Note: For cross-platform Projects, use the UNITY_ANDROID
#define directive to conditionally compile Android-specific C# code. See documentation on Platform dependent compilation to learn more.
Apps can access most features of an Android device through the Input and Handheld classes. For more information, see:
You can trigger a vibration by calling Handheld.Vibrate. Devices without vibration hardware ignore this call.
Mobile operating systems have built-in activity indicators your app can use during slow operations. For more information, see Handheld.StartActivityIndicator.
To access device-specific properties, use these scriptsA piece of code that allows you to create your own Components, trigger game events, modify Component properties over time and respond to user input in any way you like. More info
See in Glossary:
Script | Device property |
---|---|
SystemInfo.deviceUniqueIdentifier | Always returns the md5 of ANDROID_ID . For more information, see Android developer documentation on ANDROID_ID. |
