Best Android automated app testing frameworks in 2023
08 May, 2023

Google's biggest release on the next Android version i.e Android 13 is already creating turmoil in the technology ecosystem. This latest version of Google's operating system (OS) is nailing the Android mobile app development experience consistently well by bringing on the table some genuinely impressive improvements. Stronger protections for user privacy, improvements for developer productivity, quick settings APIs, per-app languages, faster hyphenation, programmable shaders, privacy-protecting photo picker, and improved permissions are some of the most significant Android 13’s SDK behavioral and platform changes under the hood. 
 

What's in Android 13: deep dive into the latest improvements

Android 13 enables the Android mobile app development team to make robust applications for a variety of screen sizes, network technologies, CPU/GPU chipsets, and hardware architectures, making the Android operating system works for everyone. Here are seven things about the Android 13 version that every android mobile application development company must know:
 

  • Developer Previews: 

It is one of the most incredible Android 13 improvements i.e. Developer Previews which allows the android developers to prepare their android mobile app development journey for the stable Android Open Source Project (AOSP) release and the Android ecosystem. By leveraging an early test and development environment provided with Developer Previews, programmers will be able to address challenges related to API feedback and app compatibility. Furthermore, developers will be able to make changes in the current application version, try out new APIs, identify compatibility app issues, and plan the migration while running smoothly on the new platform.
 

  •  Platform Stability:

The latest Android version is a step away from traditional platform compatibility. The final Android 13 SDK version comes with a Platform Stability milestone enabling all Android mobile application development, game, SDK, library, and game engine developers to leverage this milestone for solving final compatibility testing-related challenges before the end-users will receive the new platform updates on their devices.
 

  • Developer Productivity: 

The all improved Android 13 version comes with a comprehensive list of great new features and APIs to speed up the developer's productivity. One of the best functions under the developer productivity toolkit is the "new copy and paste UI" enabling developers to standardize the numerous visual confirmation notifications displayed by apps whenever the content is added to the clipboard.  
 

  • Predictive Back Gesture: 

By leveraging the predictive back gesture feature introduced with Android 13, mobile app developers will be able to provide the right migration path, which is much needed for back navigation APIs; making the complex navigation through apps much more streamlined. Unfortunately, the Android 12 version provides no support for the same, and therefore, developers need to update their older Android 12 based-apps to support either the

  • SDK & NDK tools: 

The Android 13 streamlines the mobile application development lifecycle by offering a comprehensive range of SDK, NDK, and tools that programmers can download through the SDK Manager. In addition to this, programmers can leverage emulator system images of Android 13 available to perform development and testing for a variety of mobile devices.
 

  • Quick Settings placement API:

As the name suggests, Quick Settings in the notification shade is one of the most convenient options available to implement changes in the settings without leaving the context of a mobile application. By using Quick Settings placement API, programmers can simplify the process of adding custom tiles and allow the user to directly add a custom tile to the set of active Quick Settings tiles. 
 

  • Better support for multilingual users: 

Android 13 allows programmers to optimize overall mobile application experiences for different multilingual users through per-app language preferences, improved Japanese text wrapping, enhanced line heights for non-latin scripts, text conversion APIs, unicode library updates, and faster hyphenation.
 

Android 13: Too much or not enough for Android mobile app development?

The evolution of mobile operating systems is still transforming the experience of users and application developers. However, the Android 13 rollout has already raised the bar by adding some incredible advancements in APIs, user interface, permissions, privacy features, and accessibility. From an android mobile app development perspective, there is a lot of significant improvements to explore in the Android 13 to deliver a great experience to the end-users.
