Authgear sample for Android

This repo demonstrates how to add authentication to an Android app using Authgear.

Project setup

Create Free Authgear Account

1. Goto https://portal.authgear.com and create a free account (or login to your existing account).

2. Then navigate to Applications and create a new client application of type Native App.

Import project to Android Studio

Clone this repo and import to Android Studio, Sync Gradle

Requirements

• Android Studio (a recent version bundling AGP 9.2+)
• JDK 17
• Android SDK Platform 37 (compileSdk 37; the app targets targetSdk 36 / Android 16)

This sample uses Jetpack Compose (Material 3), a MainViewModel with StateFlow, and the Authgear SDK's Kotlin coroutine (suspend) API.

Authgear SDK dependency

The SDK is consumed from Maven Central (no JitPack repository required):

implementation("com.authgear:android-sdk:3.0.0")

Configuration

The project needs to be configured with your Authgear client application's Endpoint and Client ID in order for the authentication flow to work.

To do this, open app/src/main/java/com/example/authgeardemo/Constants.kt, and replace "<AUTHGEAR_CLIENT_ID>", "<AUTHGEAR_ENDPOINT>" with with your own Authgear client application credentials.

To run this example app, add the following URI to your Authgear client application's Authorized Redirect URI:

• com.example.authgeardemo://host/path

What is Authgear?

Authgear is a highly adaptable identity-as-a-service (IDaaS) platform for web and mobile applications. Authgear makes user authentication easier and faster to implement by integrating it into various types of applications - from single-page web apps to mobile applications to API services.

Key Features

• Zero trust authentication architecture with OpenID Connect (OIDC) standard.
• Easy-to-use interfaces for user registration and login, including email, phone, username as login ID, and password, OTP, magic links, etc for authentication.
• Support a wide range of identity providers, such as Google, Apple, and Azure Active Directory (AD).
• Support biometric login on mobile, Passkeys, and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) such as SMS/email-based verification and authenticator apps with TOTP.
