Android 14 incluye excelentes funciones y APIs para desarrolladores. La siguiente información te ayudará a obtener información sobre las funciones de tus apps y a comenzar a usar las APIs relacionadas.
Para obtener una lista detallada de las APIs agregadas, modificadas y quitadas, consulta el informe de diferencias de API. Para obtener detalles sobre las APIs agregadas, consulta la referencia de la API de Android. En el caso de Android 14, busca las APIs que se agregaron en el nivel de API 34. Para conocer las áreas en las que los cambios de la plataforma podrían afectar a tus apps, asegúrate de revisar los cambios en el comportamiento de Android 14 para apps orientadas a Android 14 y para todas las apps.
Internacionalización
Preferencias de idioma de las apps
Android 14 expands on the per-app language features that were introduced in Android 13 (API level 33) with these additional capabilities:
Automatically generate an app's
localeConfig
: Starting with Android Studio Giraffe Canary 7 and AGP 8.1.0-alpha07, you can configure your app to support per-app language preferences automatically. Based on your project resources, the Android Gradle plugin generates theLocaleConfig
file and adds a reference to it in the final manifest file, so you no longer have to create or update the file manually. AGP uses the resources in theres
folders of your app modules and any library module dependencies to determine the locales to include in theLocaleConfig
file.Dynamic updates for an app's
localeConfig
: Use thesetOverrideLocaleConfig()
andgetOverrideLocaleConfig()
methods inLocaleManager
to dynamically update your app's list of supported languages in the device's system settings. Use this flexibility to customize the list of supported languages per region, run A/B experiments, or provide an updated list of locales if your app utilizes server-side pushes for localization.App language visibility for input method editors (IMEs): IMEs can utilize the
getApplicationLocales()
method to check the language of the current app and match the IME language to that language.
API de Grammatical Inflection
3 billion people speak gendered languages: languages where grammatical categories—such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, and prepositions—inflect according to the gender of people and objects you talk to or about. Traditionally, many gendered languages use masculine grammatical gender as the default or generic gender.
Addressing users in the wrong grammatical gender, such as addressing women in masculine grammatical gender, can negatively impact their performance and attitude. In contrast, a UI with language that correctly reflects the user's grammatical gender can improve user engagement and provide a more personalized and natural-sounding user experience.
Para ayudarte a compilar una IU centrada en el usuario para idiomas con inflexión de género, Android 14 introduce la API de Grammatical Inflection, que te permite agregar compatibilidad con el género gramatical sin refactorizar la app.
Preferencias regionales
Regional preferences enable users to personalize temperature units, the first day of the week, and numbering systems. A European living in the United States might prefer temperature units to be in Celsius rather than Fahrenheit and for apps to treat Monday as the beginning of the week instead of the US default of Sunday.
New Android Settings menus for these preferences provide users with a
discoverable and centralized location to change app preferences. These
preferences also persist through backup and restore. Several APIs and
intents—such as
getTemperatureUnit
and
getFirstDayOfWeek
—
grant your app read access to user preferences, so your app can adjust how it
displays information. You can also register a
BroadcastReceiver
on
ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED
to handle locale configuration changes when regional preferences change.
To find these settings, open the Settings app and navigate to System > Languages & input > Regional preferences.
Accesibilidad
Escalamiento de fuente no lineal al 200%
A partir de Android 14, el sistema admite el escalamiento de fuente hasta el 200%, lo que les brinda a los usuarios con visión reducida opciones de accesibilidad adicionales que se alinean con las Pautas de Accesibilidad al Contenido Web (WCAG).
Para evitar que los elementos de texto grandes en la pantalla escalen demasiado, el sistema aplica una curva de escalamiento no lineal. Esta estrategia de escalamiento implica que el texto grande no escala a la misma velocidad que uno más pequeño. El escalamiento de fuente no lineal ayuda a preservar la jerarquía proporcional entre elementos de diferentes tamaños, a la vez que mitiga los problemas con el escalamiento lineal de texto en grados altos (como el texto cortado o el texto que se vuelve más difícil de leer debido a su gran tamaño de visualización).
Prueba tu app con escalamiento de fuente no lineal
Si ya usas unidades de píxeles ajustados (sp) para definir el tamaño del texto, estas opciones adicionales y mejoras de escala se aplican automáticamente al texto de tu app. Sin embargo, debes realizar pruebas de la IU con el tamaño máximo de fuente habilitado (200%) para asegurarte de que tu app aplique los tamaños de fuente correctamente y pueda adaptarse a tamaños de fuente más grandes sin afectar la usabilidad.
