implementation 'com.arthenica:mobile-ffmpeg-min-gpl:4.4.LTS'

for example this library uses GPL-3.0, LGPL-3.0 licenses, but my app is social app, and i want to keep the source code private, if use gpl licensed any library dynamically in my app, should i make the source of app public and use also gpl?

  • This is a legal question, not a programming question so it does not belong here. – Gabe Sechan Aug 18 '23 at 17:27
  • However- if you use a GPL licensed library, yes you must release source code to your app under the GPL, which means your entire app including any other libraries you use must be GPL compatible. If it's LGPL you only need to release the code of the library itself if you made any changes. But consult with an IP lawyer for further clarity, nobody here is likely to be one. – Gabe Sechan Aug 18 '23 at 17:29
