Open Video Call for Android

English | 中文

The Open Video Call for Android Sample App is an open-source demo that will help you get video chat integrated directly into your Android applications using the Agora Video SDK.

With this sample app, you can:

Join / leave channel
Mute / unmute audio
Enable / disable video
Switch camera
Setup resolution, frame rate and bit rate
Enable encryption
Enable beautify filter

Prerequisites

Android Studio 3.3 or above
Real devices (Nexus 5X or other devices)
Some simulators are function missing or have performance issue, so real device is the best choice

Quick Start

This section shows you how to prepare, build, and run the sample application.

Obtain an App ID

To build and run the sample application, get an App ID:

Create a developer account at agora.io. Once you finish the signup process, you will be redirected to the Dashboard.
Navigate in the Dashboard tree on the left to Projects > Project List.
Save the App ID from the Dashboard for later use.
Generate a temp Access Token (valid for 24 hours) from dashboard page with given channel name, save for later use.
Update "app/src/main/res/values/strings_config.xml" with your App ID and Token.

<string name="private_app_id"><#YOUR APP ID#></string>
<!-- Please leave it if not enable App Certificate -->
<!-- You can generate a temporary token at https://dashboard.agora.io/projects -->
<string name="agora_access_token"><#YOUR TOKEN#></string>

To ensure communication security, Agora uses tokens (dynamic keys) to authenticate users joining a channel.

Temporary tokens are for demonstration and testing purposes only and remain valid for 24 hours. In a production environment, you need to deploy your own server for generating tokens. See [Generate a Token](https://docs.agora.io/en/Interactive Broadcast/token_server)for details.

Integrate the Agora Video SDK

The SDK must be integrated into the sample project before it can opened and built. There are two methods for integrating the Agora Video SDK into the sample project. The first method uses JCenter to automatically integrate the SDK files. The second method requires you to manually copy the SDK files to the project.

Method 1 - Integrate the SDK Automatically Using JCenter (Recommended)

Clone this repository.
Open app/build.gradle and add the following line to the dependencies list:

...
dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'io.agora.rtc:full-sdk:3.+'
}

Method 2 - Manually copy the SDK files

Download the Agora Video SDK from Agora.io SDK.
Unzip the downloaded SDK package.
Copy the following files from from the libs folder of the downloaded SDK package:

Copy from SDK	Copy to Project Folder
.jar file	/apps/libs folder
arm64-v8a folder	/app/src/main/jniLibs folder
x86 folder	/app/src/main/jniLibs folder
armeabi-v7a folder	/app/src/main/jniLibs folder

Run the Application

Open project with Android Studio, connect your Android device, build and run.

Or use Gradle to build and run.
