동작 변경사항: Android 17 이상을 타겟팅하는 앱

이전 버전과 마찬가지로 Android 17에는 앱에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 동작 변경사항이 포함되어 있습니다. 다음 동작 변경사항은 Android 17 이상을 타겟팅하는 앱에만 적용됩니다. 앱이 Android 17 이상을 타겟팅한다면 이러한 동작을 지원하도록 앱을 수정해야 합니다(적용되는 경우).

앱의 targetSdkVersion과 관계없이 Android 17에서 실행되는 모든 앱에 영향을 미치는 동작 변경사항 목록도 검토해야 합니다.

핵심 기능

Android 17에는 Android 시스템의 다양한 핵심 기능을 수정하거나 확장하는 다음과 같은 변경사항이 포함되어 있습니다.

MessageQueue의 새로운 잠금 없는 구현

Beginning with Android 17, apps targeting Android 17 (API level 37) or higher receive a new lock-free implementation of android.os.MessageQueue. The new implementation improves performance and reduces missed frames, but may break clients that reflect on MessageQueue private fields and methods.

For more information, including mitigation strategies, see MessageQueue behavior change guidance.

이제 정적 최종 필드를 수정할 수 없음

Apps running on Android 17 or higher that target Android 17 (API level 37) or higher cannot change static final fields. If an app attempts to change a static final field by using reflection, it will cause an IllegalAccessException. Attempting to modify one of these fields through JNI APIs (such as SetStaticLongField()) will cause the app to crash.

접근성

Android 17에서는 접근성을 개선하기 위해 다음과 같은 변경사항을 적용합니다.

복잡한 IME 실제 키보드 입력의 접근성 지원

This feature introduces new AccessibilityEvent and TextAttribute APIs to enhance screen reader spoken feedback for CJKV language input. CJKV IME apps can now signal whether a text conversion candidate has been selected during text composition. Apps with edit fields can specify text change types when sending text changed accessibility events. For example, apps can specify that a text change occurred during text composition, or that a text change resulted from a commit. Doing this enables accessibility services such as screen readers to deliver more precise feedback based on the nature of the text modification.

App adoption

  • IME Apps: When setting composing text in edit fields, IMEs can use TextAttribute.Builder.setTextSuggestionSelected() to indicate whether a specific conversion candidate was selected.

  • Apps with Edit Fields: Apps that maintain a custom InputConnection can retrieve candidate selection data by calling TextAttribute.isTextSuggestionSelected(). These apps should then call AccessibilityEvent.setTextChangeTypes() when dispatching TYPE_VIEW_TEXT_CHANGED events. Apps targeting Android 17 (API level 37) that use the standard TextView will have this feature enabled by default. (That is, TextView will handle retrieving data from the IME and setting text change types when sending events to accessibility services).

  • Accessibility Services: Accessibility services that process TYPE_VIEW_TEXT_CHANGED events can call AccessibilityEvent.getTextChangeTypes() to identify the nature of the modification and adjust their feedback strategies accordingly.

개인 정보 보호

Android 17에는 사용자 개인 정보 보호를 개선하기 위해 다음과 같은 변경사항이 포함되어 있습니다.

ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) 사용 설정

Android 17 introduces platform support for Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), a TLS extension that enhances user privacy by encrypting the Server Name Indication (SNI) in the TLS handshake. This encryption helps prevent network observers from easily identifying the specific domain your app is connecting to.

For apps targeting Android 17 (API level 37) or higher, ECH is used for TLS connections. ECH is active only if the networking library used by the app (for example, HttpEngine, WebView, or OkHttp) has integrated ECH support and the remote server also supports the ECH protocol. If ECH cannot be negotiated, the client sends an ECH extension with randomized contents (a mechanism called ECH GREASE). See RFC 9849 for more details on how ECH GREASE works.

