64-bit requirement not met

Android / Gradle · last reviewed 2026-11-10

The error looks like this

This release is not compliant with the Google Play 64-bit requirement

Why it happens

Native libraries are only included for 32-bit ABIs.

How to fix it

  1. Include arm64-v8a (and x86_64) — check reactNativeArchitectures in gradle.properties.
  2. Update any SDK that ships only armeabi-v7a.

Catch it before you build

Most release errors come from project settings you can check in seconds — signing, SDK levels, privacy manifests, permissions, push and login setup.
