Question

i want testing share data between two apps that have same UID. how change UID of apps in android studio and set a same UID for two diffrent apps?

Answer 1

You need to use sharedUserId which will share data between two different apps.

In manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          package="string"
          android:sharedUserId="your_uid_in_string" // change here..
          android:sharedUserLabel="string resource" 
          android:versionCode="integer"
