Over the last couple months, we at StadiaDosage have been doing our own Stadia apk findings for the Stadia Android app to discover potential upcoming features in the app.
In an attempt to be responsible human beings, we’d like to note that everything on this list should be taken with a grain of salt as it is subject to a lot of speculation/interpretation and may reflect behind the scenes features or features that never end up getting released. In addition, this list certainly does not represent everything Google is working on for the app. We don’t have access to Google’s private repositories where most development is surely taking place.
Because of the use of flutter/dart these apk breakdowns are a little more complicated than most (involving lots of shell commands and string processing). So, you should consider these particularly imprecise.

With all those caveats said, here we go!
Stadia apk 4.9 (March 24, 2022)
Quite a bit new here again in this Stadia apk finding.
The v2 touchpad .svg assets were once again updated. It looks like the new touch-controls could be coming soon.
In addition, we see even more new strings that appear to support the idea of motion controls, customizability in the touch Gamepad and more Gamepad tweaks:
- getTouchLayoutConfig
- TouchGamepadLayoutConfig_StickAreaConfig_
SprintConfig - enterpriseTouchVelocityToRightAxesConfig
- set:deviceMotionConfig
- sendDeviceMotionConfig
- get:triggerMovabilityThreshold
- set:triggerMovabilityThreshold
- ensureReadyToConfigure
- get:gamepadStateStream
- get:wantsGamepadInputStream
- isStickDirectionBetweenAngles
- AngleMath|angleBetween
It also looks like some app preferences tweaks may be coming soon. We see the following new layout files:
- res/drawable/preference_list_divider_material.xml
- res/layout/preference_widget_switch_compat.xml
- res/layout/preference_material.xml
- res/layout/preference_dropdown.xml
- res/layout/preference_widget_checkbox.xml
- res/layout/preference_widget_seekbar.xml
- res/layout/preference_widget_switch.xml
- res/layout/preference_dropdown_material.xml
- res/layout/preference_category_material.xml
- res/layout/preference_dialog_edittext.xml
- res/layout/preference.xml
- res/layout/preference_widget_seekbar_material.xml
- res/layout/preference_category.xml
In addition, there are once again a lot of changes to the in-app bundled Chrome – including the addition of clearcut analytics. It’s pretty obvious Google wants as much information about how people are using the app as possible.
Finally, we see some interesting-ish new strings “DELETE_SAVE_GAME”, “IMMERSIVE_STREAM_XR”, “Subscribe to Stadia Pro for 50+ games, exclusive discounts, and special features”, “Claim it at no extra cost with Stadia Pro”, “New Pro games every month to claim at no extra cost”
