APK Firmware and Resolution Specifications-AppGallery Policy Center

1. Automatic Adaptation of Resolution

The system automatically parses the APK to obtain the resolution specification. The specification depends on the apk, i.e., the resource files under the res file.

To be more specific, APK Firmware and Resolution Specifications.

For example, if an app’s res folder contains the following,

It means that the app supports WXGA, HVGA, WVGA, QHD, FHD, HD, and 1080P, i.e., consolidated list of resolutions supported by mdpi and hdpi.

Similarly, if an app supports HD and 1080P, the res folder must contain hdpi, xhdpi, normal, or large.

2. Automatic Adaptation of Firmware

Use app tool to obtain the value of minsdkVersion. The value is in AndroidManifest.xml.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 14, Android 4.0 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 16, Android 4.1 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 17, Android 4.2 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 18, Android 4.3 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 19, Android 4.4 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 21, Android 5.0 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 23, Android 6.0 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 24, Android 7.0 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 26, Android 8.0 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 27, Android 8.1 or later is supported.

If minSdkVersion is greater than or equal to 28, Android 9.0 or later is supported.

Android 1.5 or later is supported by default.

For example, if minSdkVersion is 9, and the apk’s res folder contains hdpi and large folders, then the app’s compatible firmware and resolution are:
