An Android library that automatically generates onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState implementations via the @AutoRestore annotation. It works with Activities, Fragments, and Views through a Gradle plugin and annotation processing.

Use cases

• eliminate boilerplate onSaveInstanceState code in Android apps
• automatically restore activity state after process death
• save and restore fragment fields with annotations
• persist view state across configuration changes
• generate instance state handling for Kotlin Android projects

When to choose

• you maintain an Android app with lots of manual instance state saving code
• you want annotation-based automatic state persistence in Activities, Fragments, or Views
• you use Kotlin or Java with kapt and want code generation

When to avoid

• you use Jetpack Compose or ViewModel/SavedStateHandle instead of classic instance state
• you need an actively maintained library - the project has had no releases since 2018
• your project does not use Android Gradle plugin integration
