Best platforms to build on?
I've done some android development before, but in NET MAUI. I also tried Java + XML, which was pretty decent, and Kotlin + Compose (personally I found it very difficult, gave up after a while). That was all a while ago. I'm trying to get back into android development but there's a bunch of platforms to choose from and I'm kinda overwhelmed. What would be one that let's me use Material 3 (preferably with Expressive Design) and is somewhat future compatible (I've heard that Google is phasing out J...

Library modules need the androidTest source set to run Compose previews on device
This is not mentioned in the official documentation, but this Medium article breaks it down well.
Essentially, when we run the preview this triggers a compilation of the androidTest source set for the module where the preview belongs.
Without the source set, Android Studio will complain of a bad run configuration for yo...

Scrolless - Block Reels & Shorts & Tiktok
Hello all,
PlayStore URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scrolless.app
Over my last year, I’ve been spending way too much time doomscrolling. I recently saw a YouTube video showcasing an app designed to help stop this brain rot.
I tried it and liked the idea, but for it to work it required the Accessibility Service (which I know is mandatory for this kind of app, but still felt a bit meh as it's closed s...

Open testing not approved even after 7 days, what I should do?
Hey everyone this is my first time publishing an app on the Play Store, so I’m a bit confused and need some advice.
I completed closed testing, and my app was approved by the Play Console. I was also allowed to publish the app to production.
Instead of directly going to production, I applied for open testing.
It has now been 7 days, but the open testing is still not approved.
After a few days, Google asked me to fill a form explaining:
-> what my app does
-> a video showing the app’s functionali...

My eCPM looked great, but the money froze. AMA tip helped me spot the real leak
Caught something funny last week. One of my android apps showed nice eCPMs from a network, clean charts and all that, but the revenue line went flat like someone unplugged it. I threw this into the AMA with yango ads in r/androiddev and got a reply that hit right on the spot.
They said to check fill and show rate together. I had been staring at eCPM alone, thinking things were fine. Turns out my show rate dipped because the app preloaded ads that users never reached. People quit the session ear...

Antigravity, Android Studio. Do I need both or just Studio?
I've been looking into Android Studio's Gemini agent to generate a Kotlin Android app. It's quite an enjoyable experience. Gemini managed to generate all the UI activities for me, from an html spec (https://www.j3ltd.com/goodViberations/ReadMe.html) Not pretty but good enough, it helps me to get to grips with vibe coding, Kotlin and Android jetpack compose.
I am wondering if Antigravity does anything more or better. Should I look into that or is it just an alternative UI on top of Gemini?...

I can't find an option in settings to create the profile without enrolling to a company which is something I cannot do as I do not work at a company with this.

Use a self-made watch face without Google play
I don't like the watch faces in the Play store, so I decided to make one myself. So I installed "Watch face studio and began to make one.
Now I'm finished it and obviously want to use it. But I don't find any option, to just export my Watch face as a APK so I can run it by myself.
So is there a option of just use my own watch face without paying 25$ developer registration fee?...

App Reviewers :)
I'm looking for users interested in trying my app and leaving reviews. The app is relatively new, so it doesn't have many users or reviews yet, which is why I can improve it. It's an app that works like an accounting ledger, but with the ability to use groups of multiple people and see changes in real time on the group's devices.
Here's the link to the Play Store. I hope you like it and can leave a review. All comments are welcome :)

Learning Google Play app promotion for a portfolio project — ads don’t seem to get any traction
Hi everyone,
(English isn’t my first language, so apologies in advance if anything sounds awkward.)
I’m working on a personal / portfolio app and using it mainly as a learning exercise to understand how Google Play app promotion and app ads work in practice.
The app itself isn’t meant to be commercial — I’m more interested in learning:
\- how Play Store exposure works
\- how Google’s app ads behave for small, unknown apps
\- what kind of signals actually matter in early stages
I’ve been e...

My Journey from 0 Revenue to My 1st Subscription
I am an indie Android developer from India. I work alone, with no funding and no external support.
At the end of 2024, I released my Android photo editing app. I integrated Google AdMob ads and also added subscriptions to remove ads with weekly, monthly, and yearly plans. I truly believed this would finally lead to revenue.
But nothing happened 😔
Weeks passed, then months, and the revenue stayed at zero. Eventually, I decided to try paid advertising, hoping it would change things.

Is Nav3 ready for my app?
I'm working on an app with approximately 80 screens where we're using Nav1. There are deeplinks, passing around `viewModelStoreOwner` to stay in the scope of parent screens, nested `NavGraph`, all you can imagine with complex Android apps.

Android serial bluetooth connect issues
I have an app that connects to a pair of smart glasses over bluetooth. This worked previously on many different phones, however I've recently tried to upgrade it for use on some phones using Android 16 (zfold 6 and zfold 7).

How do you handle "credit consumed but server response never arrived" for consumable IAPs especially related to AI?
I'm building an app where users buy credits (consumable IAP via Revenuecat) to get AI-powered analysis of their input.
The problem is what happens when:
\- Credit is deducted
\- Request is sent
\- Cloudflare or Gemini fails / times out / network drops
\- User never receives the response but credit is gone
Last week Cloudflare had a few hours of downtime and this got me thinking about edge cases.
Current stack: React Native, Revenuecat, Cloudflare workers, Gemini API
Options I've consider...
