🚀 Big news for Android devs using Jetpack Compose! Media3 just dropped version 1.6.0, and it includes a brand new artifact: media3-ui-compose! Finally, seamless and customizable video playback directly in your Compose apps. 🎬 #AndroidDev #JetpackCompose #Media3

[Android Developers @AndroidDev]

🚀 Media3 1.6.0 is here with a host of new features and improvements!

✅ HLS interstitials
✅ Pre-warming decoders
✅ media3-ui-compose artifact
✅ Effects demo
✅ MediaExtractorCompat

[Jolanda @ lojanda.bsky.social @Lojanda]

Why this approach? We're giving you the flexibility you need. Instead of a pre-built UI, you get robust, tested state logic. This ensures your custom controls are perfectly synced with playback. Reliability of Media3 + creative freedom of Compose = 🤩

@LachlanTMcKee Hi Lachlan. Sorry for the late reply, I'm not as active on this platform as I used to be. The work on accessibility support in ATF is active and ongoing.
Here's the bug that you can follow, which also links to a set of code changes: https://t.co/lEC0AasinF

Do you know about the different #JetpackCompose phases? 🤔

Make a t-shirt with me while I explain them 👕 #androiddev

[Jolanda @ lojanda.bsky.social @Lojanda]

When should you choose a MediaSession over a plain Exoplayer instance for your video or audio use case?

We added a section to the Android documentation with more opinionated best practices. Do you agree with them?

Seems like this was my last ride @VanMoof. It's time to start looking for a new challenge as iOS developer. I have just over a decade of experience working on consumer facing products, working as a web dev, product designer and iOS dev.

LMK if you're looking for someone like me!

I created a photo grid with multi-select in #JetpackCompose and wrote about it. Have you implemented a cool interaction in your app? Let me know!

[Android Developers @AndroidDev]

I'll be looking for a new role for an August start 🤖✨

I'm looking at Android developer positions: remote roles (esp. ones with budget for occasional co-working spaces in Kings Cross) or flexible hybrid. #AndroidDev
