Today, Google announced that moving forward, it will only support 64-bit versions of Android Studio. The 32-bit version will be deprecated at the end of the year, and will be discontinued in 2020.

Google is dropping update and overall product support for Android Studio on 32-bit systems starting later this year and into 2020.

More than that, it appears that some devices launching with Android 14 will be forced to support 64-bit-only apps, finally spelling the end for 32-bit-only applications.

Android expert Mishaal Rahman points out that Android 13 on Pixel 7 phones doesn't allow 32-bit apps to run, but internally the operating system is still using some 32-bit libraries.
