any idea why my proguard is failing here? https://pastebin.com/itxRfUKx here’s my .pro file https://pastebin.com/56EDACgH

@oday you need to keep service and activity

hm

@oday add this -keep public class * extends android.app.Activity -keep public class * extends android.app.Application -keep public class * extends android.app.Service -keep public class * extends android.content.BroadcastReceiver -keep public class * extends android.content.ContentProvider -keep public class * extends android.app.backup.BackupAgent -keep public class * extends android.preference.Preference -keep public class * extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment -keep public class * extends android.support.v4.app.DialogFragment

yea but that doesn't explain why Proguard is removing this specific activity and not any other activity

in Android we cannot obfuscate an activity. You need to explicit register it in manifest

so you're saying that the reason why SettingsActivity was removed is because it wasn't mentioned in the manifest?

because it is mentioned

Is that make sense to you?

no because the activity is already mentioned in the manifest

So, other activities are works?

of course
