<\/p>\nPosted by Naheed Vora \u2013 Senior Product Manager, Android App Safety<\/em><\/p>\n We understand you want clear Play policy guidance early in your development, so you can focus on building amazing experiences and prevent unexpected delays from disrupting launch plans. That\u2019s why we\u2019re making it easier<\/a> to have smoother app publishing experiences, from the moment you start coding<\/a>.<\/p>\n With Play Policy Insights beta in Android Studio, you\u2019ll get richer, in-context guidance on policies that may impact your app through lint warnings. You\u2019ll see policy summaries, dos and don’ts to avoid common pitfalls, and direct links to details.<\/p>\n We hope you caught an early demo at I\/O<\/a>. And now, you can check out Play Policy Insights beta in the Android Studio Narwhal Feature Drop Canary release<\/a>.<\/p>\n Lint warnings will pop up as you code, like when you add a permission. For example, if you add an Android API that uses Photos and requires READ_MEDIA_IMAGES<\/span> permission, then the Photos & Video Insights lint warning will appear under the respective API call line item in Android Studio.<\/p>\n You can also get these insights by going to Code > Inspect for Play Policy Insights<\/b> and selecting the project scope to analyze. The scope can be set to the whole project, the current module or file, or a custom scope<\/a>.<\/p>\n In addition to seeing these insights in Android Studio, you can also generate them as part of your Continuous Integration process by adding the following dependency<\/a> to your project.<\/p>\n Kotlin<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Groovy<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n We\u2019re actively working on this feature and want your feedback to refine it before releasing it in the Stable channel of Android Studio later this year. Try it out, report issues<\/a>, and stop by the Google Play Developer Help Community to share your questions and thoughts<\/a> directly with our team.<\/p>\n Join us on June 16<\/b> when we answer your questions. We\u2019d love to hear about:<\/p>\n Developers have told us they like:<\/p>\n For more, see our Google Play Help Center article<\/a> or Android Studio preview release notes<\/a>.<\/p>\n We hope features like this will help give you a better policy experience and more streamlined development.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgksCnMsrZnszxW5XIM5WHcKKOv-7XWOmis8YePO-4HHQoSYnkI4FCJvhdDmzAPOG73K4xa0QoXJxJ-4hcFhKWbVYPJzABocltNv0Zwrdc7Fw3t2RGZvBJsiSm1-jHxJUy2FG0mD7pQPZza1BrCUjkKpIs8a7GGneqL_K50FUWXYM9IEWFtabrsV9V5YY8\/s1600\/r2HERO_MULTIPLE_AVATARS.jpg\"){kind=avatar}
