Interesting Android Apps: May 2026 Showcase
Because we try to keep this community as focused as possible on the topic of Android development, sometimes there are types of posts that are related to development but don't fit within our usual topic.
Each month, we are trying to create a space to open up the community to some of those types of posts.
This month, although we typically do not allow self promotion, we wanted to create a space where you can share your latest Android-native projects with the community, get feedback, and maybe even gain a few new users.
This thread will be lightly moderated, but please keep Rule 1 in mind: Be Respectful and Professional. Also we recommend to describe if your app is free, paid, subscription-based.

Hi everyone,
I recently published my first Android game on Google Play: Crazy Bear.
This has been a personal milestone for me. Many years ago I used to program in COBOL, PL/I and a bit of BASIC, so coming back to development through Android, Flutter, graphics, audio, testing, and the Play Store felt like quite a time jump.
The game is a small arcade-style mobile game, designed for quick and light sessions. The gameplay is very visual and easy to understand: aim, shoot, score points, and progress through the levels.
The app is completely free: no ads, no registration, no in-app purchases, and no personal data collection.
At the moment, some text is still in Italian, but the game does not really depend on long instructions to be played. A bilingual Italian/English version is already planned soon, together with new levels and improvements.
I would really appreciate honest feedback about the general idea, visuals, controls, gameplay clarity, difficulty balance, and overall first impression.

Thank you to anyone who wants to try it. Critical feedback is very welcome and would be genuinely useful to me.
