App is crashing on some devices. Android studio shows out of memory exception error

Question

I am creating a music player app. I have three activities that have recycler views in it. I am loading music from server using exoplayer. I am loading like 10-20 images of 20kb size into recycler views using glide. My app is crashing in some phones with low memory. Android profiler shows that my app is consuming too much memory (screenshot below) App is running very smoothly in high-end phones. Can someone please tell me how to solve this memory issue so that app will run smoothly in all phones.

I have already added heaplarge=true in manifest

Answer 1

add this in your build.gradle in android section

dexOptions {
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g" //specify the heap size for the dex process
    }

and add this in default config section

multiDexEnabled true

finally add dependency:

compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.2'
