SharedUserId is used to share the data,processes etc between two or more applications. It is defined in AndroidManifest. xml like, <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:sharedUserId="android. uid.
The name may contain uppercase or lowercase letters ('A' through 'Z'), numbers, and underscores ('_'). However, individual package name parts may only start with letters.
When updates are available, the app updates automatically. To turn off automatic updates, turn off Enable auto update. Tips: When some apps get updated, they require new permissions.
The manifest file describes essential information about your app to the Android build tools, the Android operating system, and Google Play.
If sharedUserId is added or removed from the AndroidManifest, users will not be able to update the application because the OS userid the Android OS is assigning to the application has changed.
Unfortunately for the users, at this point they can only move forward by doing an uninstall and re-install. There are no ways for you to fix this so that they can do an update.
I am really, really sorry this happened to you and your users. I have asked Google Play to add a warning to the Dev Console that alerts developers about this.
Take some cold comfort in the fact that you are not the only one who has had this issue. I've been there, and it sucks.
