Is that safe to keep only armeabi-v7a for an android apk

I have an android APK that use a native library (snappydb). The native libraries takes a lot of spaces, so I want to keep only the snappydb for armeabi-v7a architectures?

I know it's not 100% safe to remove snappydb for other architectures, so my question is: how unsafe it is? (how many devices/users will I lost?)

Just for reference, the minimal sdk version that my app support is 16 (JELLY_BEAN).

Solution

  • You will probably not gain too much from arm-v7a optimization, and currently there is no compelling reason to include 64-bit build. But MIPS and X86 owners will thank you if you keep their devices covered.
