Public SDKs/libraries save you time by adding new functionality and service integrations to your apps. However, it can be difficult to know which SDKs are reliable and safe to use. These SDKs can introduce policy or security issues that can delay or completely prevent the release of your app in the Google Play Console. Google Play offers insights through the SDK Index and the SDK Console. Those insights are available directly in Android Studio so you can discover issues and address them while developing your app. In this talk we’ll describe the different types of SDK insights available from Google Play and how you can find and act on them in Android Studio.

After this presentation, you will know where to find SDK issue information from Google Play in Android Studio through lint checks and in the Project Structure Dialog. Addressing these issues during development will save you time when you submit your app to the Google Play Console.