Para habilitar el tamaño de la fuente al 200%, sigue estos pasos:
- Abre la app de Configuración y dirígete a Accesibilidad > Tamaño y texto de la pantalla.
- En la opción Tamaño de fuente, presiona el ícono de signo más (+) hasta que se habilite la configuración de tamaño máximo de fuente, como se muestra en la imagen que acompaña esta sección.
Usa unidades de píxeles ajustados (sp) para los tamaños de texto
Recuerda siempre especificar los tamaños de texto en unidades de sp. Cuando tu app usa unidades de sp, Android puede aplicar el tamaño de texto preferido del usuario y escalarlo de forma adecuada.
No uses unidades de sp para el padding ni definas alturas de las vistas suponiendo padding implícito: con el escalamiento de fuente no lineal, las dimensiones de sp podrían no ser proporcionales, por lo que 4 sp + 20 sp podría no ser igual a 24 sp.
Convierte unidades de píxeles ajustados (sp)
Usa TypedValue.applyDimension()
para convertir unidades de sp en píxeles y TypedValue.deriveDimension()
para convertir píxeles en sp. Estos métodos aplican automáticamente la curva de escalamiento no lineal adecuada.
Evita codificar la ecuación mediante Configuration.fontScale
o DisplayMetrics.scaledDensity
. Como el escalamiento de fuente no es lineal, el campo scaledDensity
ya no es preciso. El campo fontScale
debe usarse solo con fines informativos, porque las fuentes ya no se escalan con un solo valor escalar.
Usa unidades de sp para lineHeight
Define siempre android:lineHeight
con unidades de sp en lugar de dp para que la altura de la línea se escale junto con el texto. De lo contrario, si tu texto es sp, pero tu lineHeight
está en dp o px, no se escala y parece apretado.
TextView corrige automáticamente el lineHeight
para que se conserven las proporciones previstas, pero solo si textSize
y lineHeight
se definen en unidades sp.
Cámara y contenido multimedia
Ultra HDR para imágenes
Android 14 adds support for High Dynamic Range (HDR) images that retain more of the information from the sensor when taking a photo, which enables vibrant colors and greater contrast. Android uses the Ultra HDR format, which is fully backward compatible with JPEG images, allowing apps to seamlessly interoperate with HDR images, displaying them in Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) as needed.
Rendering these images in the UI in HDR is done automatically by the framework
when your app opts in to using HDR UI for its Activity Window, either through a
manifest entry or at runtime by calling
Window.setColorMode()
. You can also capture compressed Ultra
HDR still images on supported devices. With more colors recovered
from the sensor, editing in post can be more flexible. The
Gainmap
associated with Ultra HDR images can be used to render
them using OpenGL or Vulkan.
Zoom, enfoque, vista posterior y mucho más en las extensiones de cámara
Android 14 upgrades and improves camera extensions, allowing apps to handle longer processing times, which enables improved images using compute-intensive algorithms like low-light photography on supported devices. These features give users an even more robust experience when using camera extension capabilities. Examples of these improvements include:
- Dynamic still capture processing latency estimation provides much more
accurate still capture latency estimates based on the current scene and
environment conditions. Call
CameraExtensionSession.getRealtimeStillCaptureLatency()
to get aStillCaptureLatency
object that has two latency estimation methods. ThegetCaptureLatency()
method returns the estimated latency betweenonCaptureStarted
andonCaptureProcessStarted()
, and thegetProcessingLatency()
method returns the estimated latency betweenonCaptureProcessStarted()
and the final processed frame being available. - Support for capture progress callbacks so that apps can display the current
progress of long-running, still-capture processing operations. You can check
if this feature is available with
CameraExtensionCharacteristics.isCaptureProcessProgressAvailable
, and if it is, you implement theonCaptureProcessProgressed()
callback, which has the progress (from 0 to 100) passed in as a parameter. Extension specific metadata, such as
CaptureRequest.EXTENSION_STRENGTH
for dialing in the amount of an extension effect, such as the amount of background blur withEXTENSION_BOKEH
.Postview Feature for Still Capture in camera extensions, which provides a less-processed image more quickly than the final image. If an extension has increased processing latency, a postview image could be provided as a placeholder to improve UX and switched out later for the final image. You can check if this feature is available with
CameraExtensionCharacteristics.isPostviewAvailable
. Then you can pass anOutputConfiguration
toExtensionSessionConfiguration.setPostviewOutputConfiguration
.Support for
SurfaceView
allowing for a more optimized and power-efficient preview render path.Support for tap to focus and zoom during extension usage.
