Google Play shows Unoptimized APK for Cordova App

Question

I was trying to publish my first Cordova app on Google Playstore. When I upload my release apk, it shows below warning and I cannot rollout the release.

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.

Answer 1

Well, it's just a warning I think. You could ignore it and rollout the release. The problem is that you haven't completed and provided enough information for important contents like store listing, content rate, pricing & distribution, and app release. When all of them show "green check", you could rollout the app.

Answer 2

This is just a warning, and you can carry on uploading Cordova APKs. The Cordova team know about this, and you can follow their feature request to support Android App Bundle here
