Show whether a network is detected as metered or not

Open uski opened this issue 4 months ago • 0 comments

Android provides an option for a user to say whether a network is metered or not, or, to auto-detect it.

Unfortunately, when set to auto-detection, the Android OS UI does not provide any way to confirm what was detected by the OS.

The Android OS API allows to know what is detected using a capability: https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/connectivity-status-type

NetworkCapabilities#NET_CAPABILITY_NOT_METERED

Would it be possible to add this capability to the app? Just display a flag (a dollar sign for instance?) when the connection is detected as metered?

Thanks