Zoom en el sensor
Cuando REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_STREAM_USE_CASE
en CameraCharacteristics
contiene SCALER_AVAILABLE_STREAM_USE_CASES_CROPPED_RAW
, tu app puede usar capacidades avanzadas de sensores para otorgar los mismos píxeles a una transmisión RAW recortada los mismos píxeles que el campo visual completo mediante CaptureRequest
con un objetivo RAW que tenga el caso de uso de transmisión establecido en CameraMetadata.SCALER_AVAILABLE_STREAM_USE_CASES_CROPPED_RAW
.
Cuando se implementan los controles de anulación de solicitudes, la cámara actualizada les brinda a los usuarios control de zoom incluso antes de que estén listos otros controles de la cámara.
Audio USB sin pérdida
Android 14 gains support for lossless audio formats for audiophile-level
experiences over USB wired headsets. You can query a USB device for its
preferred mixer attributes, register a listener for changes in preferred mixer
attributes, and configure mixer attributes using the
AudioMixerAttributes
class. This class represents the
format, such as channel mask, sample rate, and behavior of the audio mixer. The
class allows for audio to be sent directly, without mixing,
volume adjustment, or processing effects.
Productividad y herramientas para desarrolladores
Credential Manager
Android 14 adds Credential Manager as a platform API, with additional support back to Android 4.4 (API level 19) devices through a Jetpack Library using Google Play services. Credential Manager aims to make sign-in easier for users with APIs that retrieve and store credentials with user-configured credential providers. Credential Manager supports multiple sign-in methods, including username and password, passkeys, and federated sign-in solutions (such as Sign-in with Google) in a single API.
Passkeys provide many advantages. For example, passkeys are built on industry standards, can work across different operating systems and browser ecosystems, and can be used with both websites and apps.
For more information, see the Credential Manager and passkeys documentation and the blogpost about Credential Manager and passkeys.
Health Connect
Health Connect is an on-device repository for user health and fitness data. It allows users to share data between their favorite apps, with a single place to control what data they want to share with these apps.
On devices running Android versions prior to Android 14, Health Connect is available to download as an app on the Google Play store. Starting with Android 14, Health Connect is part of the platform and receives updates through Google Play system updates without requiring a separate download. With this, Health Connect can be updated frequently, and your apps can rely on Health Connect being available on devices running Android 14 or higher. Users can access Health Connect from the Settings in their device, with privacy controls integrated into the system settings.
Health Connect includes several new features in Android 14, such as exercise routes, allowing users to share a route of their workout which can be visualized on a map. A route is defined as a list of locations saved within a window of time, and your app can insert routes into exercise sessions, tying them together. To ensure that users have complete control over this sensitive data, users must allow sharing individual routes with other apps.
For more information, see the Health Connection documentation and the blogpost on What's new in Android Health.
Actualizaciones de OpenJDK 17
Android 14 continues the work of refreshing Android's core libraries to align with the features in the latest OpenJDK LTS releases, including both library updates and Java 17 language support for app and platform developers.
The following features and improvements are included:
- Updated approximately 300
java.base
classes to Java 17 support. - Text Blocks, which introduce multi-line string literals to the Java programming language.
- Pattern Matching for instanceof, which allows an object to
be treated as having a specific type in an
instanceof
without any additional variables. - Sealed classes, which allow you restrict which classes and interfaces can extend or implement them.
Thanks to Google Play system updates (Project Mainline), over 600 million devices are enabled to receive the latest Android Runtime (ART) updates that include these changes. This is part of our commitment to give apps a more consistent, secure environment across devices, and to deliver new features and capabilities to users independent of platform releases.

Mejoras para tiendas de aplicaciones
Android 14 introduces several PackageInstaller
APIs that
allow app stores to improve their user experience.
Request install approval before downloading
Installing or updating an app might require user approval.
For example, when an installer making use of the
REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES
permission attempts to install a
new app. In prior Android versions, app stores can only request user approval
after APKs are written to the install session and the
session is committed.
Starting with Android 14, the requestUserPreapproval()
method lets installers request user approval before committing the install
session. This improvement lets an app store defer downloading any APKs until
after the installation has been approved by the user. Furthermore, once a user
has approved installation, the app store can download and install the app in the
background without interrupting the user.
Claim responsibility for future updates
The setRequestUpdateOwnership()
method allows an installer
to indicate to the system that it intends to be responsible for future updates
to an app it is installing. This capability enables update ownership
enforcement, meaning that only the update owner is permitted
to install automatic updates to the app. Update ownership enforcement helps to
ensure that users receive updates only from the expected app store.
