performance - How to measure FPS on Android during app development

Question

Is there a way (maybe some apps, hacks, libs) to measure frames per second (FPS) during app development for Android?

Answer 1

You can use TinyDancer library.

Simply add code like:

public class DebugApplication extends Application {

  @Override public void onCreate() {

   // default config
   TinyDancer.create().show(this);

   //or customazed config
   TinyDancer.create()
      .redFlagPercentage(.1f) // set red indicator for 10%
      .startingGravity(Gravity.TOP)
      .startingXPosition(200)
      .startingYPosition(600)
      .show(this);
  }
}

And you'll see interactive view with information about current FPS on top of your screens.
