update on why my answer is wrong!

| Mar 25 at 3:18 | comment | added | Tom Rutchik | My "About phone" settings says the device name is "Pixel 8". Maybe, the App Store only keeps track of the last device that the app was installed on. I did recently update an emulator from Android Studio. So maybe that explains it! I won't think that an emulator update would access the Play Store, but maybe it does! | |
| Mar 25 at 3:08 | comment | added | Tom Rutchik | It's an Google Pixel 8. I'm not sure what processor it has, I assumed from the information I see that it is an x86_64 since I got that information using my phone and not an emulator. I will say the I don't truly understand why the screen I mentioned says "Installed on all devices". I certainly could be wrong but that's what I see when I expand "app details" using my pixel. It could be that the App Store details are miss leading. My assumption was that if I found app details about native code that an apps was using, I could infer the type of processor architecture. | |

That aside, I believe what is displayed on Play Store is actually the device name, which on real Android devices, won't include CPU architecture. | |
