Diffacto: Android SDK releases, with receipts
Diffacto tracks Android advertising and mediation SDK releases, explaining what changed, what developers may need to test, and what remains unknown.
- For
- Android ad SDK integrators and release maintainers
- Worth noticing
- It explicitly treats unexamined areas as unknown and preserves meaningful “no change” findings within the areas it examines.
Field notes
The site says it compares each watched release with its predecessor, while the release archive organizes stable Android SDK versions by Maven publication week, minSdk, permissions, and dependencies. Its research framework separates artifact evidence, controlled experiments, and vendor documentation; it also says routine compiler markers, obfuscation churn, and build-ID-only shifts are filtered rather than reported as discoveries. Mediation adapter support and a Gradle-dependency check are listed, along with a read-only CI API described as part of All Access.
