Definición de compatibilidad con Android 13

1. Introducción

Este documento enumera los requisitos que se deben cumplir para que los dispositivos sean compatibles con Android 13.

El uso de "DEBE", "NO DEBE", "REQUERIDO", "DEBE", "NO DEBE", "DEBE", "NO DEBE", "RECOMENDADO", "PUEDE" y "OPCIONAL" es según el IETF. estándar definido en RFC2119 .

Tal como se utiliza en este documento, un "implementador de dispositivo" o "implementador" es una persona u organización que desarrolla una solución de hardware/software que ejecuta Android 13. Una "implementación de dispositivo" o "implementación" es la solución de hardware/software así desarrollada.

Para ser considerada compatible con Android 13, las implementaciones de dispositivos DEBEN cumplir con los requisitos presentados en esta Definición de compatibilidad, incluido cualquier documento incorporado mediante referencia.

Cuando esta definición o las pruebas de software descritas en la sección 10 no dicen nada, son ambiguas o están incompletas, es responsabilidad del implementador del dispositivo garantizar la compatibilidad con las implementaciones existentes.

Por esta razón, el Proyecto de Código Abierto de Android es a la vez la implementación de referencia y preferida de Android. Se RECOMIENDA ENCARECIDAMENTE a los implementadores de dispositivos que basen sus implementaciones en la mayor medida posible en el código fuente "ascendente" disponible en el Proyecto de código abierto de Android. Si bien hipotéticamente algunos componentes pueden reemplazarse con implementaciones alternativas, se RECOMIENDA ENCARECIDAMENTE no seguir esta práctica, ya que pasar las pruebas de software será sustancialmente más difícil. Es responsabilidad del implementador garantizar la compatibilidad total del comportamiento con la implementación estándar de Android, incluido y más allá del Compatibility Test Suite. Finalmente, tenga en cuenta que este documento prohíbe explícitamente ciertas sustituciones y modificaciones de componentes.

Muchos de los recursos vinculados en este documento se derivan directa o indirectamente del SDK de Android y serán funcionalmente idénticos a la información contenida en la documentación de ese SDK. En cualquier caso en el que esta Definición de compatibilidad o el Conjunto de pruebas de compatibilidad no estén de acuerdo con la documentación del SDK, la documentación del SDK se considera autorizada. Cualquier detalle técnico proporcionado en los recursos vinculados a lo largo de este documento se considera por inclusión parte de esta Definición de compatibilidad.

1.1 Estructura del documento

1.1.1. Requisitos por tipo de dispositivo

La Sección 2 contiene todos los requisitos que se aplican a un tipo de dispositivo específico. Cada subsección de la Sección 2 está dedicada a un tipo de dispositivo específico.

Todos los demás requisitos, que se aplican universalmente a cualquier implementación de dispositivo Android, se enumeran en las secciones posteriores a la Sección 2 . Estos requisitos se denominan "Requisitos básicos" en este documento.

1.1.2. ID de requisito

El ID de requisito se asigna a los requisitos MUST.

  • Cuando el requisito es condicional, se asigna 1 para la primera condición y el número aumenta en 1 dentro de la misma sección y el mismo tipo de dispositivo.
• ID de requisito
  • Este ID comienza desde 1 y aumenta en 1 dentro de la misma sección y la misma condición.

1.1.3. ID de requisito en la Sección 2

Los ID de requisitos de la Sección 2 tienen dos partes. El primero corresponde a un ID de sección como se describe anteriormente. La segunda parte identifica el factor de forma y el requisito específico del factor de forma.

ID de sección seguido por el ID de requisito descrito anteriormente.

• El ID de la Sección 2 consta de: ID de sección/ID de tipo de dispositivo - ID de condición - ID de requisito (por ejemplo, 7.4.3/A-0-1).

2. Tipos de dispositivos

El Proyecto de código abierto de Android proporciona una pila de software que se puede utilizar para una variedad de tipos de dispositivos y factores de forma. Para respaldar la seguridad en los dispositivos, se espera que la pila de software, incluido cualquier sistema operativo de reemplazo o una implementación de kernel alternativa, se ejecute en un entorno seguro como se describe en la sección 9 y en otras partes de este CDD. Hay algunos tipos de dispositivos que tienen un ecosistema de distribución de aplicaciones relativamente mejor establecido.

Automotive device implementations:

• [ 8.2 /A-0-1] MUST report the number of bytes read and written to non-volatile storage per each process's UID so the stats are available to developers through System API android.car.storagemonitoring.CarStorageMonitoringManager . The Android Open Source Project meets the requirement through the uid_sys_stats kernel module.
• [ 8.3 /A-1-3] MUST support Garage Mode .

• [ 8.4 /A-0-4] MUST make this power usage available via the adb shell dumpsys batterystats shell command to the app developer.

2.5.5. Modelo de seguridad

If Automotive device implementations support multiple users, they:

• [ 9.5 /A-1-1] MUST NOT allow users to interact with nor switch into the Headless System User , except for device provisioning .
• [ 9.5 /A-1-2] MUST switch into a Secondary User before BOOT_COMPLETED .
• [ 9.5 /A-1-3] MUST support the ability to create a Guest User even when the maximum number of Users on a device has been reached.

If Automotive device implementations declare android.hardware.camera.any , then they:

• [ 9.8.2 /A-2-1] MUST display the camera indicator when an app is accessing live camera data, but not when the camera is only being accessed by app(s) holding the roles called out in Section 9.1 Permissions with CDD identifier [C-3-X].
• [ 9.8.2 /A-2-2] MUST not hide the camera indicator for system apps that have visible user interfaces or direct user interaction.

Automotive device implementations:

• [ 9.11 /A-0-1] MUST back up the keystore implementation with an isolated execution environment.
• [ 9.11 /A-0-2] MUST have implementations of RSA, AES, ECDSA and HMAC cryptographic algorithms and MD5, SHA1, and SHA-2 family hash functions to properly support the Android Keystore system's supported algorithms in an area that is securely isolated from the code running on the kernel and above. Secure isolation MUST block all potential mechanisms by which kernel or userspace code might access the internal state of the isolated environment, including DMA. The upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) meets this requirement by using the Trusty implementation, but another ARM TrustZone-based solution or a third-party reviewed secure implementation of a proper hypervisor-based isolation are alternative options.
• [ 9.11 /A-0-3] MUST perform the lock screen authentication in the isolated execution environment and only when successful, allow the authentication-bound keys to be used. Lock screen credentials MUST be stored in a way that allows only the isolated execution environment to perform lock screen authentication. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides the Gatekeeper Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and Trusty, which can be used to satisfy this requirement.
• [ 9.11 /A-0-4] MUST support key attestation where the attestation signing key is protected by secure hardware and signing is performed in secure hardware. The attestation signing keys MUST be shared across large enough number of devices to prevent the keys from being used as device identifiers. One way of meeting this requirement is to share the same attestation key unless at least 100,000 units of a given SKU are produced. If more than 100,000 units of an SKU are produced, a different key MAY be used for each 100,000 units.
• [9/A-0-1] MUST declare the 'android.hardware.security.model.compatible' feature.

Note that if a device implementation is already launched on an earlier Android version, such a device is exempted from the requirement to have a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment and support the key attestation, unless it declares the android.hardware.fingerprint feature which requires a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment.

Automotive device implementations:

• [ 9.14 /A-0-1] MUST gatekeep messages from Android framework vehicle subsystems, eg, allowlisting permitted message types and message sources.
• [ 9.14 /A-0-2] MUST watchdog against denial of service attacks from the Android framework or third-party apps. This guards against malicious software flooding the vehicle network with traffic, which may lead to malfunctioning vehicle subsystems.

• Physical keyboard implementations used with the device connect by means of a standard connection (eg USB, Bluetooth).
• Has a power source that provides mobility, such as a battery.
• Has a screen display size greater than 7” and less than 18", measured diagonally.

Tablet device implementations have similar requirements to handheld device implementations. The exceptions are indicated by an * in that section and noted for reference in this section.

2.6.1. Hardware

Giroscopio

If Tablet device implementations include a 3-axis gyroscope, they:

• [ 7.3 .4/Tab-1-1] MUST be capable of measuring orientation changes up to 1000 degrees per second.

Minimum Memory and Storage (Section 7.6.1)

The screen densities listed for small/normal screens in the handheld requirements are not applicable to tablets.

USB peripheral mode (Section 7.7.1)

If tablet device implementations include a USB port supporting peripheral mode, they:

• [ 7.7.1 /Tab] MAY implement the Android Open Accessory (AOA) API.

Virtual Reality Mode (Section 7.9.1)

Virtual Reality High Performance (Section 7.9.2)

Virtual reality requirements are not applicable to tablets.

2.6.2. Modelo de seguridad

Keys and Credentials (Section 9.11)

Refer to Section [ 9.11 ].

If Tablet device implementations include multiple users and do not declare the android.hardware.telephony feature flag, they:

• [ 9.5 /T-1-1] MUST support restricted profiles, a feature that allows device owners to manage additional users and their capabilities on the device. With restricted profiles, device owners can quickly set up separate environments for additional users to work in, with the ability to manage finer-grained restrictions in the apps that are available in those environments.

If Tablet device implementations include multiple users and declare the android.hardware.telephony feature flag, they:

• [ 9.5 /T-2-1] MUST NOT support restricted profiles but MUST align with the AOSP implementation of controls to enable /disable other users from accessing the voice calls and SMS.

2.6.2. Software

• [ 3.2.3.1 /Tab-0-1] MUST preload one or more applications or service components with an intent handler, for all the public intent filter patterns defined by the following application intents listed here .

3.software

3.1. Managed API Compatibility

The managed Dalvik bytecode execution environment is the primary vehicle for Android applications. The Android application programming interface (API) is the set of Android platform interfaces exposed to applications running in the managed runtime environment.

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST provide complete implementations, including all documented behaviors, of any documented API exposed by the Android SDK or any API decorated with the “@SystemApi” marker in the upstream Android source code.

• [C-0-2] MUST support/preserve all classes, methods, and associated elements marked by the TestApi annotation (@TestApi).

• [C-0-3] MUST NOT omit any managed APIs, alter API interfaces or signatures, deviate from the documented behavior, or include no-ops, except where specifically allowed by this Compatibility Definition.

