WorkManager makes it easier to schedule asynchronous work at a more appropriate time using a fluent, chainable API. Think of it as JobScheduler (in fact it uses JobScheduler internally when present), but handling situations and devices that don't have a recent enough version of the OS to have the JobScheduler API available.<br /> Go get WorkManager and try it out - we'd love to get feedback on it as we iterate toward 1.0.<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: left;">Subscribe to the <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage" target="_blank">podcast feed</a> or download the <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/androiddevelopers/android_developers_backstage/ADB%2093%20Work%20Manager.mp3" target="_blank">audio file</a> directly.</div> <br /> <br /> <b>Links</b>:<br /> I/O Video: <a href="https://youtu.be/IrKoBFLwTN0">Easy background processing with WorkManager</a><br /> Article: <a href="https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/workmanager">Schedule tasks with WorkManager</a><br /> <a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/work/WorkManager"> Reference docs</a><br /> <a href="https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/android-workmanager/#0"> Codelab</a><br /> <br /> <b>Sumir</b>: <a href="https://twitter.com/SumirKodes">@SumirKodes</a><br /> <b>Tor</b>: <a href="http://google.com/+TorNorbye">google.com/+TorNorbye</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/tornorbye" target="_blank">@tornorbye</a><br /> <b>Chet</b>: <a href="http://google.com/+ChetHaase">google.com/+ChetHaase</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/chethaase" target="_blank">@chethaase</a><br /> <br /> <i>Thanks to continued tolerance and support by our audio engineer, Bryan Gordon.</i><br /> <br /></div> <img alt="" height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage/~4/CSx3k3BR5mI" width="1" />
