These days Android development is more fun, because you do less of the not-fun 🙂 ...And it was also fun working on this video with the great Android Developers team - thanks to Lily Sheringham and Chann Little, MBA in particular

Whenever a new Jetpack Compose release drops, I see the occasional misconception that "version 1.11" means its a young framework that’s not quite ready for primetime. That number can be a little misleading if you take it at face value. 🧐 But did you know that Jetpack Compose turned 5 years old this year and over 70% of the Top 1000 apps use it? For half a decade, the team has been shipping huge performance gains, new APIs, and many bug fixes. Yet the major version is still sitting at 1 - this is because Compose uses semantic versioning. Quick refresher on how SemVer works: Major (1.x.x -> 2.x.x) is only incremented for breaking changes. Minor (1.11.x -> 1.12.x) is for new, backward-compatible features. Patch: (1.12.1 -> 1.12.2) is for bug fixes We’ve had 100% backward compatibility over the last 5 years and we haven’t needed to jump to 2.0 just yet 😻 #AndroidDev #JetpackCompose #Kotlin #MobileDevelopment

Are your tests actually verifying what your app is supposed to do, or just mirroring code you already wrote? 🧐 Feed business rules, design docs, and user personas into Gemini in Android Studio to generate tests that validate true requirements → https://lnkd.in/fdJfcyJ

Imagine skipping straight to testing your custom Jetpack Compose UI instead of configuring API integrations. 🎯 Gemini in Android Studio takes care of the boilerplate code. Try the AI agent in your next project → https://lnkd.in/fdJfcyJ

If you’ve ever had wireless debugging drop the moment your network shifted or your device locked, this one’s for you. We rebuilt the stack, from the adb server and adbd daemon to Android Studio, to make wireless debugging truly fast and reliable. With ADB Wi-Fi 2.0, auto-connections are 32% more successful, and pairing via QR code is easier than ever. Learn how it works and how to set it up → https://goo.gle/4xSvPic

LLMs are really good at generic coding, but they can make mistakes when Android APIs change or complex configuration structures enter the mix. Android Studio Quail 4 has a solution for that. The final Android Studio Quail release now pre-loads skills built by our Android team directly into the IDE, giving your LLM instant access to domain expertise and Google's best practices. That means you can generate more accurate, up-to-date code without downloading additional files or writing long setup prompts. Plus, Android Studio now natively integrates Gemma 4 for easier access to local models and Agent Mode on-device. You'll also notice several UI updates that make AI interactions smoother and more transparent, including clickable hyperlinks in your agent's responses and a dedicated "Summary of Changes" tab. The goal is to give you more flexibility and accuracy as you build with AI. Download Quail 4 Stable to start exploring the new features, and let me know what you build!
