And now, you can check out Play Policy Insights beta in the Android Studio Narwhal Feature Drop Canary release . Play Policy Insights beta in Android Studio shows rich, in-context guidance How to use Play Policy Insights beta in Android Studio 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 permission, then the Photos & Video Insights lint warning will appear under the respective API call line item in Android Studio. You can also get these insights by going to Code > Inspect for Play Policy Insights 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 .

We’d love to hear about: How will this change your current Android app development and Google Play Store submission workflow? Which was more helpful in addressing issues: lint warnings in the IDE or lint warnings from CI build? What was most helpful in the policy guidance, and what could be improved? Developers have told us they like: Catching potential Google Play policy issues early, right in their code, so they can build more efficiently.
