Optimize App Downloads with Android App Bundle and Dynamic Delivery

" summary

Claims that every app should publish with Android App Bundle, demonstrates using bundletool and the Play Console to generate device‑specific APK sets, and shows the Play Core Library + split install manager to request and monitor on‑demand dynamic feature downloads. Cites apps growing about fivefold since 2012 and an internal testing track capped at 100 users. Builds include base and dynamic feature modules, signed by Play app signing, and the workflow produces noticeably smaller per‑device downloads and working on‑demand installs.
