In Android, to access the currently logged-in user, you can achieve this by following these steps:

  1. Include the following permission statement in the tags:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
  1. Then, in your Activity or Fragment, you can use the AccountManager class to get the currently logged in user. First, obtain an instance of AccountManager:
AccountManager accountManager = AccountManager.get(this);
  1. Next, use the getAccountsByType method to retrieve all accounts on the device.
Account[] accounts = accountManager.getAccountsByType(null);
  1. If there are multiple accounts on the device, you can obtain detailed information for each account by iterating through the array. For example, you can retrieve the account type and name.
for (Account account : accounts) {
    String accountType = account.type;
    String accountName = account.name;
    // 处理账户信息
}

Note: There may be multiple accounts logged in on your Android device. Therefore, you need to determine the specific account information you want to access based on your needs.

  1. Finally, handle account information according to your needs. You can display the account information on the UI, or perform other actions.

It is important to note that obtaining account information requires the GET_ACCOUNTS permission. From Android 6.0 (API level 23) and above, you need to dynamically request this permission at runtime. You can use runtime permission management to handle permission requests.

I hope the above information is helpful to you!
