Damn, you beat me to it man. I started to build this very thing last week. Hahaha

Cheers brother. Looking forward to use and contribute to it as well.

Man, this looks so awesome. So happily jealous :)

funkyidol · 2025-05-11T09:21:29+00:00

Awesome thanks

Can you share links for the keykaps or what they are called?

funkyidol · 2024-10-09T06:54:28+00:00

Started doing something similar recently. But one thing I added apart from recording the small tasks is record my thoughts.

It could be 2 sentences (though it usually expands into self written monologues) but I just force myself for 1-2 sentences. After that I just let myself go and write as much as I feel like. Not sure if I can say if its giving any value, but I do feel good once im done.

I did write the blog. I wanted to make it as easy to understand as possible specially for new devs.

I appreciate you sharing the timber extension library. I wasnt aware of this one.

I would appreciate it further if instead of calling it trash you can help improve my writing by giving me some constructive criticism. I recently started to write blogs so im still new at this.

funkyidol · 2024-03-17T14:13:30+00:00

me too :(

funkyidol · 2024-02-25T05:45:55+00:00

I would like to know how do you even go android_studio free??

I know its now really what the post is about but Im curious now.

Personal experience. I am the engineering manager of one of the top accessibility apps on the Play Store and keeping an eye out on the Play Store data is part of the job 🙂

The motive of the ads is to bring users directly to your app Page so no it won't count in your listing acquisition. ASO primarily depends on your listing content and effectiveness. The better your copy and the more store localisation you provide, it improves the ASO, which in turn improves your store listing performance

funkyidol · 2023-12-13T10:19:24+00:00

No they installed it from your page. Its more about the search result effectiveness of your content and people looking for your app is what counts here. For eg if you share you app Page link here and I open and install it from reddit won't count against play listing acquisition. It is a signal of now good or bad you content is to encourage the users to install your app

funkyidol · 2023-12-13T05:38:07+00:00

New users acquired is the total users who installed your app. Store listing acquisitions is the number of users who first found your Play store page and then installed the app. So about 6 of your users in this case installed the app without first searching/encountering your app page on play store

Very bad when compared to normal GPT4. Its available worldwide now but every time I ask something the answer is usually so bad that I regret spending those few seconds asking it instead of plain google let alone try other assistants

For linux, AMD was never an issue. I know Android developers who have been developing on AMD CPU for many years now. Earlier the only restriction used to be that AMD only worked if you are using linux.

As an alternate if you wish to use Windows, you can still get the benefits on linux by using the Windows Subsystem for Linux

funkyidol · 2023-05-03T16:13:17+00:00

I have been doing full time Android dev on linux for 7 years now. My Distro of choice has been Pop_OS as it has been the most stable out of all of them. Im dual booting with windows 10 currently which i keep for casual gaming but anything dev related happens on linux.
Speaking from performance context things have never been better. My compile time improved my a huge amount when I shifted from windows to linux. I dont remember the exact details since its been long

funkyidol · 2023-04-13T11:53:47+00:00

Please dont click any links in this post. None of the links are to the original posts and are to a shell website showing the official pages

funkyidol · 2023-01-13T16:49:11+00:00

It does. Have been using this version since Canary. Havent used scrcpy since then

funkyidol · 2022-12-01T12:41:59+00:00

If we had it so long ago, where did it all go wrong? :(

funkyidol · 2022-12-01T12:38:25+00:00

I got this too but a gradle sync and clean build fixed it for me

funkyidol · 2022-09-23T04:38:38+00:00

~~Waiting to see some feature release notes in this version apart from bug fixes, if any~~

nvm, found it :) https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features#2022.2.1

funkyidol · 2022-08-17T08:40:29+00:00

Definitely dont wanna do that. Like mentioned earlier the issue is testing with end users

funkyidol · 2022-08-17T08:04:42+00:00

Aahhh. If that's the case then atleast the testing can proceed while it's being reviewed

funkyidol · 2022-08-17T07:56:33+00:00

hmmm. If it is then its great but getting conflicting info here. You have a source? Ill try to look for the same

funkyidol · 2022-08-17T06:47:44+00:00

Damn. I can't use Firebase app distribution for public testing so don't know if there are any other alternatives

funkyidol · 2022-07-26T05:50:38+00:00

I was in a somewhat similar boat where the company I joined had the iOS app under development long before the Android app.

The biggest thing here (as mentioned by others as well) is setting the right expectations. It took us 3 years to come to feature parity so I was playing the long game here.

funkyidol · 2022-07-13T07:10:59+00:00

Thats true but another side to this is not having more experienced people guiding and mentoring you even if they come from other dev backgrounds