To allow apps to customize this behavior, Android 17 adds a new <domainEncryption> element to the Network Security Configuration file. Developers can use <domainEncryption> within <base-config> or <domain-config> tags to select an ECH mode (for example, "enabled" or "disabled") on a global or per-domain basis.

For more information, see the Encrypted Client Hello documentation.

Android 17을 타겟팅하는 앱에 로컬 네트워크 권한 필요

Android 17 introduces the ACCESS_LOCAL_NETWORK runtime permission to protect users from unauthorized local network access. Because this falls under the existing NEARBY_DEVICES permission group, users who have already granted other NEARBY_DEVICES permissions aren't prompted again. This new requirement prevents malicious apps from exploiting unrestricted local network access for covert user tracking and fingerprinting. By declaring and requesting this permission, your app can discover and connect to devices on the local area network (LAN), such as smart home devices or casting receivers.

Apps targeting Android 17 (API level 37) or higher now have two paths to maintain communication with LAN devices: Adopt system-mediated, privacy-preserving device pickers to skip the permission prompt, or explicitly request this new permission at runtime to maintain local network communication.

For more information, see the Local network permission documentation.

실제 기기에서 비밀번호 숨기기

如果应用以 Android 17(API 级别 37)或更高版本为目标平台,并且用户使用的是实体输入设备(例如外接键盘),Android 操作系统会对密码字段中的所有字符应用新的 show_passwords_physical 设置。默认情况下,该设置会隐藏所有密码字符。

Android 系统会显示用户最后输入的密码字符,以帮助用户查看是否输错了密码。不过,对于较大的外接键盘,此功能就没那么必要了。此外,配备外接键盘的设备通常具有较大的显示屏,这会增加他人看到输入密码的风险。

如果用户使用的是设备触摸屏,系统会应用新的 show_passwords_touch 设置。

표준 SMS 메시지의 OTP 보호

Beginning with Android 17, Android is extending its SMS OTP protection to apply to standard SMS messages (SMS messages containing an OTP that do not use the WebOTP or SMS Retriever formats). For most apps targeting Android 17 (API level 37) or higher, these SMS messages do not become available until three hours after receipt. This delay is intended to help prevent OTP hijacking. During this three hour delay, the SMS_RECEIVED_ACTION broadcast is withheld and SMS provider database queries are filtered. The SMS message is available to these apps after the delay.

Certain apps such as the default SMS assistant app, connected device companion apps, etc., are exempted from this delay. All apps that rely on reading SMS messages for OTP extraction should transition to using SMS Retriever or SMS User Consent APIs to ensure continued functionality.

보안

Android 17에서는 기기 및 앱 보안을 다음과 같이 개선합니다.

활동 보안

In Android 17, the platform continues its shift toward a "secure-by-default" architecture, introducing a suite of enhancements designed to mitigate high-severity exploits such as phishing, interaction hijacking, and confused deputy attacks. This update requires developers to explicitly opt in to new security standards to maintain app compatibility and user protection.

Key impacts for developers include:

  • BAL hardening & improved opt-in: We are refining Background Activity Launch (BAL) restrictions by extending protections to IntentSender. Developers must migrate away from the legacy MODE_BACKGROUND_ACTIVITY_START_ALLOWED constant. Instead, you should adopt granular controls like MODE_BACKGROUND_ACTIVITY_START_ALLOW_IF_VISIBLE, which restricts activity starts to scenarios where the calling app is visible, significantly reducing the attack surface.
  • Adoption tools: Developers should utilize strict mode and updated lint checks to identify legacy patterns and ensure readiness for future target SDK requirements.

기본적으로 CT 사용 설정

If an app targets Android 17 (API level 37) or higher, certificate transparency (CT) is enabled by default. (On Android 16, CT is available but apps had to opt in.)

더 안전한 네이티브 DCL—C

If your app targets Android 17 (API level 37) or higher, the Safer Dynamic Code Loading (DCL) protection introduced in Android 14 for DEX and JAR files now extends to native libraries.

All native files loaded using System.load() must be marked as read-only. Otherwise, the system throws UnsatisfiedLinkError.

