Hi there,

In my xamarin android app, which I am moving to Maui, which relies on some foldable device info such as if the device is foldable or not, and if it is, what is the hinge width (such as surface duo).

In Xamarin, I used jetPack apis, but it does not work in Maui. What are the alternative to it. I spent few hours, but could not make it work.

I create a .net android demo, And I install following nugget packages.

<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.AndroidX.AppCompat" Version="1.7.0.1" />
<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.AndroidX.ConstraintLayout" Version="2.1.4.14" />
<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.AndroidX.Window.WindowJava" Version="1.3.0.1" />
<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.DuoSdk" Version="0.0.3.4" />
<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Google.Android.Material" Version="1.11.0.1" />
</ItemGroup>

I can get the get device information like this surface duo document.

To get the device information, you need to make the application to cross the two screens manually when you run .net android application.
