Building a performant and privacy-conscious screen capture library for Compose
User feedback and crash reports often fall short in providing a complete understanding of user behavior and bug causes. Supplementing these reports with a series of screen captures depicting the user journey can prove invaluable for any comprehensive analysis.
Learn about a novel approach for implementing a screen capture library that is safe to run in production:
✅ Does not impact app responsiveness
✅ Requires minimal disk and network usage
✅ Respects user privacy
Even though this is reasonably trivial to do for standard Android views, Jetpack Compose introduces a unique set of challenges for external libraries to efficiently observe the view hierarchy and react to recomposition changes. Join us as we dig deep into the strategies used to overcome these obstacles in this session.
