Android 17 (Cinnamon Bun preview) introduces several breaking changes that require immediate attention. Forced portrait orientation is now overridden on large screens like tablets and foldables, requiring migration to WindowSizeClass-based adaptive layouts. Cleartext HTTP traffic is blocked by default, enforcing HTTPS for all production traffic with Network Security Config exceptions for dev environments.
