Android App Bundle is the Android application publishing file format. The App Bundle must include the application's compiled code and resources, which allows for the signing and generation of APK files to be deferred to the app store, reducing the initial download size of the app.[1] The file extension used for this format is ".aab".[2]
Google Play requires Android App Bundles for all new apps since August 2021 and for all updates to preexisting apps since November 2021.[3][4] Since May 2023, Android TV requires AABs.[5]
