## 6.2\. Developer Options
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Android includes support for developers to configure application
|
||
|
|
development-related settings.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Device implementations MUST provide a consistent experience for
|
||
|
|
Developer Options, they:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* [C-0-1] MUST honor the [android.settings.APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS](
|
||
|
|
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html#ACTION_APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS)
|
||
|
|
intent to show application development-related settings. The upstream Android
|
||
|
|
implementation hides the Developer Options menu by default and enables users to
|
||
|
|
launch Developer Options after pressing seven (7) times on the **Settings** >
|
||
|
|
**About Device** > **Build Number** menu item.
|
||
|
|
* [C-0-2] MUST hide Developer Options by default.
|
||
|
|
* [C-0-3] MUST provide a clear mechanism that does not give preferential
|
||
|
|
treatment to one third-party app as opposed to another to enable Developer
|
||
|
|
Options. MUST provide a public visible document or website that describes how to
|
||
|
|
enable Developer Options. This document or website MUST be linkable from
|
||
|
|
the Android SDK documents.
|
||
|
|
* SHOULD have an ongoing visual notification to the user when Developer
|
||
|
|
Options is enabled and the safety of the user is of concern.
|
||
|
|
* MAY temporarily limit access to the Developer Options menu, by visually
|
||
|
|
hiding or disabling the menu, to prevent distraction for scenarios where the
|
||
|
|
safety of the user is of concern.
