| Oct 15, 2022 at 22:46 | comment | added | HII | that answers my question, thanks, you can post an answer as well if you have some percentages | |
| Oct 15, 2022 at 22:42 | comment | added | Robert | No I did not say that the market share is 99% of arm64 devices, I said that today are, except may be from some special Android devices, all phones supporting arm64-v8a and for the last few years this is also true. But if you consider older devices sold may be 5 years ago an older than you may still find arm-v7a only devices. | |
| Oct 15, 2022 at 22:33 | comment | added | HII | @Robert pardon my ignorance, thanks for the info, so you're saying if I build an android app that supports only 64 bit processors it will run on the vast majority (your guess is >99%) of the devices? (Do know somewhere we can see usage statistics?) | |
| Oct 15, 2022 at 22:14 | comment | added | Robert | Tlherke is no arm64-v7a architecture, only arm-v7 (32 bit). And armeabi is an alias for arm-v7a. x86 is effectively dead and is only relevant for emulators (and may be Android on Chromebooks? Not sure how many x86 Chromebooks exist). For new Android phones and tablets my guess would be 99% arm64-v8a (some may use armv9a but that is effectively just an extension to arm-v8a). | |
