Google Play is generating and optimizing APKs from your Android App Bundle. This may take a few minutes, depending on the size of your app bundle.

I m also facing same issue..

I have upgraded RN 0.55.4 => 0.59.9

I have also set

def enableSeparateBuildPerCPUArchitecture = true

def enableProguardInReleaseBuilds = true

splits {
       abi {
           reset()
           enable enableSeparateBuildPerCPUArchitecture
           universalApk false  // If true, also generate a universal APK
           include "armeabi-v7a", "x86", "arm64-v8a", "x86_64"
       }
   }

buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled enableProguardInReleaseBuilds
            shrinkResources true
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile("proguard-android.txt"), "proguard-rules.pro"
            signingConfig signingConfigs.release
        }
    }

Here are some snips of my configurations of my project. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello there 👋 this issue doesn't have a repro (which means, a react-native init-ed project with the minimal changes that leads to creating the same issue you are reporting). Unfortunately, I have no way of helping you in a meaningful way – there is no easy way for me to recreate the situation and check that the issue reported is still there when changing the code.

Can anyone look a bit deeper in what causes this error? Maybe in the google play store development portal there may be a doc explaining it?

Because of this, we are going to close this issue - but if a repro is shared, we are happy to reopen it 🤗

You should just build and upload aab (Android App Bundle) file instead of apk .

cd android
./gradlew bundleRelease
cd ..

aab file will be placed in"/android/app/build/outputs/bundle/release/"
