Android developers have until November 1, 2025, to update their apps to support Google Play’s new 16 KB memory page size requirement. This change, introduced with Android 15, aims to significantly improve device performance and efficiency.

• New apps and updates targeting Android 15 or newer must support 16 KB pages to be accepted on the Google Play Store.
• The shift from historical 4 KB pages offers measurable gains, including up to 30% faster app launches and 4.5% average battery improvements.
• The App Bundle Explorer in Google Play Console now indicates 16 KB page support, and developers are advised to test in a 16 KB environment.
