Library UIText Compose - Build locale-aware plain or styled string resource blueprints

I released a new library for Android and KMP projects using Compose.

**https://github.com/radusalagean/ui-text-compose**

It aims to allow simple or complex text blueprint definitions with string resources, outside of composables, while keeping the rendered text locale-aware and react properly to language changes.

Example:

strings.xml:

<resources>
<string name="greeting">Hi, %1$s!</string>
<string name="shoppingcart...

Differences Between Google Play Business and Private Accounts – Any Publishing Advantages?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently using a private Google Play developer account to publish my apps. However, I’m getting increasingly frustrated with how often my apps get rejected after testing, especially during internal testing or when trying to roll out a closed test (like the 12-tester requirement).

I’m considering switching to a Google Play business account, but I couldn’t find clear information on the differences in terms of publishing.

Here are some specific questions I have:
1. Does a busi...

Rejected after completing Take Home Assignment - Confused

Hey everyone, I recently submitted a take home assignment for a company (not disclosing due to NDA). Sadly I was sent a rejection for it and was told my implementation was "good, but not great".

I accept the feedback, but ultimately am a bit disheartened as I thought I did a good enough job - especially for a time limited take-home technical screen. I followed the latest architecture guidance and organized code in a reasonably modular way, handled error/loading states, etc.

I wanted to field f...

What is the best and most effective way of integrating ML with android apps?

I am thinking of creating a side project which will be an integration of Machine learning models as some feature in the android app like going through the data and providing some results to the app for the user.

What is the best way of approaching this project (dependencies, packages, etc.)?...

Is there a way to implement domain-based split tunneling in Android without parsing DNS queries?

Hey fellow Android devs,

I'm working on implementing domain-based split tunneling in an Android VPN application and facing some challenges. While app-based split tunneling is straightforward using the VpnService API's allowedApplications list, domain-based filtering seems more complex.

Currently, the only approach I can see is:

1. Intercept DNS queries
2. Parse the domain name from each query
3. Track the resolved IPs for targeted domains
4. Configure routing rules based on those IPs

This fe...

How to conditionally open Android deep link in app or browser based on a parameter?

I have a deep link set up in my Android app, and one of the parameters in the URL is isAccepting.

Behavior I want to implement:
If isAccepting=true, the link should open the app via deep linking.
If isAccepting=false, the link should not open the app. Instead, it should open in the device’s browser.

The tricky part is: I want this decision to be made without launching the app first. Basically, I want to inspect the link parameter before the system decides whether to open the app or not.

Is th...

Question about Play Store Testing for Updates After Production Approval

I'm currently preparing my paid app for its first release on the Google Play Store. I haven't started a closed testing yet. This is my first time trying to publish an app on play store.

My question is regarding future updates after production approved. Once my app is live and I release an update, will I need to go through the entire testing process (closed/open testing) again for each subsequent update, even though the app has already been approved for production?

Also who can be included in ...

Read YouTube video with ease

I'm thinking of developing an Android app whose main purpose is to provide a way to read YouTube videos in a written format. The idea is that users could browse YouTube videos within the app (perhaps via a search functionality or an embedded view), and when they click on a video, they would be able to read its transcript/subtitles (if available) alongside or instead of watching the video – without needing to manually copy-paste.

**My Vision/App's Core Feature:**

Use Google Maps APIas Fitbit app uses

Does anyone know the way to get turn-by-turn navigation events directly from Google Maps app, like Fitbit does? I can parse the status bar notification, but this approach is quite weak. The TurnByTurnManager API that Google Maps offers doesn't seem to work, unless I start navigation inside my app. But I only want users to use Google Maps from app and forward turn-by-turn guidance from Google application t...

Need guidance (switch to Spring Java from Native Android App dev)


In final sem of my college, i started android dev 8 months ago with passion. I took 45 days training where i didn't learned much but self studied from google developers courses.

But it is very hard to secure any internship or job in native android dev as a fresher, they want experience of like 2-3 years??

So one of my friend suggested consider switching to spring boot framework and go for backend roles, there's a lot of scope.

But i dont have much time because in like 20 days my college is e...

How to build an open-source and privacy-conscious mobile app?

Hi!

I wanna get into mobile app dev. I saw all these great open-source projects (just to name a few: Aegis, antennapod, anytype, ...) and wondered how they are built. Android development looks easy to get into when using GOOGLE services and Android studio but that's all closed-source (even Android studio sends usage data to google and jetbrains). So I wondered how all these great apps are developed. Are the devs just like: "Fuck my own privacy - I'm gonna develop that app with android studio an...

Subscription for speeding-up App Review Process

Maybe I am remembering it incorrectly, but I read somewhere in this sub-reddit that there is some sort of subscription for business acounts of Google Play Console.

I am new to app development, and google play review is taking too much time. I am using a business account and I am willing to pay any fee for speeding-up the app review process. So, if there is any subscription or any other way to speed-up the process. Please let me know.

As the app is added in google cloud console of the personal account, we added the organization account also as the owner in IAM & Admin so we can add new billing account in here, but the problem is when we create new billing account & select the payments profile in this account & added the same debit card as payment method, we get an er...

Vertical, fullscreen video preview in Play Store only works for certain apps. Why?

Since I make watch faces, I'm making short vertical videos to promote them. They are less than *30 seconds* long, *1080\*1920* and uploaded on YouTube (which recognizes them as YouTube Shorts obviously).

Now, when I set the video in the Play Store listing, I still see it horizontal and not full screen (I tried with the [youtu.be](http://youtu.be) and [youtube.com/watch](http://youtube.com/watch) version of the link). To make an example, I want something like [Outlook](https://play.google.com/st...

Is there a way to link to specific timestamps in Spotify podcasts from an external app?

I'm developing an app that needs to direct users to a specific timestamp in podcast episodes on Spotify. Is there a solution that would let my app open the Spotify app and jump to a specific timestamp in a podcast (e.g., open episode X at 34:27)?
