  • do you really need a large video embedded in your app? Can you stream it or download it on demand? Or can you resize it for embedding? – Jason Apr 10 '23 at 14:50
  • Yes, i do some compression and for now i have 158mb, it's the the max that i can tolerate for video quality. – AMine03 Apr 11 '23 at 15:26

You need to use aapt2 to package large assets and then use Play Asset Delivery to deliver them. You can do it either manually as shown here:

Or you can use MSBuild to do it automatically as shown here:
