<h3 id="MediaBrowserService"><a href="/samples/MediaBrowserService/index.html">Media Browser Service</a></h3>

<p>
This sample is a simple audio media app that exposes its media
library and provides metadata and playback controls through the new
MediaBrowserService and MediaSession APIs from API 21.
The sample is compatible with Android Auto and also provides a basic UI
when not connected to a car.

<h3 id="MessagingService"><a href="/samples/MessagingService/index.html">Messaging Service</a></h3>

<p>
This sample shows a simple service that sends notifications using
NotificationCompat. In addition to sending a notification, it also extends
the notification with a CarExtender to make it compatible with Android Auto.
Each unread conversation from a user is sent as a distinct notification.

<h3 id="SpeedTracker"><a href="/samples/SpeedTracker/index.html">Speed Tracker (Wear)</a></h3>

<p>
This sample uses the FusedLocation APIs of Google Play Services on Android Wear
devices that have a hardware GPS built in. In those cases, this sample provides
a simple screen that shows the current speed of the wearable device. User can
set a speed limit and if the speed approaches that limit, it changes the color
to yellow and if it exceeds the limit, it turns red. User can also enable
recording of coordinates and when it pairs back with the phone, this data
is synced with the phone component of the app and user can see a track
made of those coordinates on a map on the phone.
</p>


<h3 id="AppRestrictionSchema"><a href="/samples/AppRestrictionSchema/index.html">AppRestrictionSchema</a></h3>

<p>
This sample shows how to use app restrictions. This application has one boolean
restriction with a key "can_say_hello" that defines whether the only feature of this
app (press the button to show "Hello" message) is enabled or disabled. Use
AppRestrictionEnforcer sample to toggle the restriction.
</p>


<h3 id="AppRestrictionEnforcer"><a href="/samples/AppRestrictionEnforcer/index.html">AppRestrictionEnforcer</a></h3>

<p>
This sample demonstrates how to set restrictions to other apps as a profile owner.
Use AppRestrictionSchema sample as a app with available restrictions.
</p>


<h3 id="DocumentCentricRelinquishIdentity"><a href="/samples/DocumentCentricRelinquishIdentity/index.html">DocumentCentricRelinquishIdentity</a></h3>

<p>
This sample shows how to relinquish identity to activities above it in the task stack.
</p>


<h3 id="DocumentCentricApps"><a href="/samples/DocumentCentricApps/index.html">DocumentCentricApps</a></h3>

<p>
This sample shows the basic usage of the new "Document Centric Apps" API.
It let's you create new documents in the system overview menu and persists its
state through reboots. If "Task per document" is checked a new task will be
created for every new document in the overview menu.
</p>


<h3 id="HdrViewfinder"><a href="/samples/HdrViewfinder/index.html">HdrViewfinder</a></h3>

<p>
This demo implements a real-time high-dynamic-range camera viewfinder, by alternating
the sensor's exposure time between two exposure values on even and odd frames, and then
compositing together the latest two frames whenever a new frame is captured.
</p>


<h3 id="Interpolator"><a href="/samples/Interpolator/index.html">Interpolator</a></h3>

<p>
This sample demonstrates the use of animation interpolators and path animations for
Material Design. It shows how an ObjectAnimator is used to animate two properties of a
view (scale X and Y) along a path.
</p>


<h3 id="DrawableTinting"><a href="/samples/DrawableTinting/index.html">DrawableTinting</a></h3>

<p>Sample that shows applying tinting and color filters to Drawables both programmatically
and as Drawable resources in XML.</p>
<p>Tinting is set on a nine-patch drawable through the "tint" and "tintMode" parameters.
A color state list is referenced as the tint color, which defines colors for different
states of a View (for example disabled/enabled, focused, pressed or selected).</p>
<p>Programmatically, tinting is applied to a Drawable through its "setColorFilter" method,
with a reference to a color and a PorterDuff blend mode. The color and blend mode can be
changed from the UI to see the effect of different options.</p>


<h3 id="LNotifications"><a href="/samples/LNotifications/index.html">LNotifications</a></h3>

<p>
This sample demonstrates how new features for notifications introduced in Android 5.0
are used such as Heads-Up notifications, visibility, people, category and priority
metadata. </p>
