Maximum size of APK that can Upload to Android Market

[revanth]

Hi ALL,

Could any one please tell me whether there is a size of limit to
upload an apk to the android market. i.e, could we upload an apk size
of 2GB or more than that.

You are in for a disappointment, from the "Android Market Client
Update" blog post at:

"We are also increasing the maximum size for .apk files on Market to
50MB"

It is currently 25MB

Even if you could, would you really want to? How many people are going to
sit through a 2GB download, if they even had the space for it?

If you need that much space, you should consider downloading it yourself to
the SD card. This is the accepted way to download big sets of data. the TTS
engine does this, if I recall correctly.

We are also increasing the maximum size for .apk files on Market to 50MB, to
better support richer games. check this line from the above link. &

One more thing i observed is they are preloading some data & one other way i
guess after that we can dowload data from server if you have too many
resources, that what for getting more resources, what i feel

Normall android market allow 50 MB apks from the above link.