• [C-0-4] MUST still keep the APIs present and behave in a reasonable way, even when some hardware features for which Android includes APIs are omitted. See section 7 for specific requirements for this scenario.

• [C-0-5] MUST NOT allow third-party apps to use non-SDK interfaces, which are defined as methods and fields in the Java language packages that are in the boot classpath in AOSP, and that do not form part of the public SDK. This includes APIs decorated with the @hide annotation but not with a @SystemAPI , as described in the SDK documents and private and package-private class members.

• [C-0-6] MUST ship with each and every non-SDK interface on the same restricted lists as provided via the provisional and denylist flags in prebuilts/runtime/appcompat/hiddenapi-flags.csv path for the appropriate API level branch in the AOSP.

• [C-0-7] MUST support the signed config dynamic update mechanism to remove non-SDK interfaces from a restricted list by embedding signed configuration in any APK, using the existing public keys present in AOSP.

  However they:

  • MAY, if a hidden API is absent or implemented differently on the device implementation, move the hidden API into the denylist or omit it from all restricted lists.
  • MAY, if a hidden API does not already exist in the AOSP, add the hidden API to any of the restricted lists.

3.1.1. Android Extensions

Android supports extending the managed API surface of a particular API level by updating the extension version for that API level. The android.os.ext.SdkExtensions.getExtensionVersion(int apiLevel) API returns the extension version of the provided apiLevel , if there are extensions for that API level.

Android device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST preload the AOSP implementation of both the shared library ExtShared and services ExtServices with versions greater than or equal to the minimum versions allowed per each API level. For example, Android 7.0 device implementations, running API level 24 MUST include at least version 1.

• [C-0-2] MUST only return valid extension version number that have been defined by the AOSP.

• [C-0-3] MUST support all the APIs defined by the extension versions returned by android.os.ext.SdkExtensions.getExtensionVersion(int apiLevel) in the same manner as other managed APIs are supported, following the requirements in section 3.1 .

3.1.2. Biblioteca de Android

Due to Apache HTTP client deprecation , device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT place the org.apache.http.legacy library in the bootclasspath.
• [C-0-2] MUST add the org.apache.http.legacy library to the application classpath only when the app satisfies one of the following conditions:
  • Targets API level 28 or lower.
  • Declares in its manifest that it needs the library by setting the android:name attribute of <uses-library> to org.apache.http.legacy .

The AOSP implementation meets these requirements.

3.2. Soft API Compatibility

In addition to the managed APIs from section 3.1 , Android also includes a significant runtime-only “soft” API, in the form of such things as intents, permissions, and similar aspects of Android applications that cannot be enforced at application compile time.

3.2.1. Permisos

• [C-0-1] Device implementers MUST support and enforce all permission constants as documented by the Permission reference page . Note that section 9 lists additional requirements related to the Android security model.

3.2.2. Parámetros de construcción

The Android APIs include a number of constants on the android.os.Build class that are intended to describe the current device.

• [C-0-1] To provide consistent, meaningful values across device implementations, the table below includes additional restrictions on the formats of these values to which device implementations MUST conform.

3.2.3. Intent Compatibility

3.2.3.1. Common Application Intents

Android intents allow application components to request functionality from other Android components. The Android upstream project includes a list of applications which implement several intent patterns to perform common actions.

Device implementations:

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to preload one or more applications or service components with an intent handler, for all the public intent filter patterns defined by the following application intents listed here and provide fulfillment ie meet with the developer expectation for these common application intents as described in the SDK.

Please refer to Section 2 for mandatory application intents for each device type.

3.2.3.2. Resolución de intención

• [C-0-1] As Android is an extensible platform, device implementations MUST allow each intent pattern referenced in section 3.2.3.1 , except for Settings, to be overridden by third-party applications. The upstream Android open source implementation allows this by default.

• [C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT attach special privileges to system applications' use of these intent patterns, or prevent third-party applications from binding to and assuming control of these patterns. This prohibition specifically includes but is not limited to disabling the “Chooser” user interface that allows the user to select between multiple applications that all handle the same intent pattern.

• [C-0-3] Device implementations MUST provide a user interface for users to modify the default activity for intents.

• However, device implementations MAY provide default activities for specific URI patterns (eg http://play.google.com) when the default activity provides a more specific attribute for the data URI. For example, an intent filter pattern specifying the data URI “http://www.android.com” is more specific than the browser's core intent pattern for “http://”.

Android also includes a mechanism for third-party apps to declare an authoritative default app linking behavior for certain types of web URI intents. When such authoritative declarations are defined in an app's intent filter patterns, device implementations:

• [C-0-4] MUST attempt to validate any intent filters by performing the validation steps defined in the Digital Asset Links specification as implemented by the Package Manager in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
• [C-0-5] MUST attempt validation of the intent filters during the installation of the application and set all successfully validated URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs.
• MAY set specific URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs, if they are successfully verified but other candidate URI filters fail verification. If a device implementation does this, it MUST provide the user appropriate per-URI pattern overrides in the settings menu.
• MUST provide the user with per-app App Links controls in Settings as follows:
  • [C-0-6] The user MUST be able to override holistically the default app links behavior for an app to be: always open, always ask, or never open, which must apply to all candidate URI intent filters equally.
  • [C-0-7] The user MUST be able to see a list of the candidate URI intent filters.
  • The device implementation MAY provide the user with the ability to override specific candidate URI intent filters that were successfully verified, on a per-intent filter basis.
  • [C-0-8] The device implementation MUST provide users with the ability to view and override specific candidate URI intent filters if the device implementation lets some candidate URI intent filters succeed verification while some others can fail.

3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces

• [C-0-1] Device implementations MUST NOT include any Android component that honors any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in the android.* or com.android.* namespace.
• [C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT include any Android components that honor any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in a package space belonging to another organization.
• [C-0-3] Device implementers MUST NOT alter or extend any of the intent patterns listed in section 3.2.3.1 .
• Device implementations MAY include intent patterns using namespaces clearly and obviously associated with their own organization. This prohibition is analogous to that specified for Java language classes in section 3.6 .

3.2.3.4. Intenciones de transmisión

Third-party applications rely on the platform to broadcast certain intents to notify them of changes in the hardware or software environment.

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST broadcast the public broadcast intents listed here in response to appropriate system events as described in the SDK documentation. Note that this requirement is not conflicting with section 3.5 as the limitation for background applications are also described in the SDK documentation. Also certain broadcast intents are conditional upon hardware support, if the device supports the necessary hardware they MUST broadcast the intents and provide the behavior inline with SDK documentation.

3.2.3.5. Conditional Application Intents

Android includes settings that provide users an easy way to select their default applications, for example for Home screen or SMS.

Where it makes sense, device implementations MUST provide a similar settings menu and be compatible with the intent filter pattern and API methods described in the SDK documentation as below.

If device implementations report android.software.home_screen , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST honor the android.settings.HOME_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for Home Screen.

If device implementations report android.hardware.telephony.calling, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST provide a settings menu that will call the android.provider.Telephony.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT intent to show a dialog to change the default SMS application.

• [C-2-2] MUST honor the android.telecom.action.CHANGE_DEFAULT_DIALER intent to show a dialog to allow the user to change the default Phone application.

  • MUST use the user-selected default Phone app's UI for incoming and outgoing calls except for emergency calls, which would use the preinstalled Phone app.

• [C-2-3] MUST honor the android.telecom.action.CHANGE_PHONE_ACCOUNTS intent to provide user affordance to configure the ConnectionServices associated with the PhoneAccounts , as well as a default PhoneAccount that the telecommunications service provider will use to place outgoing calls. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by including a "Calling Accounts option" menu within the "Calls" settings menu.

• [C-2-4] MUST allow android.telecom.CallRedirectionService for an app that holds the android.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION role.

• [C-2-5] MUST provide the user affordance to choose an app that holds the android.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION role.

• [C-2-6] MUST honor the android.intent.action.SENDTO and android.intent.action.VIEW intents and provide an activity to send/display SMS messages.

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to honor android.intent.action.ANSWER , android.intent.action.CALL , android.intent.action.CALL_BUTTON , android.intent.action.VIEW & android.intent.action.DIAL intents with a preloaded dialer application which can handle these intents and provide fulfillment as described in the SDK.

If device implementations report android.hardware.nfc.hce , they:

• [C-3-1] MUST honor the android.settings.NFC_PAYMENT_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for Contactless payment.
• [C-3-2] MUST honor android.nfc.cardemulation.action.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT intent to show an activity which opens a dialog to ask the user to change the default card emulation service for a certain category as described in the SDK.

If device implementations report android.hardware.nfc , they:

• [C-4-1] MUST honor these intents android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED , android.nfc.action.TAG_DISCOVERED & android.nfc.action.TECH_DISCOVERED , to show an activity which fulfils developer expectations for these intents as described in the SDK.

If device implementations report android.hardware.bluetooth , they:

• [C-5-1] MUST honor the 'android.bluetooth.adapter.action.REQUEST_ENABLE' intent and show a system activity to allow the user to turn on Bluetooth.
• [C-5-2] MUST honor the 'android.bluetooth.adapter.action.REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE' intent and show a system activity that requests discoverable mode.

If device implementations support the DND feature, they:

• [C-6-1] MUST implement an activity that would respond to the intent ACTION_NOTIFICATION_POLICY_ACCESS_SETTINGS , which for implementations with UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL it MUST be an activity where the user can grant or deny the app access to DND policy configurations.

If device implementations allow users to use third-party input methods on the device, they:

• [C-7-1] MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism to add and configure third-party input methods in response to the android.settings.INPUT_METHOD_SETTINGS intent.

If device implementations support third-party accessibility services, they:

• [C-8-1] MUST honor the android.settings.ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS intent to provide a user-accessible mechanism to enable and disable the third-party accessibility services alongside the preloaded accessibility services.

If device implementations include support for Wi-Fi Easy Connect and expose the functionality to third-party apps, they:

• [C-9-1] MUST implement the Settings#ACTION_PROCESS_WIFI_EASY_CONNECT_URI Intent APIs as described in the SDK documentation.

If device implementations provide the data saver mode, they: * [C-10-1] MUST provide a user interface in the settings, that handles the Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BACKGROUND_DATA_RESTRICTIONS_SETTINGS intent, allowing users to add applications to or remove applications from the allow list.