We recommend that apps avoid dynamically loading code whenever possible, as doing so greatly increases the risk that an app can be compromised by code injection or code tampering.

CP2 데이터 뷰에서 PII 필드 제한

For apps targeting Android 17 (API level Android 17 (API level 37)) and higher, Contacts Provider 2 (CP2) restricts certain columns containing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from the data view. When this change is enabled, these columns are removed from the data view to enhance user privacy. The restricted columns include:

Apps that are using these columns from ContactsContract.Data can extract them from ContactsContract.RawContacts instead, by joining with RAW_CONTACT_ID.

CP2에서 엄격한 SQL 검사 적용

对于以 Android 17(API 级别 37)及更高版本为目标平台的应用,当在没有 READ_CONTACTS 权限的情况下访问 ContactsContract.Data 表时,联系人提供程序 2 (CP2) 会强制执行严格的 SQL 查询验证。

在此项更改生效后,如果应用没有 READ_CONTACTS 权限,则在查询 ContactsContract.Data 表时会设置 StrictColumnsStrictGrammar 选项。如果查询使用的模式与这些模式不兼容,则会被拒绝并导致抛出异常。

미디어

Android 17에는 미디어 동작에 다음과 같은 변경사항이 포함되어 있습니다.

백그라운드 오디오 강화

Beginning with Android 17, the audio framework enforces restrictions on background audio interactions including audio playback, audio focus requests, and volume change APIs to ensure that these changes are started intentionally by the user.

Some audio restrictions apply to all apps. However, the restrictions are more stringent if an app targets Android 17 (API level 37). If one of these apps interacts with audio while it is in the background, it must have a foreground service running. In addition, the app must meet one or both of these requirements:

  • The foreground service must have while-in-use (WIU) capabilities.
  • The app must have the exact alarm permission and be interacting with USAGE_ALARM audio streams.

For more information, including mitigation strategies, see Background audio hardening.

기기 폼 팩터

Android 17에는 다양한 기기 크기와 폼 팩터에서 사용자 환경을 개선하기 위해 다음과 같은 변경사항이 포함되어 있습니다.

대형 화면 (sw>=600dp)에서 방향, 크기 조절, 가로세로 비율 제약을 무시하는 플랫폼 API 변경사항

We introduced Platform API changes in Android 16 to ignore orientation, aspect ratio, and resizability restrictions on large screens (sw >= 600dp) for apps targeting API level 36 or higher. Developers have the option to opt out of these changes with SDK 36, but this opt-out will no longer be available for apps that target Android 17 (API level 37) or higher.

For more information, see Restrictions on orientation and resizability are ignored.

연결

Android 17에서는 일관성을 개선하고 블루투스 RFCOMM 소켓의 표준 자바 InputStream 동작과 일치하도록 다음과 같은 변경사항을 도입합니다.

RFCOMM의 일관된 BluetoothSocket read() 동작

Android 17 (API 수준 37)을 타겟팅하는 앱의 경우 RFCOMM 기반 BluetoothSocket에서 가져온 InputStreamread() 메서드가 이제 소켓이 닫히거나 연결이 끊어지면 -1를 반환합니다.

이 변경사항은 RFCOMM 소켓 동작을 LE CoC 소켓과 일치시키고 스트림 끝에 도달하면 -1이 반환된다고 명시된 표준 InputStream.read() 문서와 일치합니다.

IOException을 포착하여 읽기 루프에서 벗어나는 데만 의존하는 앱은 이 변경사항의 영향을 받을 수 있으므로 BluetoothSocket 읽기 루프를 업데이트하여 -1의 반환 값을 명시적으로 확인해야 합니다. 이렇게 하면 원격 기기가 연결 해제되거나 소켓이 닫힐 때 루프가 올바르게 종료됩니다. 권장 구현의 예는 블루투스 데이터 전송 가이드의 코드 스니펫을 참고하세요.
