Latest update

Activity: v1.12.0-alpha07

August 27, 2025

androidx.activity:activity:1.12.0-alpha07, androidx.activity:activity-compose:1.12.0-alpha07, and androidx.activity:activity-ktx:1.12.0-alpha07 are released. Version 1.12.0-alpha07 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue with EdgeToEdge on API 35 in which invisible views caused unexpected measurement insets. (If49ff)

Dependency Update

• Activity now depends on Navigation Event 1.0.0-alpha07.

Collection: v1.6.0-alpha01

August 27, 2025

androidx.collection:collection-*:1.6.0-alpha01 is released. Version 1.6.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Projects released with Kotlin 2.0 require KGP 2.0.0 or newer to be consumed (Idb6b5)

Bug Fixes

• Previously SparseArrayCompat was returning null for valueAt and keyAt when passed an index that was within the allocated range, but outside the inserted range 0..size -1. As documented, this behavior was never expected and outside the valid input range and this change fixes this behavior to instead throw IndexOutOfBounds when passed an invalid index. (I68453)

External Contribution

Thanks Jake Wharton for the following contributions:

• Align joinToString behavior with platform collections by adding a separator before and the postfix after the truncation indicator when limiting included elements. (I1b7e8)
• ScatterSet.hashCode no longer defends against recursion (i.e., the set being added to itself). This brings its behavior in line with ScatterMap, HashSet, and the primitive scatter-based sets (e.g., LongSet). Note that the equals method was already susceptible to recursion and toString defends against it—both behaviors which align with the other collections. (I9c84a)
• ScatterSet.retainAll function is now inline to avoid creating a lambda instance. (Ifa4b7)
• ScatterSet.hashCode no longer uses its capacity in the hash calculation ensuring equal contents but different capacities still produce the same value. (Ic863b)
• IllegalStateException is now thrown if you call remove() before next() on an iterator of the keys, values, or entries collections of ScatterMap.asMap() or ScatterSet.asSet(). This brings its behavior into alignment with the regular map and set behavior. (I71694)

Compose Material3 Adaptive Navigation3: v1.0.0-alpha01

August 27, 2025

androidx.compose.material3.adaptive:adaptive-navigation3:1.0.0-alpha01 and androidx.compose.material3.adaptive:adaptive-navigation3-android:1.0.0-alpha01 are released. Version 1.0.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

New Features

We are excited to announce the first alpha release of the adaptive-navigation3 library. This new library, part of the Material Adaptive and Navigation3 ecosystem, is designed to help you build adaptive Material UIs integrated with the Navigation3 library.

Use scene strategies to implement a canonical list-detail pane scaffold (ListDetailSceneStrategy, rememberListDetailSceneStrategy) or a supporting pane scaffold (SupportingPaneSceneStrategy, rememberSupportingPaneSceneStrategy). For more information about scenes, scene strategies, and other new concepts introduced in Navigation 3, refer to the Navigation3 guide.

Compose Runtime: v1.10.0-alpha02

August 27, 2025

androidx.compose.runtime:runtime-*:1.10.0-alpha02 is released. Version 1.10.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Added @DoNotRetain, which can be used to annotate types that should not be used with the retain API, possibly because they will leak resources. (Ie5435)
• Projects released with Kotlin 2.0 require KGP 2.0.0 or newer to be consumed. (Idb6b5)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed movable content to correctly compute the operations to the Applier when the content modifies the root node of a composition. When computing changes for movable content an up() call could be left pending and undispatched to the applier causing the applier state to be incorrectly positioned for any subsequent use. (I7c583), (I47b70)
• Marks CheckResult as deprecated because it is not meant to be used. (I32934)

Compose UI: v1.10.0-alpha02

August 27, 2025

androidx.compose.ui:ui-*:1.10.0-alpha02 is released. Version 1.10.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Update FillableData to support non-text components such as toggles and lists, including boolean and integer values inside FillableData and factory constructors to create boolean and list instances of FillableData that translate to the platform’s AutofillValue. The relevant semantic property and action also are added. (Ia8105, Icc5cf)
• In non-touch mode, the view system assigns initial/default focus to one of the focusable items on the screen. This feature is added to Compose and can be enabled by enabling ComposeUiFlags.isInitialFocusOnFocusableAvailable. (Ib9178)
• Removed flag isPointerInteropFilterDispatchingFixEnabled. (Iaa589)
• Removed flag isNestedScrollInteropPostFlingFixEnabled. (I2a756)
• Add in isHiddenFromAccessibility() and isInHiddenAccessibilitySubtree() semantics matchers. (I9f5a1)
• Added runCurrent() to MainTestClock to run all due tasks on the underlying scheduler. This is to support running tests on a StandardTestDispatcher, where tasks are added to the scheduler rather than executed immediately when they have a delay of 0ms. A test can be setup to use a StandardTestDispatcher by creating a ComposeTestRule and passing a StandardTestDispatcher to it. By default, tests are run on an UnconfinedTestDispatcher, in which case runCurrent() will never have to be called.
• Added support for running tests on a StandardTestDispatcher. Historically, the test framework was (and still is) set up using an UnconfinedTestDispatcher, which differs from a production environment in subtle ways. You can now change this setup by creating your own StandardTestDispatcher and adding it to the effectContext when creating your ComposeTestRule (or when calling runComposeUiTest ). (I334d0, b/254115946)
• Update code for creating a tree of nodes from SlotTree. (I997d3)

Bug Fixes

• Compose UI now installs lifecycle-aware RetainScopes on Android. The default behavior will now persist retain-ed values across configuration changes. (Id4a09, b/177562901)

External Contribution

• Adds the ability for VelocityTracker to calculate the velocity of a pointer based on tracked pointer events using platform-specific behavior. (I621e8)

Core-telecom: v1.0.1

August 27, 2025

androidx.core:core-telecom:1.0.1 is released. Version 1.0.1 is a bug-fix release that includes the following improvements which can be found in the these commits.

