Android Question Can't publish apk due to warnings Unoptimized APK

[somed3v3loper]

Hello all ,

I am trying to publish an apk on Play Store but these warnings stopped me . I read in a thread in this forum that these are just warnings and one can proceed but in my case I can't and the button "START ROLLOUT .. " is disabled
My apk file size is 1.22 MB.

Unoptimized APK
Warning:

This APK results in unused code and resources being sent to users. Your app could be smaller if you used the Android App Bundle. By not optimizing your app for device configurations, your app is larger to download and install on users' devices than it needs to be. Larger apps see lower install success rates and take up storage on users' devices.

Resolution:

Use the Android App Bundle to automatically optimize for device configurations, or manage it yourself with multiple APKs.

This is just a warning which you should ignore. Your APK is very small anyway

The button is not disabled because of this warning.

You are right , I did not complete a lot of required information I thought google would let me test my app without all these stuff

hi somed3v3loper

Can you tell me how you solved it?
I also encountered the same problem but did not have any prompts only the #1 message and could not be submitted.

apk = 2.8 mb

@kuosda "Submitt" is not acitve until all the information asked is filled out

hi f0raster0
Do you mean to tell me if there is any missing information before submitting?

Hi kuosda ,
Just make sure you fill all required data
Check all the links on the left of page

hi somed3v3loper
So being able to upload an APK and not being able to post it is caused by the incomplete filling of the left setting page.
Isn't the APK itself wrong?
Can you tell me the last action I uploaded while ignoring the warning?

 

[f0raster0]

you can skip some warning,

First check the left side of your dashboard, you will see in green when you filled all the questions asked.

check the left side of your dashboard


other option to help, is if you can show us what you are doing

Because uploading google play is the supervisor using the company account to upload,
If the supervisor is unable to upload feedback to me the wrong message,
However, after the APK is uploaded, the warning page of #1 does not appear to be submitted,
So I don't know now that the APK itself has errors or the information on the submitted page is missing.

For me , it was just the missing required data
The apk file was fine

 

[kuosda]

hi somed3v3loper
So are you submitting information missing?

 

[Erel]

As written in post #2 the warning about the unoptimized APK is:

1. Incorrect.
2. Doesn't prevent you from submitting the APK.

It is a bit confusing but if you are unable to submit then something else is missing.

 

[kuosda]

hi Erel
I know you mentioned this.
APK is already uploaded but cannot be submitted
So I don't know now that my apk package information is missing or the submission information is missing because there is no message except the #1 warning.

 

[somed3v3loper]

Fill everything related to your app
It might be related to a missing screenshot , app description or anything else

 

[kuosda]

Thanks
When I upload the apk today, I can ignore the warning and submit it!

Yes, I had the same issue (due to incomplete info/screenshots).
Once completed those missed items, Able to publish (ignoring the warning). Thanks
