Android .obb support (for apps > 50 MB)
Android supports the uploading of two .obb files (two archives). The archives are extractable directly by AIR but low powered devices crash (my experience here http://www.noriste.com/bticino-wiring-devices-a-starling-based-customisable-catalogue/#the-infamous-android-obb-file)
so an ANE could be very useful so the user see directly in the google play that the app is (for example) 200MB heavy, he downloads it and no waiting is required when it opens the app, far and far better than a long download wait on the app opening.
At the time I'm writing two others extensions exist that do the same but one is free but not so documented, one is not free but the developer won't grant support in case of future releases of Android
We have now released this ANE and it’s available through our site:

Let us know if you have any questions.
