Jetpack Compose December '25 release (version 1.10) brings major performance improvements that match View-based UI performance, with pausable composition now enabled by default to reduce jank during heavy workloads. New features include the retain API for persisting state across configuration changes without serialization, Material 3 1.4 with SecureTextField and HorizontalCenteredHeroCarousel components, enhanced shared element animations with velocity support, and veiled transitions for AnimatedContent. Android Studio adds AI-powered tools for generating and transforming Compose UI from natural language and screenshots.
