Pushing Multi APK or Split APK Files

Google introduced the split APK method to reduce the size of the downloadable apps from Play Store. The Multi APK, or Split APK, as they are called, consists of more than one APK file for the same app. FieldX does not use the Play Store to push apps; it has an inbuilt plugin to download and install the Android apps. 

To Push your Split APK

1. Generate the APK files from the Android Studio
   
2. Copy all the APK files in a folder and create a ZIP file.
   
3. The ZIP file can be pushed through the Push Apps. [https://support.fieldx.io/portal/en/kb/articles/install-apps-through-fieldx]

1. Download the XAPK or APKM from relevant sources
   
2. Rename the extension ".xapk" or ".apkm" to ".zip".
