How to Check Your Internet Connection in Android Without NetworkInfo

In the rapidly evolving world of Android development, it's essential to keep up with updates and changes in API functionalities. One significant change recently has been the deprecation of NetworkInfo, which has called into question how we can check for internet connectivity in our applications. If you've found yourself wondering how to check if your app has internet access without using NetworkInfo, you're in the right place! This guide will walk you through a simple method using the ConnectivityManager and its newer capabilities.

Understanding the Problem

When trying to determine whether a device has an active internet connection, many developers relied on the NetworkInfo class. Unfortunately, starting from API level 29 (Android 10), using NetworkInfo is no longer recommended, leading developers to seek alternative approaches. The challenge arises when you want to check for an internet connection when a button is clicked in your app.

Key Points

NetworkInfo is deprecated, so finding a new way to check internet connectivity is crucial.

The ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallbacks method can be confusing and may not work as expected in some scenarios.

We need a straightforward way to check if our app is online.

Solution: Using ConnectivityManager Properly

To check if your Android device is online, follow these steps. We will utilize the ConnectivityManager class, and establish a reliable method to check internet connectivity based on the API level.

Step 1: Add Required Permission

First, you need to declare the permission to access the network state in your AndroidManifest.xml file. This step is critical for your app to query network capabilities.

By following the outlined steps, you can easily integrate this functionality into your app, giving your users a better experience when it comes to network-related actions. Happy coding!
