The process of monitoring the user experience of native mobile applications is different from monitoring browser-based web applications. This is because mobile app monitoring involves the compilation, packaging, and shipment of a monitoring library along with your own mobile application package.
To leverage Dynatrace for your Android app, check the get started guide for an overview of the required steps.
You can also explore our new demo mobile application to get a feel of how the instrumentation with Dynatrace works. This sample application showcases the main features provided by the Dynatrace Android Gradle Plugin and the OneAgent SDK for Android.
Jetpack Compose auto-instrumentation is enabled by default starting with Dynatrace Android Gradle plugin version 8.271.
We no longer support Java 8 for the Dynatrace Android Gradle plugin version 8.261+, as Java 11 is required for the latest version of the Android Gradle plugin API.
