Vuforia 7.2.20 Android Submission

By Rideout on Fri, 07/06/2018 - 22:14

I have found that upon building a unity project for Android and attempting to submit the app to the Play Console, an error gets thrown to the tune of:

"The ARCore dependency minimum version code com.google.ar.core.min_apk_version is missing from the AndroidManifest.xml file although the meta-data tag com.google.ar.core has been specified."

It seems that upon integrating ARCore into my project (https://library.vuforia.com/content/vuforia-library/en/articles/Solution/arcore-with-vuforia.html), this issue is mitigated. However, it would seem that ARCore still does not support refocus/autofocus yet, and as a result, image tracking becomes useless when trying to track smaller images on ARCore enabled devices.

Is there another solution? I found a post on the Unity forums (https://forum.unity.com/threads/vuforia-7-2-20-and-android-submission-arcore-com-google-ar-core-min_apk_version-isnt-in-androidma.538843/) where someone mentioned bringing the project into Android Studio and manually editing the manifest file and building from there, but I would prefer to avoid having to do that if I can as building straight from Unity is so straightforward and much more painless.

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

In my case, I did not integrate ARcore at all, and only enabled vufori support in the player setting. However, I have the same error as you did and could not upload the APK. Can you think of any cause?

Thanks in advance!