If device implementations do not provide the data saver mode, they:

• [C-11-1] MUST have an activity that handles the Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BACKGROUND_DATA_RESTRICTIONS_SETTINGS intent but MAY implement it as a no-op.

If device implementations declare support for the camera via android.hardware.camera.any , they:

• [C-12-3] MUST handle and MUST only allow preinstalled Android applications to handle the following intents MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE , MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE_SECURE , and MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE as described in the SDK document .

If device implementations report android.software.device_admin , they:

• [C-13-1] MUST honor the intent android.app.action.ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN to invoke a UI to bring the user through adding the device administrator to the system (or allowing them to reject it).

• [C-13-2] MUST honor the intents android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE , android.app.action.SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD , android.app.action.SET_NEW_PASSWORD & android.app.action.START_ENCRYPTION and have an activity to provide fulfillment for these intents as described in SDK here .

If device implementations declare the android.software.autofill feature flag, they:

• [C-14-1] MUST fully implement the AutofillService and AutofillManager APIs and honor the android.settings.REQUEST_SET_AUTOFILL_SERVICE intent to show a default app settings menu to enable and disable autofill and change the default autofill service for the user.

If device implementations include a pre-installed app or wish to allow third-party apps to access the usage statistics, they:

• [C-SR-2] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED provide user-accessible mechanism to grant or revoke access to the usage stats in response to the android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS intent for apps that declare the android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS permission.

If device implementations intend to disallow any apps, including pre-installed apps, from accessing the usage statistics, they:

• [C-15-1] MUST still have an activity that handles the android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS intent pattern but MUST implement it as a no-op, that is to have an equivalent behavior as when the user is declined for access.

If device implementations surface links to the activities specified by AutofillService_passwordsActivity in Settings or links to user passwords through a similar mechanism, they:

• [C-16-1] MUST surface such links for all installed autofill services.

• [C-17-1] [Moved to 2.2.3]

If device implementations support the VoiceInteractionService and have more than one application using this API installed at a time, they:

• [C-18-1] MUST honor the android.settings.ACTION_VOICE_INPUT_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for voice input and assist.

If device implementations report the feature android.hardware.audio.output , they:

• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to honor android.intent.action.TTS_SERVICE, android.speech.tts.engine.INSTALL_TTS_DATA & android.speech.tts.engine.GET_SAMPLE_TEXT intents have an activity to provide fulfillment for these intents as described in SDK here .

Android includes support for interactive screensavers, previously referred to as Dreams. Screen Savers allow users to interact with applications when a device connected to a power source is idle or docked in a desk dock. Device Implementations:

• SHOULD include support for screen savers and provide a settings option for users to configure screen savers in response to the android.settings.DREAM_SETTINGS intent.

3.2.4. Activities on secondary/multiple displays

If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on more than one display, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST set the android.software.activities_on_secondary_displays feature flag.
• [C-1-2] MUST guarantee API compatibility similar to an activity running on the primary display.
• [C-1-3] MUST land the new activity on the same display as the activity that launched it, when the new activity is launched without specifying a target display via the ActivityOptions.setLaunchDisplayId() API.
• [C-1-4] MUST destroy all activities, when a display with the Display.FLAG_PRIVATE flag is removed.
• [C-1-5] MUST securely hide content on all screens when the device is locked with a secure lock screen, unless the app opts in to show on top of lock screen using Activity#setShowWhenLocked() API.
• SHOULD have android.content.res.Configuration which corresponds to that display in order to be displayed, operate correctly, and maintain compatibility if an activity is launched on secondary display.

If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on secondary displays and a secondary display has the android.view.Display.FLAG_PRIVATE flag:

• [C-3-1] Only the owner of that display, system, and activities that are already on that display MUST be able to launch to it. Everyone can launch to a display that has android.view.Display.FLAG_PUBLIC flag.

3.3. Native API Compatibility

Native code compatibility is challenging. For this reason, device implementers are:

• [C-SR-1] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the implementations of the libraries listed below from the upstream Android Open Source Project.

3.3.1. Application Binary Interfaces

Managed Dalvik bytecode can call into native code provided in the application .apk file as an ELF .so file compiled for the appropriate device hardware architecture. As native code is highly dependent on the underlying processor technology, Android defines a number of Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs) in the Android NDK.

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST be compatible with one or more defined Android NDK ABIs .
• [C-0-2] MUST include support for code running in the managed environment to call into native code, using the standard Java Native Interface (JNI) semantics.
• [C-0-3] MUST be source-compatible (ie header-compatible) and binary-compatible (for the ABI) with each required library in the list below.
• [C-0-5] MUST accurately report the native Application Binary Interface (ABI) supported by the device, via the android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_ABIS , android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_32_BIT_ABIS , and android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_64_BIT_ABIS parameters, each a comma separated list of ABIs ordered from the most to the least preferred one.

• [C-0-6] MUST report, via the above parameters, a subset of the following list of ABIs and MUST NOT report any ABI not on the list.

  • armeabi (no longer supported as a target by the NDK)
  • armeabi-v7a
  • arm64-v8a
  • x86
  • x86-64

• [C-0-7] MUST make all the following libraries, providing native APIs, available to apps that include native code:

  • libaaudio.so (AAudio native audio support)
  • libamidi.so (native MIDI support, if feature android.software.midi is claimed as described in Section 5.9)
  • libandroid.so (native Android activity support)
  • libc (C library)
  • libcamera2ndk.so
  • libdl (dynamic linker)
  • libEGL.so (native OpenGL surface management)
  • libGLESv1_CM.so (OpenGL ES 1.x)
  • libGLESv2.so (OpenGL ES 2.0)
  • libGLESv3.so (OpenGL ES 3.x)
  • libicui18n.so
  • libicuuc.so
  • libjnigraphics.so
  • liblog (Android logging)
  • libmediandk.so (native media APIs support)
  • libm (math library)
  • libneuralnetworks.so (Neural Networks API)
  • libOpenMAXAL.so (OpenMAX AL 1.0.1 support)
  • libOpenSLES.so (OpenSL ES 1.0.1 audio support)
  • libRS.so
  • libstdc++ (Minimal support for C++)
  • libvulkan.so (Vulkan)
  • libz (Zlib compression)
  • JNI interface

• [C-0-8] MUST NOT add or remove the public functions for the native libraries listed above.

• [C-0-9] MUST list additional non-AOSP libraries exposed directly to third-party apps in /vendor/etc/public.libraries.txt .

• [C-0-10] MUST NOT expose any other native libraries, implemented and provided in AOSP as system libraries, to third-party apps targeting API level 24 or higher as they are reserved.

• [C-0-11] MUST export all the OpenGL ES 3.1 and Android Extension Pack function symbols, as defined in the NDK, through the libGLESv3.so library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.1 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected.

• [C-0-12] MUST export function symbols for the core Vulkan 1.0 function symbols, as well as the VK_KHR_surface , VK_KHR_android_surface , VK_KHR_swapchain , VK_KHR_maintenance1 , and VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2 extensions through the libvulkan.so library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.2 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected.

• SHOULD be built using the source code and header files available in the upstream Android Open Source Project

Note that future releases of Android may introduce support for additional ABIs.

3.3.2. 32-bit ARM Native Code Compatibility

If device implementations report the support of the armeabi ABI, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST also support armeabi-v7a and report its support, as armeabi is only for backwards compatibility with older apps.

If device implementations report the support of the armeabi-v7a ABI, for apps using this ABI, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST include the following lines in /proc/cpuinfo , and SHOULD NOT alter the values on the same device, even when they are read by other ABIs.

  • Features: , followed by a list of any optional ARMv7 CPU features supported by the device.
  • CPU architecture: , followed by an integer describing the device's highest supported ARM architecture (eg, "8" for ARMv8 devices).

• [C-2-2] MUST always keep the following operations available, even in the case where the ABI is implemented on an ARMv8 architecture, either through native CPU support or through software emulation:

  • SWP and SWPB instructions.
  • CP15ISB, CP15DSB, and CP15DMB barrier operations.

• [C-2-3] MUST include support for the Advanced SIMD (aka NEON) extension.

3.4. Web Compatibility

3.4.1. WebView Compatibility

If device implementations provide a complete implementation of the android.webkit.Webview API, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report android.software.webview .
• [C-1-2] MUST use the Chromium Project build from the upstream Android Open Source Project on the Android 13 branch for the implementation of the android.webkit.WebView API.

• [C-1-3] The user agent string reported by the WebView MUST be in this format:

  Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); [$(MODEL)] [Build/$(BUILD)]; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 $(CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile Safari/537.36

  • The value of the $(VERSION) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.VERSION.RELEASE.
  • The $(MODEL) string MAY be empty, but if it is not empty it MUST have the same value as android.os.Build.MODEL.
  • "Build/$(BUILD)" MAY be omitted, but if it is present the $(BUILD) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.ID.
  • The value of the $(CHROMIUM_VER) string MUST be the version of Chromium in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
  • Device implementations MAY omit Mobile in the user agent string.

• The WebView component SHOULD include support for as many HTML5 features as possible and if it supports the feature SHOULD conform to the HTML5 specification .

• [C-1-4] MUST render the provided content or remote URL content in a process that is distinct from the application that instantiates the WebView. Specifically the separate renderer process MUST hold lower privilege, run as a separate user ID, have no access to the app's data directory, have no direct network access, and only have access to the minimum-required system services over Binder. The AOSP implementation of WebView meets this requirement.

Note that if device implementations are 32-bit or declare the feature flag android.hardware.ram.low , they are exempted from C-1-3.

3.4.2. Compatibilidad del navegador

If device implementations include a standalone Browser application for general web browsing, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support each of these APIs associated with HTML5:
  • application cache/offline operation
  • <video> tag
  • geolocalización
• [C-1-2] MUST support the HTML5/W3C webstorage API and SHOULD support the HTML5/W3C IndexedDB API . Note that as the web development standards bodies are transitioning to favor IndexedDB over webstorage, IndexedDB is expected to become a required component in a future version of Android.
• MAY ship a custom user agent string in the standalone Browser application.
• SHOULD implement support for as much of HTML5 as possible on the standalone Browser application (whether based on the upstream WebKit Browser application or a third-party replacement).