Any other installer, including those making use of the
INSTALL_PACKAGES
permission, must receive explicit user
approval in order to install an update. If a user decides to proceed with an
update from another source, update ownership is lost.
Update apps at less-disruptive times
App stores typically want to avoid updating an app that is actively in use because this leads to the app's running processes being killed, which potentially interrupts what the user was doing.
Starting with Android 14, the InstallConstraints
API
gives installers a way to ensure that their app updates happen at an opportune
moment. For example, an app store can call the
commitSessionAfterInstallConstraintsAreMet()
method to
make sure that an update is only committed when the user is no longer
interacting with the app in question.
Seamlessly install optional splits
With split APKs, features of an app can be delivered in separate APK files,
rather than as a monolithic APK. Split APKs allow app stores to optimize the
delivery of different app components. For example, app stores might optimize
based on the properties of the target device. The
PackageInstaller
API has supported splits since its
introduction in API level 22.
In Android 14, the setDontKillApp()
method allows an
installer to indicate that the app's running processes shouldn't be killed when
new splits are installed. App stores can use this feature to seamlessly install
new features of an app while the user is using the app.
Paquetes de metadatos de la app
A partir de Android 14, el instalador del paquete de Android te permite especificar metadatos de la app, como las prácticas de seguridad de los datos, para incluir en las páginas de la tienda de aplicaciones, como Google Play.
Detecta cuando los usuarios toman capturas de pantalla del dispositivo
Para crear una experiencia más estandarizada para detectar capturas de pantalla, Android 14 presenta una API de detección de capturas de pantalla que preserva la privacidad. Esta API permite que las apps registren devoluciones de llamada por actividad. Estas devoluciones de llamada se invocan, y el usuario recibe una notificación cuando toma una captura de pantalla mientras esa actividad está visible.
Experiencia del usuario
Acciones personalizadas y clasificación mejorada de Sharesheet
Android 14 updates the system sharesheet to support custom app actions and more informative preview results for users.
Add custom actions
With Android 14, your app can add custom actions to the system sharesheet it invokes.
Improve ranking of Direct Share targets
Android 14 uses more signals from apps to determine the ranking of the direct share targets to provide more helpful results for the user. To provide the most useful signal for ranking, follow the guidance for improving rankings of your Direct Share targets. Communication apps can also report shortcut usage for outgoing and incoming messages.
Compatibilidad con animaciones integradas y personalizadas para el gesto atrás predictivo
Android 13 在开发者选项背后引入了预测性“返回主屏幕”动画。在已启用开发者选项的受支持应用中使用时,滑回手势会显示动画,表明返回手势会使应用退回到主屏幕。
Android 14 包含针对“预测性返回”的多项改进和新指南:
- 您可设置
android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback=true
,以便为每个 activity 选择启用预测性返回系统动画,而不是为整个应用选择启用。 - 我们添加了新的系统动画,以配合 Android 13 中的“返回主屏幕”动画。新的系统动画是跨 activity 和跨任务的,您可在迁移到预测性返回后自动获得该动画。
- 我们为底部动作条、侧边动作条和搜索添加了新的 Material 组件动画。
- 我们制作了有关如何创建自定义应用内动画和转换的设计指南。
- 我们添加了许多新 API 来支持自定义的应用内转换动画:
在此 Android 14 预览版中,所有预测性返回功能都是位于开发者选项背后。请参阅与将您的应用迁移到预测性返回有关的开发者指南,以及与创建自定义应用内转换有关的开发者指南。
Anulaciones por app del fabricante de dispositivos con pantalla grande
Las anulaciones por app permiten que los fabricantes de dispositivos cambien el comportamiento de las apps en dispositivos con pantallas grandes. Por ejemplo, la anulación FORCE_RESIZE_APP
le indica al sistema que cambie el tamaño de la app para que se ajuste a las dimensiones de la pantalla (evitando el modo de compatibilidad de tamaño) incluso si se configuró resizeableActivity="false"
en el manifiesto de la app.
Las anulaciones están diseñadas para mejorar la experiencia del usuario en pantallas grandes.
Las nuevas propiedades del manifiesto te permiten inhabilitar algunas anulaciones del fabricante de dispositivos para tu app.
Anulaciones por app para usuarios de pantallas grandes
Per-app overrides change the behavior of apps on large screen devices. For example, the OVERRIDE_MIN_ASPECT_RATIO_LARGE
device manufacturer override sets the app aspect ratio to 16:9 regardless of the app's configuration.
Android 14 QPR1 enables users to apply per‑app overrides by means of a new settings menu on large screen devices.
