Deep Android Integrations
summary
Practical how‑tos and concrete implementations: building HTTP and app‑scheme deep links that survive install flows and Play Store referrers, implementing native single sign‑on with package and certificate checks, exposing data via a content provider for batch uploads, wiring an Android sync adapter and AccountManager for authenticated syncing, and using AIDL for IPC. Examples include an Uber deep‑link/native SSO rollout and an Evernote ↔ Samsung S Note integration; deployed approaches work but require strict fingerprint validation and jittered sync schedules.