However, If device implementations do not include a standalone Browser application, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST still support the public intent patterns as described in section 3.2.3.1 .

3.5. API Behavioral Compatibility

Device implementations:

• [C-0-9] MUST ensure that API behavioral compatibility is applied for all installed apps unless they are restricted as described in Section 3.5.1 .
• [C-0-10] MUST NOT implement the allowlisting approach that ensures API behavioral compatibility only for apps that are selected by device implementers.

The behaviors of each of the API types (managed, soft, native, and web) must be consistent with the preferred implementation of the upstream Android Open Source Project . Some specific areas of compatibility are:

• [C-0-1] Devices MUST NOT change the behavior or semantics of a standard intent.
• [C-0-2] Devices MUST NOT alter the lifecycle or lifecycle semantics of a particular type of system component (such as Service, Activity, ContentProvider, etc.).
• [C-0-3] Devices MUST NOT change the semantics of a standard permission.
• Devices MUST NOT alter the limitations enforced on background applications. More specifically, for background apps:
  • [C-0-4] they MUST stop executing callbacks that are registered by the app to receive outputs from the GnssMeasurement and GnssNavigationMessage .
  • [C-0-5] they MUST rate-limit the frequency of updates that are provided to the app through the LocationManager API class or the WifiManager.startScan() method.
  • [C-0-6] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST NOT allow to register broadcast receivers for the implicit broadcasts of standard Android intents in the app's manifest, unless the broadcast intent requires a "signature" or "signatureOrSystem" protectionLevel permission or are on the exemption list .
  • [C-0-7] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST stop the app's background services, just as if the app had called the services' stopSelf() method, unless the app is placed on a temporary allowlist to handle a task that's visible to the user.
  • [C-0-8] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST release the wakelocks the app holds.
• [C-0-11] Devices MUST return the following security providers as the first seven array values from the Security.getProviders() method, in the given order and with the given names (as returned by Provider.getName() ) and classes, unless the app has modified the list via insertProviderAt() or removeProvider() . Devices MAY return additional providers after the specified list of providers below.
  1. AndroidNSSP - android.security.net.config.NetworkSecurityConfigProvider
  2. AndroidOpenSSL - com.android.org.conscrypt.OpenSSLProvider
  3. CertPathProvider - sun.security.provider.CertPathProvider
  4. AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaround - android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaroundProvider
  5. BC - com.android.org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider
  6. HarmonyJSSE - com.android.org.conscrypt.JSSEProvider
  7. AndroidKeyStore - android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreProvider

La lista anterior no es exhaustiva. The Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) tests significant portions of the platform for behavioral compatibility, but not all. It is the responsibility of the implementer to ensure behavioral compatibility with the Android Open Source Project. For this reason, device implementers SHOULD use the source code available via the Android Open Source Project where possible, rather than re-implement significant parts of the system.

3.5.1. Application Restriction

If device implementations implement a proprietary mechanism to restrict apps (eg changing or restricting API behaviors that are described in the SDK) and that mechanism is more restrictive than the Restricted App Standby Bucket , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST allow the user to see the list of restricted apps.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide user affordance to turn on / off all of these proprietary restrictions on each app.

• [C-1-3] MUST not automatically apply these proprietary restrictions without evidence of poor system health behavior, but MAY apply the restrictions on apps upon detection of poor system health behavior like stuck wakelocks, long running services, and other criteria. The criteria MAY be determined by device implementers but MUST be related to the app's impact on the system health. Other criteria that are not purely related to the system health, such as the app's lack of popularity in the market, MUST NOT be used as criteria.

• [C-1-4] MUST not automatically apply these proprietary restrictions for apps when a user has turned off app restrictions manually, and MAY suggest the user to apply these proprietary restrictions.

• [C-1-5] MUST inform users if these proprietary restrictions are applied to an app automatically. Such information MUST be provided in the 24-hour period preceding the application of these proprietary restrictions.

• [C-1-6] MUST return true for the ActivityManager.isBackgroundRestricted() method for any API calls from an app.

• [C-1-7] MUST NOT restrict the top foreground app that is explicitly used by the user.

• [C-1-8] MUST suspend these proprietary restrictions on an app whenever a user starts to explicitly use the app, making it the top foreground application.

• [C-1-10] MUST provide a public and clear document or website that describes how proprietary restrictions are applied. This document or website MUST be linkable from the Android SDK documents and MUST include:

  • Triggering conditions for proprietary restrictions.
  • What and how an app can be restricted.
  • How an app can be exempted from such restrictions.
  • How an app can request an exemption from proprietary restrictions, if they support such an exemption for apps the user can install.

If an app is pre-installed on the device and has never been explicitly used by a user for more than 30 days, [C-1-3] [C-1-5] are exempted.

If device implementations extend the app restrictions that are implemented in AOSP, they:

• [C-2-1]MUST follow the implementation described in this document .

3.5.2. Application Hibernation

If device implementations include App Hibernation that is included in AOSP or extends the feature that is included in AOSP, then they:

• [C-1-1] MUST meet all the requirements in section 3.5.1 except for [C-1-6] and [C-1-3].
• [C-1-2] MUST only apply the restriction on the app for a user when there is evidence that the user has not used the app for some period of time. This duration is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be one month or longer. Usage MUST be defined by either explicit user interaction via the UsageStats#getLastTimeVisible() API or anything that would cause an app to leave the force-stopped state, including service bindings, content provider bindings, explicit broadcasts, etc., which will be tracked by a new API UsageStats#getLastTimeAnyComponentUsed().
• [C-1-3] MUST only apply restrictions affecting all device users when there is evidence that the package has not been used by ANY user for some period of time. This duration is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be one month or longer.
• [C-1-4] MUST NOT render the app unable to respond to activity intents, service bindings, content provider requests, or explicit broadcasts.

App Hibernation in AOSP meets the above requirements.

3.6. API Namespaces

Android follows the package and class namespace conventions defined by the Java programming language. To ensure compatibility with third-party applications, device implementers MUST NOT make any prohibited modifications (see below) to these package namespaces:

• java.*
• javax.*
• sun.*
• android.*
• androidx.*
• com.android.*

That is, they:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT modify the publicly exposed APIs on the Android platform by changing any method or class signatures, or by removing classes or class fields.
• [C-0-2] MUST NOT add any publicly exposed elements (such as classes or interfaces, or fields or methods to existing classes or interfaces) or Test or System APIs to the APIs in the above namespaces. A "publicly exposed element" is any construct that is not decorated with the "@hide" marker as used in the upstream Android source code.

Device implementers MAY modify the underlying implementation of the APIs, but such modifications:

• [C-0-3] MUST NOT impact the stated behavior and Java-language signature of any publicly exposed APIs.
• [C-0-4] MUST NOT be advertised or otherwise exposed to developers.

However, device implementers MAY add custom APIs outside the standard Android namespace, but the custom APIs:

• [C-0-5] MUST NOT be in a namespace owned by or referring to another organization. For instance, device implementers MUST NOT add APIs to the com.google.* or similar namespace: only Google may do so. Similarly, Google MUST NOT add APIs to other companies' namespaces.
• [C-0-6] MUST be packaged in an Android shared library so that only apps that explicitly use them (via the <uses-library> mechanism) are affected by the increased memory usage of such APIs.

Device implementers MAY add custom APIs in native languages, outside of the NDK APIs, but the custom APIs:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT be in a NDK library or a library owned by another organization as described here .

If a device implementer proposes to improve one of the package namespaces above (such as by adding useful new functionality to an existing API, or adding a new API), the implementer SHOULD visit source.android.com and begin the process for contributing changes and code, according to the information on that site.

Note that the restrictions above correspond to standard conventions for naming APIs in the Java programming language; this section simply aims to reinforce those conventions and make them binding through inclusion in this Compatibility Definition.

3.7. Runtime Compatibility

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST support the full Dalvik Executable (DEX) format and Dalvik bytecode specification and semantics .

• [C-0-2] MUST configure Dalvik runtimes to allocate memory in accordance with the upstream Android platform, and as specified by the following table. (See section 7.1.1 for screen size and screen density definitions.)

• SHOULD use Android RunTime (ART), the reference upstream implementation of the Dalvik Executable Format, and the reference implementation's package management system.

• SHOULD run fuzz tests under various modes of execution and target architectures to assure the stability of the runtime. Refer to JFuzz and DexFuzz in the Android Open Source Project website.

Note that memory values specified below are considered minimum values and device implementations MAY allocate more memory per application.

3.8. User Interface Compatibility

3.8.1. Launcher (Home Screen)

Android includes a launcher application (home screen) and support for third-party applications to replace the device launcher (home screen).

If device implementations allow third-party applications to replace the device home screen, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature android.software.home_screen .
• [C-1-2] MUST return the AdaptiveIconDrawable object when the third-party application use <adaptive-icon> tag to provide their icon, and the PackageManager methods to retrieve icons are called.

If device implementations include a default launcher that supports in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report true for ShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported() .
• [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the ShortcutManager.requestPinShortcut() API method.
• [C-2-3] MUST support pinned shortcuts and dynamic and static shortcuts as documented on the App Shortcuts page .

Conversely, if device implementations do not support in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST report false for ShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported() .

If device implementations implement a default launcher that provides quick access to the additional shortcuts provided by third-party apps through the ShortcutManager API, they:

• [C-4-1] MUST support all documented shortcut features (eg static and dynamic shortcuts, pinning shortcuts) and fully implement the APIs of the ShortcutManager API class.

If device implementations include a default launcher app that shows badges for the app icons, they:

• [C-5-1] MUST respect the NotificationChannel.setShowBadge() API method. In other words, show a visual affordance associated with the app icon if the value is set as true , and do not show any app icon badging scheme when all of the app's notification channels have set the value as false .
• MAY override the app icon badges with their proprietary badging scheme when third-party applications indicate support of the proprietary badging scheme through the use of proprietary APIs, but SHOULD use the resources and values provided through the notification badges APIs described in the SDK , such as the Notification.Builder.setNumber() and the Notification.Builder.setBadgeIconType() API.

If device implementations support monochrome icons, these icons:

• [C-6-1] MUST be used only when a user explicitly enables them (eg via Settings or wallpaper picker menu).

