Testing for Compatibility
Testing an app’s compatibility with Android 13 is largely comparable to testing an everyday app. Reviewing the fundamental app quality principles and testing best practices at this time is a smart idea. Install your recently released app on a phone running Android 13 for testing, then go through all the flows and functions while keeping an eye out for problems. Review the behavior changes for all apps added in Android 13 that may alter how your app behaves or cause your app to crash in order to help you focus your testing.
Additionally, be sure to check and test for the use of prohibited non-SDK interfaces. Any limited interface that your program employs should be swapped out for a public SDK or NDK counterpart.
Get Your Apps Ready For Android 13
This article provides a high-level overview of the regular development and testing steps that will assist you in creating a preparedness plan that is in accordance with the platform release schedule and guarantees a positive user experience on Android 13. We add new features and modify behavior with each new version of Android in an effort to improve its functionality, security, and performance. While your app will frequently function as expected right out of the box, there are times when you may need to update it to reflect platform changes. A migration typically involves two phases, which may occur simultaneously:
- Ensuring compatibility with apps (by Android 13 final release)
- Concentrating on the new APIs and platform features (as soon as possible after the last release)
