Expand description

Indicates what hardware and software features the application requires.

For example, an application might specify that it requires a physical keyboard or a particular navigation device, like a trackball. The specification is used to avoid installing the application on devices where it will not work.

Note

Most apps should not use this manifest tag . You should always support input with a directional pad (d-pad) in order to assist sight-impaired users and support devices that provide d-pad input in addition to or instead of touch. information about how to support d-pad input in your app, read Enabling Focus Navigation. If your app absolutely cannot function without a touchscreen, then instead use the <uses-feature> tag to declare the required touchscreen type, ranging from "android.hardware.faketouch" for basic touch-style events to more advanced touch types such as "android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.jazzhand" for distinct input from multiple fingers.

Fields

req_five_way_nav: Option<bool>

Whether or not the application requires a five-way navigation control — "true" if it does, and "false" if not. A five-way control is one that can move the selection up, down, right, or left, and also provides a way of invoking the current selection. It could be a D-pad (directional pad), trackball, or other device.

If an application requires a directional control, but not a control of a particular type, it can set this attribute to “true” and ignore the reqNavigation attribute. However, if it requires a particular type of directional control, it can ignore this attribute and set reqNavigation instead.

req_hard_keyboard: Option<bool>

Whether or not the application requires a hardware keyboard — "true" if it does, and "false" if not.

req_keyboard_type: Option<ReqKeyboardType>

The type of keyboard the application requires, if any at all. This attribute does not distinguish between hardware and software keyboards. If a hardware keyboard of a certain type is required, specify the type here and also set the reqHardKeyboard attribute to "true".

req_navigation: Option<ReqNavigation>

The navigation device required by the application, if any.

If an application requires a navigational control, but the exact type of control doesn’t matter, it can set the reqFiveWayNav attribute to “true” rather than set this one.

req_touch_screen: Option<ReqTouchScreen>

The type of touch screen the application requires, if any at all.
