Forwarded from Mishaal's Android News Feed

Mishaal's Android News Feed - Android 15 is updating the NFC stack to add a new “observe mode.” Observe mode lets devices listen but not respond to NFC readers. On supported devices, apps can request the NfcAdapter to enter observe mode so they then get PollingFrame objects to process.…
Android 15 also:

* Helps apps keep up with the dynamic demands of web-hosted deep links by building in support for more precise Intent resolution

* Adds additional controls to improve the on-device multi-language audio recognition that was introduced in Android 14

* Introduces a new ApplicationStartInfoAPI that gives apps more info on how they were launched;

* Expands OpenJDK API support

* Improves PackageManager’s Stopped State to remove PendingIntents from apps

* Offers a new StorageStats.getAppBytesByDataType(...) API that provides more insight into how much space an app is taking up

* Brings a new mediaProcessing Foreground Service type to help apps migrate away from the dataSync Foreground Service type

* Adds new SQLite APIs that expose advanced features from the underlying SQLite engine that target specific performance issues that can manifest in apps

* Deprecates the Virtualizer class in favor of AudioAttributes.Builder.setSpatializerBehavior

* Enables the elegantTextHeight TextView attribute by default, replacing the compact font used by default with some scripts that have large vertical metrics with one that’s more readable. The compact font still exists but may not be supported in the future.
