| Weekly Anything Goes Thread - July 30, 2021 Posted: 30 Jul 2021 06:00 AM PDT Here's your chance to talk about whatever! Although if you're thinking about getting feedback on an app, you should wait until tomorrow's App Feedback thread. Remember that while you can talk about any topic, being a jerk is still not allowed. [link] [comments]  | ||

| How do you folks handle purchases outside Google Play? Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:31 AM PDT Many of our users ask to buy the Premium version of our app without Google Play, either because they're in a region not supported by Google (China), or because they no longer use any Google dependencies on their phone (besides an AOSP fork).
Looking for a conversation about approaches rather than a technical how-to. Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Google Universal App Campaigns. How much time/users does it take to accurately target user actions? Posted: 30 Jul 2021 11:52 AM PDT I'm having trouble getting a google ads universal app campaign to get me the amount of users who complete actions as I think it should. I'm targeting users using firebase analytics who keep and use the app for longer than 24 hours, based on my analytics that number is around 43% of users (close to half). And when I've done campaigns to just get any users in the past it cost around 80 cents per install. When I target the 24+ hr users and bid $3 it isn't able to get me that much for the price point, the avg ends up being about $8 to 12 per user who completes that action (even though it should be about $2 since its normally half of the users). I have a few hundred users who hit the event per day which is supposed to be more than the minimum for googles AI to figure it out. Anyone else have a similar problem and figure out how to fix it?

| Why is App Context even a thing? Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:38 AM PDT Why wasn't it decided at the start to just give developers methods like getString(int resId) that work everywhere without Context? After all, everything the app executes is... executed in the app. So it must have access to those Resources, even without Context. So I don't see a reason why Context is required in so many places, apart from specific cases like Activity/Layout stuff which requires some kind of Context for good reasons. Not a beginner btw, but if a beginner asked me "Wait why can't I access my declared Strings in the data class I just created" I couldn't give them a good reason. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Rewriting my app, java, kotlin, (compose?) advice. Posted: 30 Jul 2021 02:47 PM PDT So around a year ago I started working on a sports stopwatch app, just to see if I can pull it off, based on the fact that I kinda knew C# and java should be similar. I pulled it off, but given the fact I started with the mindset of "I wonder if I can make a clock that counts down", and ended up with lots of features, using room database and saving a bunch of data, all while adding any feature just to make it work not caring about design at all, it's honestly impressively badly written code, worse than most would imagine, and I'm shocked it works as well as it does (our small league actually uses the app for managing its games via screen mirroring, its really cool). So now I have 2 months off pretty much, and I want to rewrite the whole thing, so it's presentable whenever I decide to go job hunting, and to just learn more and be able to expand the app easily. I would say I'm pretty ok with java, but the vibe I'm getting from this sub is that java is on its way out while kotlin is the shit, and maybe compose should be thrown in (I'm definitely not sure where compose even fits in here). Given the fact the I'm time constrained:
tl;dr - rewriting an app. java (which I kinda know) VS kotlin (never touched that) and maybe compose? I'm really not sure where compose fits. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Anyone familiar with the new google dev policy updates announced recently: Posted: 30 Jul 2021 04:27 AM PDT I have read all policy pages but I am wondering and not sure is there anything that I should update in my apps that:
That's all for now, Please guide me on what should I update in my apps, store listing etc. so that there is no app update rejection in the coming time. [link] [comments]  | ||

| What's the point of Intent flags conjunction? Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:51 AM PDT Hi! We have android:launchMode="singleTask" which indicates that with default task affinity it will destroy activities on top of the task till it gets to the needed activity and call onNewIntent() method in that activity. We also have Intent flag for this purpose - FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK. Here comes my questions:

| Posted: 30 Jul 2021 01:34 AM PDT In mine, no company has open positions for interns and even juniors. I've searched in all of the hiring platforms, and I have exactly 0 opportunities. Many medior and senior positions, some React and even Flutter junior positions, but no native. I'm really sad and desperate now, feel like I'll never be an Android dev. [link] [comments]  | ||
| How stable is the "id" integer of a resource asset? Posted: 29 Jul 2021 04:01 PM PDT I have drawables which I load as Bitmap objects, and those Bitmaps are stored in Item objects. I am saving the Item objects to a database, and saving the int:id as a reference to the drawable file. Is this wise? Is it best practice? Is it reasonable to fear that the reference will stop working? [link] [comments]  | ||
| How to Choose a Tech Stack for a Mobile Application Posted: 30 Jul 2021 02:33 AM PDT Choosing the right tech stack for your mobile app is not an easy decision. There are many factors to consider, and you have to make sure that each of them is well deliberate as it directly impacts the success of your project. Check this blog post to help you with that: https://applandeo.com/blog/how-to-choose-a-tech-stack-for-a-mobile-application/ [link] [comments]  | ||
| A CS193P Like Course For Android Posted: 29 Jul 2021 09:21 PM PDT I came across CS193P, which is a course taught by Stanford, teaching students the basics of iOS development, and I really liked the course's difficulty level, how the instructor simply explains everything, and the fact that it is a project based Course, put simply I loved the course. Are there any similar university courses for Android Development? Any modern ones that use current practices? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Robolectric vs espresso - ideal testing strategies Posted: 29 Jul 2021 10:06 PM PDT I hope Nitrogen will be out soon so we can just use espresso for off device unit test. For the time been whats your take? I talked to a Reddit app developer. He said Reddit doesn't use Robolectric, but from what I read about Google, they use Robo extensively. My take. Correct me if I am wrong. 1. Use Robo as much as possible to unit test every single piece of UI. The result is you are almost 100% certain each screen works as intended and bug free on its own. (Discount cross screen interaction)
3.I am not familiar with continuous integration. I imagine if you have a dedicated machine to do espresso testing 24/7. You probably can get away with no Robo and write everything in espresso and let that dedicated machine manage testing for your whole team. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Firebase Cloud Messaging only works a couple of hours Posted: 29 Jul 2021 09:49 PM PDT I made a test app to try firebase cloud messaging, it only works hours after I install my test app, then it seldom receive any further messages, no idea what is wrong. Is is possible that the FCM server detect the activeness of your app, and screen those client that are not active? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Room database caching - is it worth? Posted: 29 Jul 2021 08:34 PM PDT For majority of apps that serve online contents. (Excluding giants like FB). Do you think my points are right or wrong or something is missing? Is Room useful for anything other than offline mode and caching?