3.8.2. widgets

Android supports third-party app widgets by defining a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose an “AppWidget” to the end user.

If device implementations support third-party app widgets, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare support for platform feature android.software.app_widgets .
• [C-1-2] MUST include built-in support for AppWidgets and expose user interface affordances to add, configure, view, and remove AppWidgets.
• [C-1-3] MUST be capable of rendering widgets that are 4 x 4 in the standard grid size. See the App Widget DesignGuidelines in the Android SDK documentation for details.
• MAY support application widgets on the lock screen.

If device implementations support third-party app widgets and in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report true for AppWidgetManager.html.isRequestPinAppWidgetSupported() .
• [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the AppWidgetManager.requestPinAppWidget() API method.

3.8.3. Notificaciones

Android includes Notification and NotificationManager APIs that allow third-party app developers to notify users of notable events and attract users' attention using the hardware components (eg sound, vibration and light) and software features (eg notification shade, system bar) of the device .

3.8.3.1. Presentation of Notifications

If device implementations allow third-party apps to notify users of notable events , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support notifications that use hardware features, as described in the SDK documentation, and to the extent possible with the device implementation hardware. For instance, if a device implementation includes a vibrator, it MUST correctly implement the vibration APIs. If a device implementation lacks hardware, the corresponding APIs MUST be implemented as no-ops. This behavior is further detailed in section 7 .
• [C-1-2] MUST correctly render all resources (icons, animation files, etc.) provided for in the APIs, or in the Status/System Bar icon style guide , although they MAY provide an alternative user experience for notifications than that provided by the reference Android Open Source implementation.
• [C-1-3] MUST honor and implement properly the behaviors described for the APIs to update, remove and group notifications.
• [C-1-4] MUST provide the full behavior of the NotificationChannel API documented in the SDK.
• [C-1-5] MUST provide a user affordance to block and modify a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level.
• [C-1-6] MUST also provide a user affordance to display deleted notification channels.
• [C-1-7] MUST correctly render all resources (images, stickers, icons, etc.) provided through Notification.MessagingStyle alongside the notification text without additional user interaction. For example, MUST show all resources including icons provided through android.app.Person in a group conversation that is set through setGroupConversation .
• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide an affordance for the user to control the notifications that are exposed to apps that have been granted the Notification Listener permission. The granularity MUST be so that the user can control for each such notification listener what notification types are bridged to this listener. The types MUST include "conversations", "alerting", "silent", and "important ongoing" notifications.
• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED provide an affordance for users to specify apps to exclude from notifying any specific notification listener.
• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to automatically surface a user affordance to block a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level after the user dismisses that notification multiple times.
• SHOULD support rich notifications.
• SHOULD present some higher priority notifications as heads-up notifications.
• SHOULD have a user affordance to snooze notifications.
• MAY only manage the visibility and timing of when third-party apps can notify users of notable events to mitigate safety issues such as driver distraction.

Android 11 introduces support for conversation notifications, which are notifications that use MessagingStyle and provides a published People Shortcut ID.

Device implementations:

• [C-SR-4] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to group and display conversation notifications ahead of non conversation notifications with the exception of ongoing foreground service notifications and importance:high notifications.

If device implementations support conversation notifications and the app provides the required data for bubbles , they:

• [C-SR-5] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to display this conversation as a bubble. The AOSP implementation meets these requirements with the default System UI, Settings, and Launcher.

If device implementations support rich notifications, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST use the exact resources as provided through the Notification.Style API class and its subclasses for the presented resource elements.
• SHOULD present each and every resource element (eg icon, title and summary text) defined in the Notification.Style API class and its subclasses.

Heads up notifications are notifications that are presented to the user as they come in independently of the surface the user is on. If device implementations support heads-up notifications, then they:

• [C-3-1] MUST use the heads-up notification view and resources as described in the Notification.Builder API class when heads-up notifications are presented.
• [C-3-2] MUST display the actions provided through Notification.Builder.addAction() together with the notification content without additional user interaction as described in the SDK .

3.8.3.2. Servicio de escucha de notificaciones

Android includes the NotificationListenerService APIs that allow apps (once explicitly enabled by the user) to receive a copy of all notifications as they are posted or updated.

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST correctly and promptly update notifications in their entirety to all such installed and user-enabled listener services, including any and all metadata attached to the Notification object.
• [C-0-2] MUST respect the snoozeNotification() API call, and dismiss the notification and make a callback after the snooze duration that is set in the API call.

If device implementations have a user affordance to snooze notifications, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST reflect the snoozed notification status properly through the standard APIs such as NotificationListenerService.getSnoozedNotifications() .
• [C-1-2] MUST make this user affordance available to snooze notifications from each installed third-party app's, unless they are from persistent/foreground services.

3.8.3.3. DND (Do not Disturb)/ Priority Mode

If device implementations support the DND feature (also called Priority Mode), they:

• [C-1-1] MUST, for when the device implementation has provided a means for the user to grant or deny third-party apps to access the DND policy configuration, display Automatic DND rules created by applications alongside the user-created and pre-defined rules.
• [C-1-3] MUST honor the suppressedVisualEffects values passed along the NotificationManager.Policy and if an app has set any of the SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_OFF or SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_ON flags, it SHOULD indicate to the user that the visual effects are suppressed in the DND settings menu.

3.8.4. Assist API's

Android includes the Assist APIs to allow applications to elect how much information of the current context is shared with the assistant on the device.

If device implementations support the Assist action, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST indicate clearly to the end user when the context is shared, by either:
  • Each time the assist app accesses the context, displaying a white light around the edges of the screen that meet or exceed the duration and brightness of the Android Open Source Project implementation.
  • For the preinstalled assist app, providing a user affordance less than two navigations away from the default voice input and assistant app settings menu , and only sharing the context when the assist app is explicitly invoked by the user through a hotword or assist navigation key input.
• [C-2-2] The designated interaction to launch the assist app as described in section 7.2.3 MUST launch the user-selected assist app, in other words the app that implements VoiceInteractionService , or an activity handling the ACTION_ASSIST intent.

3.8.5. Alerts and Toasts

Applications can use the Toast API to display short non-modal strings to the end user that disappear after a brief period of time, and use the TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY window type API to display alert windows as an overlay over other apps.

If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST provide a user affordance to block an app from displaying alert windows that use the TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY . The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by having controls in the notification shade.

• [C-1-2] MUST honor the Toast API and display Toasts from applications to end users in some highly visible manner.

3.8.6. Temas

Android provides “themes” as a mechanism for applications to apply styles across an entire Activity or application.

Android includes a “Holo” and "Material" theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the Holo theme look and feel as defined by the Android SDK.

If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT alter any of the Holo theme attributes exposed to applications.
• [C-1-2] MUST support the “Material” theme family and MUST NOT alter any of the Material theme attributes or their assets exposed to applications.

• [C-1-3] MUST either set the "sans-serif" font family to Roboto version 2.x for the languages that Roboto supports, or provide a user affordance to change the font used for the "sans-serif" font family to Roboto version 2.x for the languages that Roboto supports.

• [C-1-4] MUST generate dynamic color tonal palettes as specified in the AOSP documentation of Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES (see android.theme.customization.system_palette and android.theme.customization.theme_style ).

• [C-1-5] MUST generate dynamic color tonal palettes using color theme styles enumerated in the Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES documentation (see android.theme.customization.theme_styles ), namely TONAL_SPOT , VIBRANT , EXPRESSIVE , SPRITZ , RAINBOW , FRUIT_SALAD .

  "Source color" used to generate dynamic color tonal palettes when sent with android.theme.customization.system_palette (as documented in Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES ).

• [C-1-6] MUST have a CAM16 chroma value of 5 or larger.

  • SHOULD be derived from the wallpaper via com.android.systemui.monet.ColorScheme#getSeedColors , which provides multiple valid source colors to pick one from.

  • SHOULD use the value 0xFF1B6EF3 , if none of the provided colors meet the above source color requirement.

Android also includes a “Device Default” theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the look and feel of the device theme as defined by the device implementer.

• Device implementations MAY modify the Device Default theme attributes exposed to applications.

Android supports a variant theme with translucent system bars, which allows application developers to fill the area behind the status and navigation bar with their app content. To enable a consistent developer experience in this configuration, it is important the status bar icon style is maintained across different device implementations.

If device implementations include a system status bar, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST use white for system status icons (such as signal strength and battery level) and notifications issued by the system, unless the icon is indicating a problematic status or an app requests a light status bar using the WindowInsetsController#APPEARANCE_LIGHT_STATUS_BARS flag.
• [C-2-2] Android device implementations MUST change the color of the system status icons to black (for details, refer to R.style ) when an app requests a light status bar.

3.8.7. Fondos de pantalla vivos

Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose one or more “Live Wallpapers” to the end user. Live wallpapers are animations, patterns, or similar images with limited input capabilities that display as a wallpaper, behind other applications.

Hardware is considered capable of reliably running live wallpapers if it can run all live wallpapers, with no limitations on functionality, at a reasonable frame rate with no adverse effects on other applications. If limitations in the hardware cause wallpapers and/or applications to crash, malfunction, consume excessive CPU or battery power, or run at unacceptably low frame rates, the hardware is considered incapable of running live wallpaper. As an example, some live wallpapers may use an OpenGL 2.0 or 3.x context to render their content. Live wallpaper will not run reliably on hardware that does not support multiple OpenGL contexts because the live wallpaper use of an OpenGL context may conflict with other applications that also use an OpenGL context.

• Device implementations capable of running live wallpapers reliably as described above SHOULD implement live wallpapers.

If device implementations implement live wallpapers, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the platform feature flag android.software.live_wallpaper.

3.8.8. Activity Switching

The upstream Android source code includes the overview screen , a system-level user interface for task switching and displaying recently accessed activities and tasks using a thumbnail image of the application's graphical state at the moment the user last left the application.

Device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 MAY alter the interface.

If device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 alter the interface, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support at least up to 7 displayed activities.
• SHOULD at least display the title of 4 activities at a time.
• [C-1-2] MUST implement the screen pinning behavior and provide the user with a settings menu to toggle the feature.
• SHOULD display highlight color, icon, screen title in recents.
• SHOULD display a closing affordance ("x") but MAY delay this until user interacts with screens.
• SHOULD implement a shortcut to switch easily to the previous activity.
• SHOULD trigger the fast-switch action between the two most recently used apps, when the recents function key is tapped twice.
• SHOULD trigger the split-screen multiwindow-mode, if supported, when the recents functions key is long pressed.
• MAY display affiliated recents as a group that moves together.
• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the upstream Android user interface (or a similar thumbnail-based interface) for the overview screen.

