# Objective
The current mobile example produces an APK of 1.5 Gb.
- Running the example on a real device takes significant time (around
one minute just to copy the file over USB to my phone).
- Default virtual devices in Android studio run out of space after the
first install. This can of course be solved/configured, but it causes
unnecessary friction.
- One impression could be, that Bevy produces bloated APKs. 1.5Gb is
even double the size of debug builds for desktop examples.
## Solution
- Strip the debug symbols of the shared libraries before they are copied
to the APK
APK size after this change: 200Mb
Copy time on my machine: ~8s
## Considered alternative
APKs built in release mode are only 50Mb in size, but require setting up
signing for the profile and compile longer.
# Objective
- Have a default font
## Solution
- Add a font based on FiraMono containing only ASCII characters and use
it as the default font
- It is behind a feature `default_font` enabled by default
- I also updated examples to use it, but not UI examples to still show
how to use a custom font
---
## Changelog
* If you display text without using the default handle provided by
`TextStyle`, the text will be displayed
# Objective
- Test mobile example on real devices
## Solution
- Use [BrowserStack](https://www.browserstack.com) to have access to
[real
devices](https://www.browserstack.com/list-of-browsers-and-platforms/app_automate)
- [App Automate](https://www.browserstack.com/app-automate) to run the
example
- [App Percy](https://www.browserstack.com/app-percy) to compare the
screenshot
- Added a daily/manual CI job that will build for iOS and Android, send
the apps to BrowserStack, run the app on one iOS device and one Android
device, capture a screenshot, send it for visual validation, and archive
it in the GitHub action
Example run: https://github.com/mockersf/bevy/actions/runs/4521883534
They currently have a bug with the settings to view snapshots, they
should be public. I'll raise it to them, and if they don't fix it in
time it's possible to work around for everyone to view the results
through their API.
@cart to get this to work, you'll need
- to set up an account on BrowserStack
- add the secrets `BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME` and `BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY`
to the Bevy repo
- create a project in Percy
- add the secret `PERCY_TOKEN` to the Bevy repo and modify the project
name line 122 in the `Daily.yml` file
# Objective
There was issue #191 requesting subdivisions on the shape::Plane.
I also could have used this recently. I then write the solution.
Fixes #191
## Solution
I changed the shape::Plane to include subdivisions field and the code to create the subdivisions. I don't know how people are counting subdivisions so as I put in the doc comments 0 subdivisions results in the original geometry of the Plane.
Greater then 0 results in the number of lines dividing the plane.
I didn't know if it would be better to create a new struct that implemented this feature, say SubdivisionPlane or change Plane. I decided on changing Plane as that was what the original issue was.
It would be trivial to alter this to use another struct instead of altering Plane.
The issues of migration, although small, would be eliminated if a new struct was implemented.
## Changelog
### Added
Added subdivisions field to shape::Plane
## Migration Guide
All the examples needed to be updated to initalize the subdivisions field.
Also there were two tests in tests/window that need to be updated.
A user would have to update all their uses of shape::Plane to initalize the subdivisions field.
# Objective
- Merge the examples on iOS and Android
- Make sure they both work from the same code
## Solution
- don't create window when not in an active state (from #6830)
- exit on suspend on Android (from #6830)
- automatically enable dependency feature of bevy_audio on android so that it works out of the box
- don't inverse y position of touch events
- reuse the same example for both Android and iOS
