Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) Guide

About the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) package

The Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) Provider is a subsystem for the Adaptive Performance package, to extend Adaptive Performance to Samsung Android devices. It transmits device-specific information to the Adaptive Performance package, and enables you to receive data about the thermal state of a Samsung Android device.

Installing the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) package

Use the Unity Package Manager to install the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) package, which includes the Samsung (Android) subsystem for Adaptive Performance.

Unity automatically installs the Adaptive Performance package as a dependency of the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) package. You can use Adaptive Performance as soon as installation through the Package Manager completes.

Quick Setup Guide

  • Install Android Support for Unity. Unity needs Android Support to build to your Samsung device.
  • Switch Platform to Android in the Build Settings window.
  • Use the Unity Package Manager and install the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) package which includes the subsystem. The Unity Package Manager then automatically installs the Adaptive Performance package as a dependency for you as well.
  • When you build and deploy the app to your device, Adaptive Performance will be active by default.

Note: To enable Adaptive Performance log messages in development builds, change UnityEngine.AdaptivePerformance.StartupSettings.Logging to true. Adaptive Performance then starts printing status information to the console.

Using the Adaptive Performance Samsung (Android) subsystem

This subsystem is only a data provider for Adaptive Performance, and has no user-facing APIs. The Adaptive Performance package includes all functionality. For details, see the Adaptive Performance documentation.