Compartir pantalla de una app
应用屏幕共享功能让用户能够在录制屏幕内容期间共享应用窗口,而非整个设备屏幕。
使用应用屏幕共享时,状态栏、导航栏、通知和其他系统界面元素会从共享显示屏中排除。系统只会分享所选应用的内容。
应用屏幕共享可让用户运行多个应用,但仅限单个应用共享内容,从而提高效率和隐私性。

Next, open a conversation in a supported app to see LLM-powered Smart Reply in Gboard's suggestion strip in response to incoming messages.
Gráficos
Las rutas de acceso son interpolables y consultables
La API de Path
de Android es un mecanismo potente y flexible para crear y renderizar gráficos vectoriales, con la capacidad de dibujar o rellenar una ruta, construir una ruta a partir de segmentos de línea o curvas cuadráticas o cúbicas, realizar operaciones booleanas para obtener formas aún más complejas o todas estas acciones de forma simultánea. Una limitación es la capacidad de descubrir lo que hay realmente en un objeto Path; los componentes internos del objeto son opacos para los llamadores después de su creación.
Para crear un Path
, debes llamar a métodos como moveTo()
, lineTo()
y cubicTo()
para agregar segmentos de ruta. Sin embargo, no hay forma de preguntarle a esa ruta cuáles son los segmentos, por lo que debes conservar esa información en el momento de la creación.
A partir de Android 14, puedes consultar rutas de acceso para descubrir su contenido.
Primero, debes obtener un objeto PathIterator
con la API de Path.getPathIterator
:
Kotlin
val path = Path().apply { moveTo(1.0f, 1.0f) lineTo(2.0f, 2.0f) close() } val pathIterator = path.pathIterator
Java
Path path = new Path(); path.moveTo(1.0F, 1.0F); path.lineTo(2.0F, 2.0F); path.close(); PathIterator pathIterator = path.getPathIterator();
A continuación, puedes llamar a PathIterator
para iterar a través de los segmentos uno por uno y recuperar todos los datos necesarios de cada segmento. En este ejemplo, se usan objetos PathIterator.Segment
, que agrupan los datos por ti:
Kotlin
for (segment in pathIterator) { println("segment: ${segment.verb}, ${segment.points}") }
Java
while (pathIterator.hasNext()) { PathIterator.Segment segment = pathIterator.next(); Log.i(LOG_TAG, "segment: " + segment.getVerb() + ", " + segment.getPoints()); }
PathIterator
también tiene una versión de next()
no asignable en la que puedes pasar un búfer para contener los datos de puntos.
Uno de los casos de uso importantes para consultar datos de Path
es la interpolación. Por ejemplo, podrías animar (o transformar) entre dos rutas diferentes. Para simplificar aún más ese caso de uso, Android 14 también incluye el método interpolate()
en Path
. Si suponemos que las dos rutas de acceso tienen la misma estructura interna, el método interpolate()
crea un Path
nuevo con ese resultado interpolado. En este ejemplo, se muestra una ruta cuya forma está incompleta (una interpolación lineal de 0.5) entre path
y otherPath
:
Kotlin
val interpolatedResult = Path() if (path.isInterpolatable(otherPath)) { path.interpolate(otherPath, .5f, interpolatedResult) }
Java
Path interpolatedResult = new Path(); if (path.isInterpolatable(otherPath)) { path.interpolate(otherPath, 0.5F, interpolatedResult); }
La biblioteca graphics-path de Jetpack también habilita APIs similares para versiones anteriores de Android.
Mallas personalizadas con sombreadores de vértices y fragmentos
Android has long supported drawing triangle meshes with custom shading, but the input mesh format has been limited to a few predefined attribute combinations. Android 14 adds support for custom meshes, which can be defined as triangles or triangle strips, and can, optionally, be indexed. These meshes are specified with custom attributes, vertex strides, varying, and vertex and fragment shaders written in AGSL.
The vertex shader defines the varyings, such as position and color, while the
fragment shader can optionally define the color for the pixel, typically by
using the varyings created by the vertex shader. If color is provided by the
fragment shader, it is then blended with the current Paint
color using the blend mode selected when
drawing the mesh. Uniforms can be passed
into the fragment and vertex shaders for additional flexibility.
Renderizador de búfer de hardware para Canvas
To assist in using Android's Canvas
API to draw with
hardware acceleration into a HardwareBuffer
, Android 14
introduces HardwareBufferRenderer
. This API is
particularly useful when your use case involves communication with the system
compositor through SurfaceControl
for low-latency
drawing.
