2020 has given us a new version of Android, Android 11 (code-named "R")!
Each new release brings new opportunities and new challenges for Android developers. Many of the new challenges are extensions of the problems introduced in last year’s Android 10. So, if you are worried about further changes to storage or permissions, or you are nervous about new restrictions being placed on developers, this book is for you!

Android R is the pre-release edition of Android 11. As with past Android releases, Android R will slowly make its way to ordinary users, starting in the fall of 2020. In the meantime, app developers like you need to understand what Android R means with respect to your apps. Each Android release “shuffles the deck” and causes some apps to break, and Android R is no exception.

This book is designed for developers with 1+ years of Android app development experience. If you are fairly new to Android, please consider reading Elements of Android Jetpack, Exploring Android, or both, before continuing with this book. Also note that this book’s examples are written in Kotlin.

What’s New in Version 0.3?
The existing material was updated to reflect R Beta 3. This includes significant changes to the chapter on scoped storage.
Also, the chapter on bubbles was overhauled to be a chapter on conversations and bubbles, since now those two concepts are very closely tied.
A few new sections were added to the chapter on “other changes”, including the restrictions on third-party image capture support and dynamic Intent filters.
