Specify MemoryDependency UWP App

I have a UWP app generated from Unity. I want to limit the availability of my app based on Memory, since it does not run well on less then 1gb. I found this MemoryDependency, but I am not able to apply it in the code of the package.appxmanifest, can somebody tell how this is done?

Solution

You were on the right Track. Below are the steps.

To validate your StoreManifest.xml, create a new xml document in Microsoft Visual Studio and add the following declaration:

http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/2015/StoreManifest namespace

Below is the StoreManifest.xml for Devices with Min 1 GB

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<StoreManifest xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/2015/StoreManifest">
  <Dependencies>
    <MemoryDependency MinForeground="300MB" />
  </Dependencies>
</StoreManifest>

Below is the Table for Declaring MemoryDependency

For mobile devices, the value indicates the requirements for available memory. The equivalent requirements for installed memory on mobile devices are as follows:

300MB = device must have at least 1 GB of installed memory
750MB = device must have at least 2 GB of installed memory
1000MB = device must have at least 3 GB of installed memory
2000MB = device must have at least 4 GB of installed memory

For example, if you specify that your UWP app requires 300 MB to run properly, it will only be able to be installed on mobile devices with >1 GB of RAM or on desktop devices with >300 MB of RAM.
