android-developer-assistant's Issues

Add 'Accessibility Service' Mode

(While you're very likely already aware of this option, I think it's good to throw out there in case it sparks any further ideas...)

Ideally the app should have a mode where you can enable it as an Accessibility Service. This would solve these issues on Github.

While it is true, that yes, Google will squawk at Yet Another Accessibility Service-consuming app, and definitely reject it from publishing to the Play Store without some white lies, it is certainly possible. As a developer/power user myself, I definitely need this functionality as much of the inspection I do revolves around the System UI / Quick Access / Notification panels.

Separate Whole Play Store / Github App: One idea is to "simply" isolate the Accessibility Service module and relevant associated linked code (for the UI / backend) from the Play Store version's code, then publish the Accessibility Service-enabled version here, on Github.

Plugin App: Another would be to allow the main application to be "extended" via a plugin application APK (again, available from here, on Github). Exactly like what PCAPDroid does with its PCAPDroid MITM extension. Note: Providing in-app links/advice to users on bypassing Google's policies (such as installing an external APK that uses android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE) can result in warnings/bans.

White Lie (tm): The final option would be to request a Play Store justification for needing android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE by saying something along the lines of:

Developer Assistant allows people with disabilities to inspect the user interface for further details that will aid them in disseminating the information on the screen when it is otherwise unclear to them.

None of them are ideal, but -- in my own opinion -- they are more ideal than being plagued with bug reports for the rest of the app's existence. :-)

P.S. The trigger to start discovery could be using the volume buttons, like Tasker does.
P.P.S. Bonus feature: If package is granted android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS, you can toggle the Accessibility Service on/off dynamically based on need in order to cut down on CPU usage when the app isn't in use and honor user's possible privacy concerns.

Current version doesn't support dialogs

Thank you for the great app!

Having one issue: At the moment unable to inspect views from dialogs. The Layout Inspector, however, is seeing them fine under com.android.internal.policy.PhoneWindow$DecorView root.

Report issues at https://termux.com/issues

You are likely using a very old version of Termux,
probably installed from the Google Play Store.
There are plans in the near future to remove the
Termux apps from the Play Store so that new users
cannot install them and to disable them for
existing users with app updates to prevent the use
of outdated app versions. Instead, you are
encouraged to move to F-Droid or Github sources
(see [1]). You can backup all your current Termux
data before uninstallation and then restore it later
by following instructions in the wiki [2]. Check
the changelog [3] for all the new features and fixes
that you are currently missing. Check [4] for why
this is being done. Note that old versions of
multiple termux apps have privilege escalation
vulnerabilities [5], so it is highly advisable
that you move or update to latest versions
available on F-Droid or Github.

Developer Assistant not trigger on OnePlus 8T - Android 11

Hi, I can't trigger the developer assistant on a OnePlus 8T running Android 11. I've set it as the default assistant and also changed the assistant trigger to long press the power button, but it still doesn't trigger. Any ideas?

Attached photos with screenshots of the current assistant settings.
