Google has set new minimum memory-use standards for Android apps. Apps that fail them cannot be published on Google Play. Developers have until February 2027 to comply, and until April 2027 for the Zero-Tap Sign-In requirement. If your business has its own Android app or hires a developer for one, ask the developer whether it meets the new standards. Apps that are heavy on memory may need to be optimised or rebuilt before then. Most shop owners only use ready-made apps and need take no action.
