it seems to be a fairly widespread problem.

Tried on both Android 11 and Android 13, both 32 and 64bit. I didn't expect the 11 to work, but 13 is barely 2 years old and is still used in most mobile games. Seeing how widespread the problem is across Discord and X, I'm assuming either absolute newest Android version is required, or the file itself is corrupted.
