XAPK (APK Expansion Files) is an ancillary file to the APK file format. Where Google Play requires the compressed APK file to be under 100MB[1].

According to the Android Developer documents an XAPK file can be used for:

  • high-fidelity graphics,
  • media files,
  • or other large assets.

An XAPK file is a ZIP archive like APK and may have a similar layout, as well as the additional assets, which may also be zipped and optionally encrypted, see OBB.
