Android Device Streaming comes to Samsung, Xiaomi, and Oppo Device Labs | Infinium-tech
At its annual developer conference in May, Google unveiled Android Device Streaming in beta. This allows developers to test their apps more easily and interactively on real physical devices that are located in Google data centers and streamed directly to Android Studio.
Today, Google has announced the expansion of this feature in partnership with Samsung, Xiaomi, and Oppo. These companies are connecting their device labs to Android device streaming.
This means developers will be able to access even more physical devices directly in their workflow in Android Studio. Integration for third-party device manufacturers is provided with the same performance, stability, and security benefits that you get from Google-provided devices.
Early access to the Android device streaming extension will be available to developers “later this year” for those already running beta releases on devices provided by Google.
Samsung, Xiaomi, and Oppo’s OEM labs will be located around the world, and developers will be able to choose whether or not to use individual OEM labs. More details are promised to come during Google’s I/O Connect Beijing in “early August.”
Connecting Samsung, Xiaomi and Oppo devices to Android Device Streaming is done through OmniLab, a device platform for Google. OmniLab has open-sourced its Android Test Station framework so that third-party OEMs can connect their own device labs.