3.8.9. Gestión de entradas

Android includes support for Input Management and support for third-party input method editors.

If device implementations allow users to use third-party input methods on the device, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature android.software.input_methods and support IME APIs as defined in the Android SDK documentation.

3.8.10. Lock Screen Media Control

  • Devices with the Configuration.uiMode that is set other than UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION MUST allocate a minimum width and height of 108 dp.
  • Devices with the Configuration.uiMode that is set to UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION MUST allocate a minimum width of 240 dp and a minimum height of 135 dp.

3.8.15. Display Cutout

Android supports a Display Cutout as described in the SDK document. The DisplayCutout API defines an area on the edge of the display that may not be functional for an application due to a display cutout or curved display on the edge(s).

If device implementations include display cutout(s), they:

• [C-1-5] MUST NOT have cutout(s) if the device's aspect ratio is 1.0(1:1).

• [C-1-6] MUST send the ACTION_GET_PROVISIONING_MODE intent after profile owner provisioning is triggered so that the DPC app can choose whether to become a Device Owner or a Profile Owner except when provisioning is triggered by the intent android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE .

• [C-1-7] MUST send the ACTION_ADMIN_POLICY_COMPLIANCE intent to the work profile when a Profile Owner is established during provisioning regardless of which provisioning method is used except when provisioning is triggered by the intent android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE . The user must not be able proceed in the Setup Wizard until the Profile Owner app finishes.

• [C-1-8] MUST send ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_PROVISIONED broadcast to the personal profile DPC when a Profile Owner is established, regardless of the provisioning method used.

3.9.2 Managed Profile Support

If device implementations declare android.software.managed_users , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support managed profiles via the android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager APIs.

If the user leaves such an app without explicitly exiting it (for example by pressing home while leaving an active activity the system, instead of pressing back with no remaining active activities in the system), then device implementations MUST prioritize that app in RAM as they do for other things that are expected to remain running, such as foreground services. While such an app is in the background, the system can still apply power management features to it, such as limiting CPU and network access.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide a UI affordance to chose the app that won't participate in the normal state save/restore mechanism once the user launches a second app declared with cantSaveState attribute.
• [C-1-3] MUST NOT apply other changes in policy to apps that specify cantSaveState , such as changing CPU performance or changing scheduling prioritization.

If device implementations don't declare the feature FEATURE_CANT_SAVE_STATE , then they:

• [C-1-1] MUST ignore the cantSaveState attribute set by apps and MUST NOT change the app behavior based on that attribute.

3.18. Contactos

Android includes Contacts Provider APIs to allow applications to manage contact information stored on the device. Contact data that is entered directly into the device is typically synchronized with a web service, but the data MAY also only reside locally on the device. Contacts that are only stored on the device are referred to as local contacts.

RawContacts are "associated with" or "stored in" an Account when the ACCOUNT_NAME , and ACCOUNT_TYPE , columns for the raw contacts match the corresponding Account.name and Account.type fields of the account.

Default local account : an account for raw contacts that are only stored on the device and not associated with an Account in the AccountManager , which are created with null values for the ACCOUNT_NAME , and ACCOUNT_TYPE , columns.

Custom local account : an account for raw contacts that are only stored on the device and not associated with an Account in the AccountManager, which are created with at least one non-null value for the ACCOUNT_NAME , and ACCOUNT_TYPE , columns.

Device implementations:

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to not create custom local accounts .

If device implementations use a custom local account :

• [C-1-1] The ACCOUNT_NAME , of the custom local account MUST be returned by ContactsContract.RawContacts.getLocalAccountName

• cold output latency . The time between starting an output stream and the presentation time of the first frame based on timestamps, when the audio output system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
• continuous output latency . The output latency for subsequent frames, after the device is playing audio.
• input latency . The interval between when a sound is presented by environment to device at an on-device transducer or signal enters the device via a port and when an application reads the corresponding frame of PCM-coded data.
• lost input . The initial portion of an input signal that is unusable or unavailable.
• cold input latency . The time between starting the stream and when the first valid frame is received, when the audio input system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
• continuous input latency . The input latency for subsequent frames, while the device is capturing audio.

• AAudio native audio API . The set of AAudio APIs within Android NDK .
• Marca de tiempo . A pair consisting of a relative frame position within a stream and the estimated time when that frame enters or leaves the audio processing pipeline on the associated endpoint. See also AudioTimestamp .

• [C-6-5] MUST support P010 and COLOR_FormatYUVP010.

• [C-6-6] MUST support HDR to SDR tone mapping in the default hardware-accelerated decoder for the captured profile. In other words, if a device can capture HDR10+ HEVC, the default HEVC decoder MUST be able to decode the captured stream in SDR.

HDR Editing Requirements

If device implementations include video encoders that support HDR editing, then they:

• SHOULD use minimal latency for generating the HDR metadata when not present, and SHOULD gracefully handle situations where the metadata is present for some frames and not for others. This metadata SHOULD be precise (for example, represent the actual peak luminance and histogram of the frame).

If device implementation includes codecs that support FEATURE_HdrEditing, then those codecs:

• [C-7-1] MUST support at least one HDR profile.

• [C-7-2] MUST support FEATURE_HdrEditing for all HDR profiles advertised by that codec. In other words, they MUST support generating HDR metadata when not present for all HDR profiles supported that use HDR metadata.

• [C-7-3] MUST support the following video encoder input formats that fully preserve the HDR decoded signal:

  • RGBA_1010102 (already in the target transfer curve) for both input surface and ByteBuffer and MUST advertise support for COLOR_Format32bitABGR2101010.

If device implementation includes codecs that support FEATURE_HdrEditing, then the device:

• [C-7-4] MUST advertise support for EXT_YUV_target OpenGL extension.

• SHOULD have an ongoing visual notification to the user when Developer Options is enabled and the safety of the user is of concern.
• MAY temporarily limit access to the Developer Options menu, by visually hiding or disabling the menu, to prevent distraction for scenarios where the safety of the user is of concern.

7. Hardware Compatibility

If a device includes a particular hardware component that has a corresponding API for third-party developers:

• [C-0-1] The device implementation MUST implement that API as described in the Android SDK documentation.

If an API in the SDK interacts with a hardware component that is stated to be optional and the device implementation does not possess that component:

• [C-0-2] Complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component APIs MUST still be presented.
• [C-0-3] The API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable fashion.
• [C-0-4] API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-5] API methods MUST return no-op implementations of classes where null values are not permitted by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-6] API methods MUST NOT throw exceptions not documented by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-7] Device implementations MUST consistently report accurate hardware configuration information via the getSystemAvailableFeatures() and hasSystemFeature(String) methods on the android.content.pm.PackageManager class for the same build fingerprint.

A typical example of a scenario where these requirements apply is the telephony API: Even on non-phone devices, these APIs must be implemented as reasonable no-ops.

7.1. Pantalla y gráficos

Android includes facilities that automatically adjust application assets and UI layouts appropriately for the device to ensure that third-party applications run well on a variety of hardware configurations . On the Android-compatible display(s) where all third-party Android-compatible applications can run, device implementations MUST properly implement these APIs and behaviors, as detailed in this section.

The units referenced by the requirements in this section are defined as follows:

• physical diagonal size . The distance in inches between two opposing corners of the illuminated portion of the display.
• dots per inch (dpi) . The number of pixels encompassed by a linear horizontal or vertical span of 1”. Where dpi values are listed, both horizontal and vertical dpi must fall within the range.
• aspect ratio . The ratio of the pixels of the longer dimension to the shorter dimension of the screen. For example, a display of 480x854 pixels would be 854/480 = 1.779, or roughly “16:9”.
• density-independent pixel (dp) . The virtual pixel unit normalized to a 160 dpi screen, calculated as: pixels = dps * (density/160).

7.1.1. Configuración de pantalla

7.1.1.1. Tamaño y forma de la pantalla

The Android UI framework supports a variety of different logical screen layout sizes, and allows applications to query the current configuration's screen layout size via Configuration.screenLayout with the SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK and Configuration.smallestScreenWidthDp .

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST report the correct layout size for the Configuration.screenLayout as defined in the Android SDK documentation. Specifically, device implementations MUST report the correct logical density-independent pixel (dp) screen dimensions as below:

  • Devices with the Configuration.uiMode set as any value other than UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH, and reporting a small size for the Configuration.screenLayout , MUST have at least 426 dp x 320 dp.
  • Devices reporting a normal size for the Configuration.screenLayout , MUST have at least 480 dp x 320 dp.
  • Devices reporting a large size for the Configuration.screenLayout , MUST have at least 640 dp x 480 dp.
  • Devices reporting a xlarge size for the Configuration.screenLayout , MUST have at least 960 dp x 720 dp.

• [C-0-2] MUST correctly honor applications' stated support for screen sizes through the < supports-screens > attribute in the AndroidManifest.xml, as described in the Android SDK documentation.

• MAY have the Android-compatible display(s) with rounded corners.

If device implementations support UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL and include Android-compatible display(s) with rounded corners, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST ensure that at least one of the following requirements is met:

  • The radius of the rounded corners is less than or equal to 38 dp.
  • When a 15 dp by 15 dp box is anchored at each corner of the logical display, at least one pixel of each box is visible on the screen.

• SHOULD include user affordance to switch to the display mode with the rectangular corners.

If device implementations include an Android-compatible display(s) that is foldable, or includes a folding hinge between multiple display panels and makes such display(s) available to render third-party apps, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST implement the latest available stable version of the extensions API or the stable version of sidecar API to be used by Window Manager Jetpack library.

If device implementations include an Android-compatible display(s) that is foldable, or includes a folding hinge between multiple display panels and if the hinge or fold crosses a fullscreen application window, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST report the position, bounds and state of hinge or fold through extensions or sidecar APIs to the application.

For details on correctly implementing the sidecar or extension APIs refer to the public documentation of Window Manager Jetpack .

