Error related to Android Auto addendum - while publishing APK in Google Play


I want to release my app on google play store. After uploading the apk file to console. I am getting following error : "you must accept the android auto addendum before uploading an android auto-enabled apk or android app bundle.you can do this from the advanced distribution page."

how to fix this?


Solution

  • It looks like you've uploaded an APK/Bundle with Android Auto support.

    If you don't intend to release anything specific for Android Auto, just check the manifest file and see if it contains anything releated to Android Auto (check for meta-data tags related to Android Auto). You can remove those and you'll be able to publish your app.

    If you want to release your app with Android Auto enabled, you can find the settings related to accepting the terms.

    It'll look like this once you select Android Auto:
