I want to develop an android app that supports dynamic delivery feature. Although this feature was announced last year, it's still on beta and I couldn't find any real app that uses this technology. Does anybody know any real android app on Play Store that has an on-demand module?
There are lots of news about app bundle, but it's limited to CPU architecture, the display density, and the languages.

Google Play's app serving model, called Dynamic Delivery, uses Android App Bundles to generate and serve optimized APKs for each user's device configuration, so users download only the code and resources they need to run your app.
android. dynamic-feature modules, which means you can use any classes defined in the base module and its libraries in the DFM, but you can't reference any code defined in the DFM from the base application at compile time.
An Android App Bundle is a publishing format that includes all your app's compiled code and resources, and defers APK generation and signing to Google Play.
Previously developers used to to build multiple APKs to target different API versions & device types.
But with Android App Bundle I just upload the single artifact with all of our application resources and the tooling takes care of what needs to be built and delivered to the app user base. I was able to reduce app size by nearly between 60% to 70%.
Nowadays many famous apps like Airbnb , LinkedIn, Twitter use dynamic app delivery for its users.