7.1.1.2. Relación de aspecto de pantalla

While there is no restriction to the aspect ratio of the physical display for the Android-compatible display(s), the aspect ratio of the logical display where third-party apps are rendered, which can be derived from the height and width values reported through the view.Display APIs and Configuration APIs, MUST meet the following requirements:

• [C-0-1] Device implementations with Configuration.uiMode set to UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL MUST have an aspect ratio value less than or equal to 1.86 (roughly 16:9), unless the app meets one of the following conditions:

  • The app has declared that it supports a larger screen aspect ratio through the android.max_aspect metadata value.
  • The app declares it is resizeable via the android:resizeableActivity attribute.
  • The app targets API level 24 or higher and does not declare an android:maxAspectRatio that would restrict the allowed aspect ratio.

• [C-0-3] Device implementations with the Configuration.uiMode set as UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH MUST have an aspect ratio value set as 1.0 (1:1).

7.1.1.3. Densidad de la pantalla

The Android UI framework defines a set of standard logical densities to help application developers target application resources.

• [C-0-1] By default, device implementations MUST report only one of the Android framework densities that are listed on DisplayMetrics through the DENSITY_DEVICE_STABLE API and this value MUST NOT change at any time; however, the device MAY report a different arbitrary density according to the display configuration changes made by the user (for example, display size) set after initial boot.

• Device implementations SHOULD define the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density of the screen, unless that logical density pushes the reported screen size below the minimum supported. If the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density results in a screen size that is smaller than the smallest supported compatible screen size (320 dp width), device implementations SHOULD report the next lowest standard Android framework density.

If there is an affordance to change the display size of the device:

• [C-1-1] The display size MUST NOT be scaled any larger than 1.5 times the native density or produce an effective minimum screen dimension smaller than 320dp (equivalent to resource qualifier sw320dp), whichever comes first.
• [C-1-2] Display size MUST NOT be scaled any smaller than 0.85 times the native density.
• To ensure good usability and consistent font sizes, it is RECOMMENDED that the following scaling of Native Display options be provided (while complying with the limits specified above)
  • Small: 0.85x
  • Default: 1x (Native display scale)
  • Large: 1.15x
  • Larger: 1.3x

If device implementations does not include an embedded screen or video output, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report correct values of the Android-compatible display as defined in the android.util.DisplayMetrics API for the emulated default view.Display .

7.1.3. Orientación de la pantalla

Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST report which screen orientations they support ( android.hardware.screen.portrait and/or android.hardware.screen.landscape ) and MUST report at least one supported orientation. For example, a device with a fixed orientation landscape screen, such as a television or laptop, SHOULD only report android.hardware.screen.landscape .
• [C-0-2] MUST report the correct value for the device's current orientation, whenever queried via the android.content.res.Configuration.orientation , android.view.Display.getOrientation() , or other APIs.

If device implementations support both screen orientations, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support dynamic orientation by applications to either portrait or landscape screen orientation. That is, the device must respect the application's request for a specific screen orientation.
• [C-1-2] MUST NOT change the reported screen size or density when changing orientation.

7.1.5. Legacy Application Compatibility Mode

Android specifies a “compatibility mode” in which the framework operates in a 'normal' screen size equivalent (320dp width) mode for the benefit of legacy applications not developed for old versions of Android that pre-date screen-size independence.

7.1.6. Tecnología de pantalla

The Android platform includes APIs that allow applications to render rich graphics to an Android-compatible display. Devices MUST support all of these APIs as defined by the Android SDK unless specifically allowed in this document.

The upstream Android open source implementation includes a selection mechanism suitable for use with devices that lack non-touch navigation inputs.

7.2.3. Teclas de navegación

The Home , Recents , and Back functions typically provided via an interaction with a dedicated physical button or a distinct portion of the touch screen, are essential to the Android navigation paradigm and therefore, device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST provide a user affordance to launch installed applications that have an activity with the <intent-filter> set with ACTION=MAIN and CATEGORY=LAUNCHER or CATEGORY=LEANBACK_LAUNCHER for Television device implementations. The Home function SHOULD be the mechanism for this user affordance.
• SHOULD provide buttons for the Recents and Back function.

If the Home, Recents, or Back functions are provided, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST be accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when any of them are accessible.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide a clear indication of which single action would trigger each function. Having a visible icon imprinted on the button, showing a software icon on the navigation bar portion of the screen, or walking the user through a guided step-by-step demo flow during the out-of-box setup experience are examples of such an indicación.

Device implementations:

• [C-SR-1] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to not provide the input mechanism for the Menu function as it is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0.

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide all navigation functions as cancellable. 'Cancellable' is defined as the user's ability to prevent the navigation function from executing (eg going home, going back, etc.) if the swipe is not released past a certain threshold.

If device implementations provide the Menu function, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST display the action overflow button whenever the action overflow menu popup is not empty and the action bar is visible.
• [C-2-2] MUST NOT modify the position of the action overflow popup displayed by selecting the overflow button in the action bar, but MAY render the action overflow popup at a modified position on the screen when it is displayed by selecting the Menu función.

If device implementations do not provide the Menu function, for backwards compatibility, they: * [C-3-1] MUST make the Menu function available to applications when targetSdkVersion is less than 10, either by a physical button, a software key, or gestos. This Menu function should be accessible unless hidden together with other navigation functions.

If device implementations provide the Assist function , they:

• [C-4-1] MUST make the Assist function accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when other navigation keys are accessible.
• [C-SR-3] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use long press on HOME function as this designated interaction.

If device implementations use a distinct portion of the screen to display the navigation keys, they:

• [C-5-1] Navigation keys MUST use a distinct portion of the screen, not available to applications, and MUST NOT obscure or otherwise interfere with the portion of the screen available to applications.
• [C-5-2] MUST make available a portion of the display to applications that meets the requirements defined in section 7.1.1 .
• [C-5-3] MUST honor the flags set by the app through the View.setSystemUiVisibility() API method, so that this distinct portion of the screen (aka the navigation bar) is properly hidden away as documented in the SDK.

If the navigation function is provided as an on-screen, gesture-based action:

• [C-6-1] WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() MUST only be used to report the Home gesture recognition area.
• [C-6-2] Gestures that start within an exclusion rect as provided by the foreground application via View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() , but outside of WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() , MUST NOT be intercepted for the navigation function as long as the exclusion rect is allowed within the max exclusion limit as specified in the documentation for View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() .
• [C-6-3] MUST send the foreground app a MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL event once touches start being intercepted for a system gesture, if the foreground app was previously sent an MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN event.
• [C-6-4] MUST provide a user affordance to switch to an on-screen, button-based navigation (for example, in Settings).
• SHOULD provide Home function as a swipe up from the bottom edge of the current orientation of the screen.
• SHOULD provide Recents function as a swipe up and hold before release, from the same area as the Home gesture.
• Gestures that start within WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() SHOULD NOT be affected by exclusion rects provided by the foreground application via View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() .

If a navigation function is provided from anywhere on the left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen:

• [C-7-1] The navigation function MUST be Back and provided as a swipe from both left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen.
• [C-7-2] If custom swipeable system panels are provided on the left or right edges, they MUST be placed within the top 1/3rd of the screen with a clear, persistent visual indication that dragging in would invoke the aforementioned panels, and hence not Back. A system panel MAY be configured by a user such that it lands below the top 1/3rd of the screen edge(s) but the system panel MUST NOT use longer than 1/3rd of the edge(s).
• [C-7-3] When the foreground app has either the View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE, View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY, WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT, or WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE flags set, swiping from the edges MUST behave as implemented in AOSP, which is documented in the SDK .
• [C-7-4] When the foreground app has either the View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE, View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY, WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT, or WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE flags set, custom swipeable system panels MUST be hidden until the user brings in or un-dims the system bars (aka navigation and status bar) as implemented in AOSP.

If the back navigation function is provided and the user cancels the Back gesture, then:

• [C-8-1] OnBackInvokedCallback.onBackCancelled() MUST be called.
• [C-8-2] OnBackInvokedCallback.onBackInvoked() MUST NOT be called.
• [C-8-3] KEYCODE_BACK event MUST NOT be dispatched.

If the back navigation function is provided but the foreground application does NOT have an OnBackInvokedCallback registered, then:

• The system SHOULD provide an animation for the foreground application that suggests that the user is going back, as provided in AOSP.

If device implementations provide support for the system API setNavBarMode to allow any system app with android.permission.STATUS_BAR permission to set the navigation bar mode, then they:

• [C-9-1] MUST provide support for kid-friendly icons or button-based navigation as provided in the AOSP code.

7.2.4. Touchscreen Input

Android includes support for a variety of pointer input systems, such as touchscreens, touch pads, and fake touch input devices. Touchscreen-based device implementations are associated with a display such that the user has the impression of directly manipulating items on screen. Since the user is directly touching the screen, the system does not require any additional affordances to indicate the objects being manipulated.

Device implementations:

• SHOULD have a pointer input system of some kind (either mouse-like or touch).
• SHOULD support fully independently tracked pointers.

If device implementations include a touchscreen (single-touch or better) on a primary Android-compatible display, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report TOUCHSCREEN_FINGER for the Configuration.touchscreen API field.
• [C-1-2] MUST report the android.hardware.touchscreen and android.hardware.faketouch feature flags.

If device implementations include a touchscreen that can track more than a single touch on a primary Android-compatible display, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report the appropriate feature flags android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch , android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct , android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.jazzhand corresponding to the type of the specific touchscreen on the dispositivo.

If device implementations rely on an external input device such as mouse or trackball (ie not directly touching the screen) for input on a primary Android-compatible display and meet the fake touch requirements in section 7.2.5 , they:

• [C-3-1] MUST NOT report any feature flag starting with android.hardware.touchscreen .
• [C-3-2] MUST report only android.hardware.faketouch .
• [C-3-3] MUST report TOUCHSCREEN_NOTOUCH for the Configuration.touchscreen API field.

7.2.5. Fake Touch Input

Fake touch interface provides a user input system that approximates a subset of touchscreen capabilities. For example, a mouse or remote control that drives an on-screen cursor approximates touch, but requires the user to first point or focus then click. Numerous input devices like the mouse, trackpad, gyro-based air mouse, gyro-pointer, joystick, and multi-touch trackpad can support fake touch interactions. Android includes the feature constant android.hardware.faketouch, which corresponds to a high-fidelity non-touch (pointer-based) input device such as a mouse or trackpad that can adequately emulate touch-based input (including basic gesture support), and indicates that the device supports an emulated subset of touchscreen functionality.