Bug Fixes

• Audio Routing and Endpoint Handling
  • Resolved an issue where a user's selected pre-call audio endpoint (e.g., Earpiece) would be incorrectly switched to Speaker when a video call starts. The library now ensures the user's preferred audio route is maintained. (8fa4ba7, 71d7be8)
  • Improved the audio switching logic to prevent calls from automatically switching from Bluetooth headset to Speaker, especially when the Bluetooth device takes a moment to connect. This check requires the BLUETOOTH_CONNECT permission to differentiate between device types.(de83f3e)
  • Optimized the auto-speaker functionality for video calls for users without Bluetooth devices. The library now performs a less intrusive check for Bluetooth devices before requesting the BLUETOOTH_CONNECT permission, improving the experience for non-Bluetooth users. (721f4e2)
• Stability and Crash Fixes
  • Fixed NullPointerException crashes that could occur during audio endpoint processing. The library now correctly handles inconsistent state management in PreCallEndpointsUpdater and filters null elements from the system's AudioDeviceInfo array to improve stability. (23dd075, 03eb616)

Webkit: v1.15.0-alpha02

August 27, 2025

androidx.webkit:webkit:1.15.0-alpha02 is released. Version 1.15.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

New Features

• Adds Profile#preconnect which allows apps to open a connection to an origin before navigating to it in order to speed up future loads. (I8db41)
• A new prerenderUrlAsync API has been added to WebViewCompat, allowing applications to speculatively prerender URLs before they are displayed in a WebView.
  Prerendering can dramatically improve loading performance by fetching the page ahead of time. When the user navigates to the URL, the prerendered page is displayed instantly.
  These APIs were previously released as experimental, and can now be used without the @OptIn annotation. (Ie14f5)
• You can now specify a set of profiles to load synchronously when calling the startUpWebView API. This is configured by passing the profile names to a new method in WebViewStartUpConfig.Builder (I9a6e6)
• Add a new API to WebSettingsCompat to enabled/disable BackForwardCache on the WebSettings object. This API was previously released as experimental, and can now be used without the @OptIn annotation. (Ie413b)
• Add support for overriding User-Agent form factors, The UserAgentMetadata class has new methods to get and set user-agent metadata form factors. The UserAgentMetadata.Builder has a new setFormFactors() method for overriding the Sec-CH-UA-Form-Factors User-Agent client hint. The current override values can be retrieved via the new getFormFactors() method. (I6d08c, b/430554841)

API Changes

• Add API to ProcessGlobalConfig to configure WebView's UI thread initialization (I5e85a, b/433273850, b/397372092)
• Add a new feature name for WebViewStartupConfig.Builder#setProfilesToLoadDuringStartup API (I36451)
• Moving the default minSdk from API 21 to API 23 (Ibdfca, b/380448311, b/435705964, b/435705223)
• Update origin matched header API to allow overwriting header values by calling setOriginMatchedHeader multiple times for the same header name. Also adds a new hasOriginMatchedHeader method to check if the header name is already in use.
  This change also marks the API as experimental, as it currently only supports setting a single value and origin mapping for each header value, and it will likely undergo changes in the future to make it support multiple values mapped to different origins. (I03365, b/419469873, b/429269470)
• The UI thread requirement for Profile#prefetchUrlAsync() has been removed. It can now be called from any thread. (I83d57)
• The OutcomeReceiverCompat interface has been removed in favor of the official androidx.core.os.OutcomeReceiverCompat version. The library now requires compileSdk 35 or higher. (Ie1ea5)
• Renames [is/set]IncludeCookiesOnShouldInterceptRequestEnabled to [are/set]CookiesIncludedInShouldInterceptRequest in WebSettingsCompat. (Ife9e9, b/428924452)
• Adding experimental API annotations to Profile.ExperimentalUrlPrefetch that had previously been omitted. (Ic54eb, b/417458061)

• The API setRemoteSessionTimeoutMillis in WorkManager’s Configuration builder has been added to enable configuring the amount of time a RemoteWorkManager session is alive from its last usage. (Ib23c8)
• Add an experimental API in WorkRequest.Builder to apply backoff when work is interrupted by the system. (Ie2dc7, b/335513480)
• Add test API to pass in a different worker class to TestListenableWorkerBuilder than the one being built to support custom WorkerFactory implementations (If6bff, b/389154854)

Bug Fixes

• Cache network capabilities in SharedNetworkCallback to prevent unnecessary IPCs (Ie4027, b/427115602)
• Fix an issue with network constraint evaluation where work items after the first would not get the current network capabilities and would instead hit ConstraintsNotMet after a timeout (Ib6a66, b/427115602)
