Find and Fix MEMORY LEAKS with Leak Canary in Android 👀

A memory leak happens when the garbage collector does not free up an object in your app that can't be used anymore. So RAM for that object is wasted.
In this video, you'll learn how you can find such memory leaks in your Android app using Leak Canary and how to fix them afterwards.

another video on figuring out where the leaks are actually coming from would be very helpful

Hi Phillip, do you have a plan to make a course about "Photos feature"(Like iOS Photos)? I think there are a lot of points that can learn from. Like gesture, zoom, animation, recyclerView, various layout handle and how to handle 200k data in list. I think this is more related real dev and will be a very useful course.

Thanks Philip for helping the android developers like us to stay updated. Awsome Info

[@chuka_obi5167]

Just got your new course! Very excited to get started learning about multi-module apps and also canvas too!

[@BaldingEagle51]

Greetings. :) Three things are missing to deliver on the "fix" in the video title. You're not explaining 1. how to go from the issue dump to the fix 2. where to add the fix code 3. you don't write the fix code 3=after doing the steps in the video, the source is left in an unfixed state. I think you need to also fix it to get the rumored certificate. Do you have one?

[@Alchemist10241]

Well done. - detecting memory leaks in on click ✔

[@deepeshkumar1704]

Then what is the solution, if i have to use MainActivity context in Second Activity (I think this is not a good question but. ) or if any static method/Utils Class method needs context of second activity, and if i back to Main Activity, how to prevent memory leak? pls reply

[@m0tivati0n71]

Phillip, thank you for the great content! I checked out your link and I'd buy your course but I'm only interested in the "Building Industry-Level Apps With Multi-Module Architecture" and it seems that it's only available in the bundle. Perhaps you will change your mind about that and make it available on its own as well. Thanks again!

[@PhilippLackner]

Hi, that's not correct, you can very well buy it alone :) Here's the link: elopage.com/s/philipplackner/building-industry-level-apps-with-multi-module-architecture/payment?locale=en Just ignore the extra options it offers, scroll completely down and you're good :)

[@razvanalinbalan4215]

@@PhilippLackner Ah, got it! Maybe add checks for all of them for better UX, didn't realize the amount was already selected. Thank you!

[@razvanalinbalan4215]

[@footballCartoon91]

damn when i try to watch android tutorial in kotlin .. there are always keyword or operator that i did not understand what is "::" ? what is "it" ?

[@alexandernifanin7366]

This example doesn't show how to fix real apps. Nobody usually makes such a mistake, but a memory leak appears.

[@wernerdittmann7579]

Well, if you used the Application context instead of the Activity's context you would not see a memory leak😉.

[@PhilippLackner]

Yeah and i could successfully not demonstrate this here in a simple way

[@kishorramani007]

Hi, How to remove leak canary from release app?

[@koweratus]
