Problem Statement
The Android Session Replay SDK currently has a fixed maximum session duration of 60 minutes with no way to configure a lower limit. The JavaScript SDK already supports a maxReplayDuration option, but no equivalent exists for Android.
Use cases where a configurable max duration would be helpful:
Reducing storage/resource usage by capping replays at a shorter duration (e.g. 15 or 30 minutes)
Limiting post-error recording to a shorter window when using onErrorSampleRate
Aligning Android replay behavior with the JavaScript SDK for consistency
Solution Brainstorm
Add a maxReplayDuration option to SessionReplayOptions, similar to what is already available in the JavaScript SDK:
SentryAndroid.init(context) { options ->
options.sessionReplay.maxReplayDuration = 30 * 60 * 1000L // 30 minutes in ms
}
This would mirror the existing JavaScript SDK option:
replayIntegration({
maxReplayDuration: 30 * 60 * 1000, // 30 minutes in ms
})
