Releasing a multi-ABI Android app to Google Play with Qt 6.2

Re: Create multi-arch AAB (QtCreator 5 & Qt 6.2)

I wonder if there is any way to build a bundle for Google Play with multiple ABIs? Each ABI is a separate kit in Qt 6.2.

I am thinking I can upload the v7a build, then upload the v8a build as a separate bundle using a higher version code. When a user installs the app, Google Play should install the newest version that is compatible with the users device.

I wonder if anyone has had any success with this, or if copying the lib folders between the builds before creating the signed bundle is a better approach?

Update: Google has approved the app with two bundles in the release, with the v8a bundle using a higher version code. So that seems to work. Only about 6% of installs so far are v7a, but still worth doing.

Further update. Google no longer permits you to upload a bundle without arm64-v8a, so supporting different ABIs with separate release versions is no longer possible. I wonder if Qt has a solution for multi-abi android apps?
