Getting started

Add LeakCanary to build.gradle:

dependencies {
  // debugImplementation because LeakCanary should only run in debug builds.
  debugImplementation 'com.squareup.leakcanary:leakcanary-android:2.0-beta-3'
}

That's it, there is no code change needed! LeakCanary will automatically show a notification when a memory leak is detected in debug builds.
