Devices reach more than 250 million large‑screen Android devices and tablet sales grew about 16% in 2020 with an estimated 30 million foldables coming soon, so expect multiwindow and landscape use. Practical additions include SlidingPaneLayout 1.2.0 (fold‑aware two‑pane logic and lock modes), NavigationRail and max‑width material props, WindowManager Jetpack (display features, WindowMetrics) and ConstraintLayout 2.1 with ReactiveGuides and MotionLayout animations to handle folds and tabletop mode.
