Build adaptive apps
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Build your app to run on form factors other than XR devices, including phones,
tablets, foldables, ChromeOS devices, car displays, and TVs. Use Compose APIs
that automatically provide different layouts and different navigation controls
for different screen sizes, shapes, and orientations.
Extend your app's usability. Optimize the user experience on every user device.
