We’re excited to announce that<\/span> Jetpack WindowManager 1.5.0<\/span><\/a> is now stable!<\/span><\/p>\n

This release builds on the strong foundation of adaptability in WindowManager, making it even easier to create polished, adaptive UIs that look great on <\/span>all<\/span> screen sizes. As the Android ecosystem continues to grow, users are engaging with apps on a wider variety of devices than ever before: from phones and foldables to tablets, connected displays, Chromebooks, and even car displays in parked mode.<\/span><\/p>\n

WindowManager 1.5 focuses on providing better tools for this diverse device environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

This stable release introduces new breakpoints for very large screens, enhances the activity embedding API, and provides more flexibility for calculating window metrics.<\/span><\/p>\n

New window size classes: Large and Extra-large<\/span><\/h2>\n

The biggest update in 1.5 is the addition of two new width window size classes: Large and Extra-large.<\/span><\/p>\n

Window size classes are our official, opinionated set of viewport breakpoints that help you design and develop adaptive layouts.<\/span> <\/span><\/span>With 1.5, we’re extending this guidance for screens that go beyond typical tablets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the new width breakpoints:<\/span><\/p>\n

Why are these important?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Starting with Android 16 QPR1 Beta 2, Android supports <\/span>connected displays<\/span><\/a>, enabling users to attach an external display to their device and transform it into a desktop-like tool with a large screen.<\/span><\/p>\n
