Hello!
I was wondering if there was any way to fix an android version of a game who does not work on some devices?
Does anyone have an advice about the way to test the compatibility?
I know that my game does not work on devices from the brand Wiko.
Thanks in advance!
Ps: I hope I posted in the correct section

Is there any debug outfit? Is the device certified to work with Google Play? There's a lot of things that can run Android, but we do require a minimal standard.

What do you mean by "debug outfit"? (sorry, I'm french so I don't really get what it means).
No, the device was not certified by Google Play it seems.
But the brand Wiko is certified by Google Play, I just checked the list. So technically, my game should be working on the Wiko devices, shouldn't it?
I was wondering if the only way to test the application on a device is to install it on it?
Thanks in advance

I mean, debug output. (I mistyped.) You can get that by running logcat on the android screen.
I believe the device certification is what should matter, as it confirms that the device supports minimal standards. For example, any certified device made in the past decade or so will support OpenGL ES 2, which Ren'Py requires.
Pretty much the only way to test an app on a specific device is to install it on that device.
