Ease of Integration
Ease of Integration Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics());
Extensible

Fluent Pattern Crashlytics crashlytics = new Crashlytics.Builder() .delay(1) .listener(createCrashlyticsListener()) .pinningInfo(createPinningInfoProvider())

Fluent Pattern Fabric.with(new Fabric.Builder(this) .kits(new Crashlytics()) .debuggable(true) .logger(new DefaultLogger(Log.VERBOSE)) .looper(getCustomLooper())

Extensible Classes class MyApiClient extends TwitterApiClient { interface MyService {

Gracefully Degrade
Gracefully Degrade if (TextUtils.isEmpty(apiKey) if (debuggable){ throw new IllegalArgumentException( “apiKey

Minimizing Permissions
Minimizing Permissions <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
Minimizing Permissions Crashlytics.setUserEmail(“

Permissions: Runtime Detection protected boolean canCheckNetworkState() { String permission =
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE; int result = context.checkCallingOrSelfPermission(permission); return (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED); }
Multiple Application Types
Multiple Application Types package com.example; import android.app.Service; public class MyService
extends Service { }
UI from Application Context WeakReference<Activity> currentActivity = new WeakReference<Activity>(); @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH)
