librtmpdroid.so needs 16 KB page alignment for Google Play compliance

Environment that reproduces the issue

Hi team,

Google Play now requires all apps to support 16 KB memory page sizes—enforcement begins November 1, 2025.

Currently, your library bundles a librtmpdroid.so native binary that is aligned with 4 KB pages, triggering Play Console warnings and non-compliance risks.

Could you please rebuild the native binaries using NDK r25 or newer to support 16 KB page alignment?

Thanks and appreciated!

Is it reproducible in the example application?

Yes

RTMP Server

Not applicable – this issue is about native binary alignment, not streaming behavior.

Reproduction steps

• Build a release APK with the library installed.

• Upload the APK to Google Play Console (internal track).

• Go to "Pre-launch report" or "Policy issues".

• See warning: "Your app must support 16 KB memory page sizes..."

Expected result

.so binaries in the APK (especially librtmpdroid.so) should be aligned to 16 KB memory pages to comply with new Android requirements.

Actual result

The library bundles .so binaries compiled with 4 KB page alignment, violating Play's upcoming policy.

This is critical for me and I wanna know that whether they have a plan to update React Native version and support 16KB in the near future.

I forked and hacked, looks like it's working, https://github.com/ChuckO/api.video-reactnative-live-stream if that helps anyone until they can do a new build.
