How ADB Wifi 2.0 works
summary
Android 17 rewrites ADB Wi‑Fi so TLS pairing actually auto reconnects and platform-side bugs are fixed: the device auto‑reenable on trusted Wi‑Fi when network returns, Android Studio now shows a browsable device list and metadata like device name, and ADB 37 drops third‑party deps for a small Rust 4,000‑line mDNS implementation. The platform uses Android NSD manager instead of Apple mDNS, burst mode lands (30% faster installs when enabled), and much more test and sanitiser work improves stability.
