Extra:
MQTT - My bespoke shed alarm, controlling lighting in my house when I'm on holiday, like when I went to Jamaica and Spain this year, also controlling part of my irrigation system in the garden. I'm looking at other useful uses of MQTT and have been speaking to another developer on this great forum this week about something he is building which sounds great, I would use MQTT but he is using another solution.

And more, but I'm now going out on a quick bike ride with a friend before I drive to my better halfs house, she want me there before 9pm, hmm.

And there you have it.

Enjoy...

I like & use a lot:

server communication (OkHttpUtils & php on the backend both inhouse and hosted)
databases (SQlite for device and inhouse server solutions and MySQL for hosted solutions)
FCM (yes, one of my favourites)
UI: Mostly build on my own via Scrollviews and added views (yes, works like a charm, even big tables)
Share data between apps (yep, I have some apps like "take pictures", select x from the gallery and share it to my app to store it on my server)
Encryption (RSA, AES between app and my php backend)
Conversations (all data to all formats like convert a pic to an encrypted Base64 string and back plus JSON and others)
Random Access File for simple local storage of data
Lists/Maps: I use them a lot to exchange data between apps and my php servers
AsyncStreams (for my inhouse server solutions: B4J as the server with SQlite and several B4A clients using it)
BT: Yes, several apps using handheld scanners and BT printers
SMS: For my GPS tracker app (read SMSes with location data and show them in Google maps)
All kinds of networking incl. FTP

What I often do is to make an app to learn how a thing works
