Make apk compatible with more devices
so I built my apk in unity and tried it in my smartphone and it works perfectly , but when I upload in Google play to try it I can not download in my phone Because it is not compatible According to Google play . When I enter in the developer section I can see my apk That is only Compatible with acerca 1000 only and my smartphone is not in the list ... I do not know why this is happening .
Someone have the answer? is the screen resolution or something?
I'm doing it alone and is the first time I upload my apk to google play.
The devices that your application is compatible with can be set using the android.mainfest file that is found in your assets->plugins directory of your project.
The first part of the manifest should look something like this if you want it to be compatible with as many devices as possible.
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.unity3d.player" android:installLocation="preferExternal" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0">
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" android:anyDensity="true" />
<compatible-screens>
<!-- all small size screens -->
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
<!-- all small size screens -->
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
<!-- all small size screens -->
<screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
<!-- all normal size screens -->
<screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
</compatible-screens>
Then when you upload to google play your compatible devices section should read in the thousands.
I have added these lines in manifest file. it has decreases number of supported device rather than increasing total number of supported devices
Just in case it helps someone:
I had the same problem, my app was compatible with around 2000 devices. I solved it by including more api levels in the player settings. Google forces you to include 29, but that doesn't mean you can´t include more. After following a tutorial on how to add 29 I just selected 4.4 as Minimum API Level and "Automatic Highest installed" as target API Level.
The tutorial I'm reffering to is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3AHZVEDAQY
Cheers!
thanks finally i solve the problem, it was a problem with the image compresion I was using.
Thank you. $$anonymous$$y app suddenly dropped something like 8000 devices, and this told me why. Image compression. Big stress when I saw all these devices suddenly go.
What setting did you end up using please? I'm getting 536 devices not supported with either 'ETC (default)' or 'Don't override'.
I'm wondering if its just the Android version that is making 5% of devices incompatible?
I checked. It is just 536 old models with old versions of Android.
which type of image compression do you use and where you use it on the built settings or all of that sprite individually. i am new in unity development. i made a game and upload it into play store but it didn't compatible with many device. please help me. and also the above code into the manifest file work or not??? i am waiting for your replay...
