How good is https://www.virustotal.com/ to scan an apk?
Funny thing is I did search previously (2 weeks back) and I came across them today for the same search on google.
The reports seem detailed. I liked the interesting links - interesting to see why we have social media links like linkedin.com in a game app.

Is it possible to install PixelUI on the S23 Ultra?
hey, so I've got a Verizon S23 Ultra and there's bloatware after every update and i'm getting sick of it, plus i just used my old pixel 4 from like 4 years ago and i found it to be smoother than the S23 Ultra! is there a way to install the PixelUI on my Samsung? or perhaps just a global non-Verizon version of OneUI? Thanks in advance...

Medium Membership and Accessing Android Dev Articles on Medium
StackOverflow and Medium seem to be the two sites I visit the most other than the official Android Developers website as an Android developer. As some of you may know, you only get three locked Medium articles a month as a non member. There have been several times when I have reached this limit and have been unable to access Android dev articles that were set as locked with the paywall. Since I find Medium to be such a great resource for Android dev articles, I am considering becoming a member. ...

Google's GDPR Consent Form has a memory leak
Since Admob is now requesting that we get consent from European users before showing ads to them, I started implementing Google's API to show the consent form, following the instructions here.

From my experience, showing the consent form always triggers a leak. A reference to the destroyed Act...

Too many Payment declined messages
Hi everyone. I get a lot of payment declined messages every few days (from different users). Is this some spamming bots behaviour (or something like that)?

Play Store rules - White Labelling - Do I need separate accounts?
Hi. We have a big content and location based app that we are beginning to white label with different branding functionality and smaller subsets of our content for clients.
On iOS App Store they require that the client makes their own developer account and that I manage it as an admin user; I can't legally host the app from my company's developer account.
I was gonna try and just get away with it but I've read lots of stories of people being shut down for it and I don't want to risk our main ...

Experienced developer with a new Google Play Console account
I've been a software developer for over 10 years and have done stuff mainly for desktop games/apps and iOS. A couple days ago, I wanted to start my new journey of app development for Android mobile development with Kotlin, so I paid and signed up to see what the Google experience was all about.
As a surprise I learned that new accounts now require 20 testers in a CLOSED testing environment to be approved. What kind of requirement is this?!?! Some multimillion dollar projects don't even use 5 t...

What does Android struggle with v iOS?
I'm joining a new project in the coming days and in my squad I am one of the more senior devs although I don't really feel that I'm very senior. In the 4 years I've been a dev I've worked with multiple platforms and not had the chance to specialise in any of them yet.
We have an iOS team and an Android team in the squad - when we pick up tickets I need to be able to put the brakes on any of the feature work / designs that just won't work properly when implemented on Android. In your experience,...

How many modules do you have in your project?
Hey Community,
Just wanted to throw a quick question your way: How many modules are you managing in your Android projects?
I once dove into a massive project with about 200 modules. We got all fancy with micro modules like :core:formating, :domain:featureX, :data:featureX.
It seemed like a smart move to let each team own a specific module, but gotta be real – it turned into a bit of a nightmare. The build time sometimes skyrocketed to over 15 minutes, whereas in a more standard proj...

Audio and Video programming in Android with JNI
I have experience in C++ and embedded software for Linux and am familiar a little bit with Java. I am trying to learn Audio and Video software development for audio/video telephony calls, which I found out has quite a bit to do with JNI (Kotlin code calling C++ NDK library). I couldn't find any good book or tutorial online since this is probably something that doesn't fit into a single domain. I could find Embedded Android books that teach about Android OSP and bootloader and stuff, but dont' ac...

Authentication - Is It Scaring Away Potential Users?
Hi all,
Has anyone experienced that users tend not to sign-in using Google email and might avoid the app altogether if no other option is offered (such as anonymous sign-in).
Does your app requires authentication? If so, what trends have you been noticing? Have you tried using one click Google sign-in and leave it at that?...

Android Studio Emulator - Initiate a Factory Reset for Testing
I am trying to test a corporate fully manage enrollment setup for Android which requires the user/tech to factory reset their phone and initiate the setup at the first welcome screen. I have physical test devices for this however, I was curious if an emulator could do it.
Wiping the data within the emulator will just reset it and will not force me to the first welcome screen like a physical device would. I figured Android Studio adds a default cache file or something related since it is an emul...

Trailing lambda syntax - Readability
This may just be me but I feel trailing lambda syntax seems to create readability problems. I always whenever possible use
myFunc( intArg = 2, myOnClickBlock = {/ my code /})
instead of
myFunc( intArg = 2) {/ my code /}
With the first version the purpose of the block is known from the argument name. In the second version the purpose is unclear.
In addition for me the trailing lambdas sugar derail the readability flow of a function....

Optimistic updates when using Room
When using Room or Datastore, do you read from the flow provided by the library, which waits for IO operations to complete, or do you have an additional MutableStateFlow that is updated immediately (and saved automatically with debounce).
For values that change frequently such as text or counters, it's probably bad practice to trigger an IO operation each time. However, I think that creating a MutableStateFlow in the view model on top of the injected repository.dataFlow would go against t...