If device implementations do not include a touchscreen but include another pointer input system which they want to make available, they:

• SHOULD declare support for the android.hardware.faketouch feature flag.

If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the absolute X and Y screen positions of the pointer location and display a visual pointer on the screen.
• [C-1-2] MUST report touch event with the action code that specifies the state change that occurs on the pointer going down or up on the screen .
• [C-1-3] MUST support pointer down and up on an object on the screen, which allows users to emulate tap on an object on the screen.

• SHOULD include a biometric sensor

Biometric sensors can be classified as Class 3 (formerly Strong ), Class 2 (formerly Weak ), or Class 1 (formerly Convenience ) based on their spoof and imposter acceptance rates, and on the security of the biometric pipeline. This classification determines the capabilities the biometric sensor has to interface with the platform and with third-party applications. Sensors need to meet additional requirements as detailed below if they wish to be classified as either Class 1 , Class 2 or Class 3 . Both Class 2 and Class 3 biometrics get additional capabilities as detailed below.

If device implementations make a biometric sensor available to third-party applications via android.hardware.biometrics.BiometricManager , android.hardware.biometrics.BiometricPrompt , and android.provider.Settings.ACTION_BIOMETRIC_ENROLL , they:

• [C-4-3] MUST implement the ACTION_BIOMETRIC_ENROLL action on devices that have either Class 3 or Class 2 biometrics. This action MUST only present the enrollment entry points for Class 3 or Class 2 biometrics.

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have the confirm action be secured such that an operating system or kernel compromise cannot spoof it. For example, this means that the confirm action based on a physical button is routed through an input-only general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pin of a secure element (SE) that cannot be driven by any other means than a physical button prensa.
• [C-5-2] MUST additionally implement an implicit authentication flow (without confirmation step) corresponding to setConfirmationRequired(boolean) , which applications can set to utilize for sign-in flows.

If device implementations have multiple biometric sensors, they:

• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to require only one biometric be confirmed per authentication (eg if both fingerprint and face sensors are available on the device, onAuthenticationSucceeded should be sent after any one of them is confirmed).

In order for device implementations to allow access to keystore keys to third-party applications, they:

• [C-6-1] MUST meet the requirements for Class 3 as defined in this section below.
• [C-6-2] MUST present only Class 3 biometrics when the authentication requires BIOMETRIC_STRONG , or the authentication is invoked with a CryptoObject .

If device implementations wish to treat a biometric sensor as Class 1 (formerly Convenience ), they:

• [C-1-1] MUST have a false acceptance rate less than 0.002%.
• [C-1-2] MUST disclose that this mode may be less secure than a strong PIN, pattern, or password and clearly enumerate the risks of enabling it, if the spoof and imposter acceptance rates are higher than 7% as measured by the Android Biometrics Test Protocols .
• [C-1-9] MUST challenge the user for the recommended primary authentication (eg PIN, pattern, password) after no more than twenty false trials and no less than ninety-second backoff time for biometric verification - where a false trial is one with an adequate capture quality (BIOMETRIC_ACQUIRED_GOOD) that does not match an enrolled biometric.
• [C-SR-4] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to lower the total number of false trials for biometric verification specified in [C-1-9] if the spoof and imposter acceptance rates are higher than 7% as measure by the Android Biometrics Test Protocols .
• [C-1-3] MUST rate limit attempts for biometric verification - where a false trial is one with an adequate capture quality ( BIOMETRIC_ACQUIRED_GOOD ) that does not match an enrolled biometric.
• [C-SR-5] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to rate limit attempts for at least 30 seconds after five false trials for biometric verification for the maximum number of false trials per [C-1-9] - where a false trial is one with an adequate capture quality (BIOMETRIC_ACQUIRED_GOOD) that does not match an enrolled biometric.

7.4.1. Telefonía

“Telephony” as used by the Android APIs and this document refers specifically to hardware related to placing voice calls and sending SMS messages via a GSM or CDMA network. While these voice calls may or may not be packet-switched, they are for the purposes of Android considered independent of any data connectivity that may be implemented using the same network. In other words, the Android “telephony” functionality and APIs refer specifically to voice calls and SMS. For instance, device implementations that cannot place calls or send/receive SMS messages are not considered a telephony device, regardless of whether they use a cellular network for data connectivity.

Note that this constraint does not apply to the device's built-in system camera application, but only to third-party applications using Camera.PreviewCallback .

7.5.2. Cámara frontal

A front-facing camera is a camera located on the same side of the device as the display; that is, a camera typically used to image the user, such as for video conferencing and similar applications.

• MAY include a front-facing camera.

If device implementations include at least one front-facing camera, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the feature flag android.hardware.camera.any and android.hardware.camera.front .

Android includes two API packages to access the camera, the newer android.hardware.camera2 API expose lower-level camera control to the app, including efficient zero-copy burst/streaming flows and per-frame controls of exposure, gain, white balance gains, color conversion, denoising, sharpening, and more.

The older API package, android.hardware.Camera , is marked as deprecated in Android 5.0 but as it should still be available for apps to use. Android device implementations MUST ensure the continued support of the API as described in this section and in the Android SDK.

All features that are common between the deprecated android.hardware.Camera class and the newer android.hardware.camera2 package MUST have equivalent performance and quality in both APIs. For example, with equivalent settings, autofocus speed and accuracy must be identical, and the quality of captured images must be the same. Features that depend on the different semantics of the two APIs are not required to have matching speed or quality, but SHOULD match as closely as possible.

Device implementations MUST implement the following behaviors for the camera-related APIs, for all available cameras. Device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST use android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP for preview data provided to application callbacks when an application has never called android.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int) .
• [C-0-2] MUST further be in the NV21 encoding format when an application registers an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance and the system calls the onPreviewFrame() method and the preview format is YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the byte[] passed into onPreviewFrame() . That is, NV21 MUST be the default.
• [C-0-3] MUST support the YV12 format (as denoted by the android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12 constant) for camera previews for both front- and rear-facing cameras for android.hardware.Camera . (The hardware video encoder and camera may use any native pixel format, but the device implementation MUST support conversion to YV12.)
• [C-0-4] MUST support the android.hardware.ImageFormat.YUV_420_888 and android.hardware.ImageFormat.JPEG formats as outputs through the android.media.ImageReader API for android.hardware.camera2 devices that advertise REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_BACKWARD_COMPATIBLE capability in android.request.availableCapabilities .
• [C-0-5] MUST still implement the full Camera API included in the Android SDK documentation, regardless of whether the device includes hardware autofocus or other capabilities. For instance, cameras that lack autofocus MUST still call any registered android.hardware.Camera.AutoFocusCallback instances (even though this has no relevance to a non-autofocus camera.) Note that this does apply to front-facing cameras; for instance, even though most front-facing cameras do not support autofocus, the API callbacks must still be “faked” as described.
• [C-0-6] MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined as a constant in the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters class and the android.hardware.camera2.CaptureRequest class. Conversely, device implementations MUST NOT honor or recognize string constants passed to the android.hardware.Camera.setParameters() method other than those documented as constants on the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters . That is, device implementations MUST support all standard Camera parameters if the hardware allows, and MUST NOT support custom Camera parameter types. For instance, device implementations that support image capture using high dynamic range (HDR) imaging techniques MUST support camera parameter Camera.SCENE_MODE_HDR .
• [C-0-7] MUST report the proper level of support with the android.info.supportedHardwareLevel property as described in the Android SDK and report the appropriate framework feature flags .
• [C-0-8] MUST also declare its individual camera capabilities of android.hardware.camera2 via the android.request.availableCapabilities property and declare the appropriate feature flags ; MUST define the feature flag if any of its attached camera devices supports the feature.
• [C-0-9] MUST broadcast the Camera.ACTION_NEW_PICTURE intent whenever a new picture is taken by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store.
• [C-0-10] MUST broadcast the Camera.ACTION_NEW_VIDEO intent whenever a new video is recorded by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store.
• [C-0-11] MUST have all cameras accessible via the deprecated android.hardware.Camera API also accessible via the android.hardware.camera2 API.
• [C-0-12] MUST ensure that the facial appearance is NOT altered, including but not limited to altering facial geometry, facial skin tone, or facial skin smoothening for any android.hardware.camera2 or android.hardware.Camera API.
• [C-SR-1] For devices with multiple RGB cameras facing in the same direction, are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support a logical camera device that lists capability CameraMetadata.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_LOGICAL_MULTI_CAMERA , consisting of all of the RGB cameras facing that direction as physical sub-devices .

If device implementations provide a proprietary camera API to 3rd-party apps, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST implement such a camera API using android.hardware.camera2 API.
• MAY provide vendor tags and/or extensions to android.hardware.camera2 API.

7.5.5. Orientación de la cámara

If device implementations have a front- or a rear-facing camera, such camera(s):

• [C-1-1] MUST be oriented so that the long dimension of the camera aligns with the screen's long dimension. That is, when the device is held in the landscape orientation, cameras MUST capture images in the landscape orientation. This applies regardless of the device's natural orientation; that is, it applies to landscape-primary devices as well as portrait-primary devices.

Devices that fulfill all of the following criteria are exempt from the requirement above:

• The device implements variable-geometry screens, such as foldable or hinged displays.
• When the device's fold or hinge state changes, the device switches between portrait-primary to landscape-primary (or vice-versa) orientations.

8. Performance and Power

Some minimum performance and power criteria are critical to the user experience and impact the baseline assumptions developers would have when developing an app.

8.1. User Experience Consistency

A smooth user interface can be provided to the end user if there are certain minimum requirements to ensure a consistent frame rate and response times for applications and games. Device implementations, depending on the device type, MAY have measurable requirements for the user interface latency and task switching as described in section 2 .

8.2. File I/O Access Performance

Providing a common baseline for a consistent file access performance on the application private data storage ( /data partition) allows app developers to set a proper expectation that would help their software design. Device implementations, depending on the device type, MAY have certain requirements described in section 2 for the following read and write operations:

• Sequential write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
• Sequential read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
