Hi, could you update the Android xml descriptor to support xxhdpi and xxxhdpi in the compatible-screens android:screenDensity please. as documented here : Supporting Multiple Screens | Android Developers

exemple :

<compatible-screens>

  <!-- all small size screens  2"-3" -->

  <!--<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />-->

  <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="xxhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="xxxhdpi" />

  <!-- all normal size screens 3"-5" -->

  <!--<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />-->

  <screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="xxhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="xxxhdpi" />

  <!-- all large size screens 4"-7" -->

  <!--<screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />-->

  <screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="xxhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="large" android:screenDensity="xxxhdpi" />

  <!-- all xlarge size screens 7"+ -->

  <!--<screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />-->

  <screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="xxhdpi" />

  <screen android:screenSize="xlarge" android:screenDensity="xxxhdpi" />

</compatible-screens>

    Correct answer cpwfx

    You can add support by configuring 480 instead of xxhdpi like this:

    <screen android:screenSize="small/large/xlarge...." android:screenDensity="480" />

    I would assume that xxxhdpi woks the same by configuring with 640 instead.
