FlowIntent.Core: Clean Android Navigation with Coroutines & Runtime Deeplinks
Hey r/androiddev! 👋
Throughout my Android development journey, I kept facing the same issue with Intents: the code gets complex, testing becomes difficult, and time slips away. That’s why I created FlowIntent.Core - an open-source solution that simplifies Intents with the power of Kotlin Flow. My goal is to make life easier for developers like me. Check out the project on GitHub and share your thoughts:

Best approach for setting up reminder notifications in a calendar widget?
I’m working on a mental wellness app called [Reconstruct](), which includes interactive tools like vision boards, planners, and an interactive calendar. One feature I’d like to improve is setting up **reminder notifications** for marked dates in the calendar widget.
Right now, I’m considering a few approaches:
1. Using `AlarmManager` for scheduled notifications, but I’m concerned about battery optimization and Doze mode restrictions.
2. Implementing `WorkManager` with `OneTimeWorkRequest` or `...

Jetpack Glance Lazy Column Delay
I use a LazyColumn in my widget and every item has a button. Whenever i click it its supposed to change the text of the item. Simple enough...but apparently not. There's a very noticeable lag between clicking and the item updating. I spent hours trying to figure out what i did wrong but it turns out its LazyColumn itself. When i swap it with a normal Column it updates instantly. I'm lost and have no other option but to ask for help. Did anyone else encounter this? If so how did you fix it?...

Does Network Inspector keep breaking for anyone else?
This is really annoying. Network traffic inspector is an essential part of my workflow, and when it works, it works super well. Better than any other tool such as CharlesProxy or ProxyMan.
But it just.. stops working and random every once in a while, making me have to completely restart AS to make it run again.
Any idea why this happens?...

Any Udemy courses suggestion?
Hey guys. I finished working on a project a few days ago and I will be benched for a few months until new project comes up. I have about 4 years of Android experience where a bit more than 2 years are on a big projects. So I would say I am on Intermediate level. I have been working with Jetpack Compose for past 6 months but there are a lot more stuff there that I still don't fully understand. Do you have some Udemy courses that you would recommend to me?...

Need a very very simple app for a school project
I’m looking for someone to develop a very simple Android app for a school project. The app just needs:

After submission, the app should generate a beginner-friendly workout plan based on the inputs.
The workouts should only include bodyweight, barbell, and dumbbell exercises.
The workout plan should be generated through an AI API (you can recommend an appropriate one if needed).

Calling ViewModel's onEvent in composable
I've been calling onEvent directly in my Compose code so far. I've encountered no issues.
But there are events where you need to call the event outside of onClick, e.g. for pagination or "marking as read".
I will be able to call that directly in Compose.
However, I also know about SideEffect {} composable. It's purpose is to call the code outside of compose, which, I guess, is what ViewModel is?
Please help me understand whether calling onEvent outside of SideEffect or LaunchedEffect is vali...

App opened and killed multiple times in background.
I work on an audio streaming app. It runs with an exoplayer (media3) in a forground-service.
I noticed a user with some strange data. The user has a Samsung A51 5g running Android 13.
What seems to happen is the app is opened and closed multiple times during a day/night.
I have contact with the user and the app is not opened by the user.
The user never closes any app on the phone (swipe from recent). Has the phone in flight mode while sleeping and only use my app 2-3times a day.
What and why...

If you’ve launched an app on Google Play, how much are you actually making from it? I know earnings vary a ton, but I’m curious about real numbers from indie devs.

Kubriko: create multiplatform games using a simple Compose library
Hi! I've already posted this to r/Kotlin, but since the main motivation for this entire project was me not wanting to stray too far from my Android / Compose comfort zone, this also feels like a fitting place.
I've just published a Kotlin Multiplatform game engine for developing simple 2D games that run within a Composable function. It's called Kubriko, and it's now avaiable on GitHub!

For a project, i will need to deliver some large assets as an OBB file. I am aware it's being deprecated from regular Android, but in other places (in this case the Meta Quest store for XR headsets) , its still a thing
I have read about the "jobb" tool from the Android SDK as a means to do that (https://developer.android.com/tools/jobb) but i cannot seem to be able to get it.

Hi all,
Have been working on a little app as a side project (originally to teach myself flutter and also as something for myself). I've been looking through tiktok and other places and it seems there might be a small niche for this and I've started looking into how to release this on the Play Store (I don't own a mac so AppStore is out of the picture for me right now).
What I'm wondering is how do you guys think about approaching release and especially testing things out like pricing etc...

Is there an efficient way to fetch buckets in MediaStore with count?
I'm trying to query all the buckets in external uri with their count from `contentResolver`.
I tried two approaches and both have big drawbacks.
## Approach 1:
* Use `contentResolver`'s query API with bundles to use `ContentResolver.QUERY_ARG_SORT_COLUMNS` and fetch the Bundles.
* Query each Bundle Id for the count of files in each bundle.
### Drawback in this
* Which I feel is inefficient due to querying in loop.
* required BuildVersion.R :(

How do apps typically handle SDK's with OneTrust or consent management?
I'm integrating and setting up OneTrust for an app. OneTrust manages privacy and consent to help mobile apps comply with laws like GDPR, CCPA, and other regulations.
The process involves uploading the app bundle file, where it scans for SDK's the app uses, like Retrofit, Okhttp, Glide, Google, Exoplayer, among other libraries, then it categorizes each SDK into these groups: Strictly Necessary, Functional, Social Media, Performance, Targeting/Ads.
The idea is when a new user uses the app, a con...
