The lesser‑known side of Android and Google Play

Google Play is a platform developers use every day to distribute Android apps, but behind the scenes lies a wealth of lesser‑known efforts designed to deliver a safe, reliable experience to both developers and users. In this session titled “The lesser‑known side of Android and Google Play”, we’ll explore Android and Google Play’s initiatives in security, the app review process, and programs that support Japan‑origin products and developer communities—stories you don’t hear about every day. If you're actively developing apps or involved in releasing them, this session is sure to deliver new insights and discoveries! (Translated by the DroidKaigi Committee)
