As we approach the end of this book, it's time to add the finishing touches to your application before releasing it to the Play Store. The recipes in this chapter cover the topics that can make a difference between users keeping your app or removing it.
Our first recipe, The Android 6.0 Runtime permission model, is certainly an important topic, possibly being the primary reason Android went from version 5.x to version 6! Changes to the Android permission model have been requested for some time, so this new model is a welcome change, at least for users.
Next, we'll take a look at alarms in How to schedule an alarm. One of the primary benefits of alarms is that the OS is responsible for maintaining the alarm, even when your application is not running. Since alarms do not persist after rebooting the device, we'll also look at how to detect a device reboot so you can recreate your alarms in Receiving notification of device boot.
