Hmm, Java 8 is actually supported in Android Studio. That support however will not make device Dalvik/ART VMs magically support Java 8 bytecode :)

Retrolambda is rather useful to get a subset of J8 features.

I never advise hacks for production code. Either it is first class support or it doesn't get used.

Adding extra layers to debug only increases production costs.
