrors my movements.
Although the motions still look a bit awkward, I’m sharing this as a way to show my idea. I hope it can be of some help or inspiration to others who are explo...

Structural: A lightweight Gradle plugin for enforcing package dependency rules in Android & Kotlin projects
Hi everyone, I've created a small Gradle plugin for enforcing package dependency rules in Kotlin & Android projects. This is particularly useful for scenarios where you don't have access to full modularization, such as SDK development.
Although we have libraries like Grease or FatAAR for attempting modularization in such contexts – if you're uncomfortable with using unofficial solutions for that problem, then this plugin is a much simpler alternative which still allows you to set up your desir...
