there's just this vague recommendation to "turn it off in settings." no link, no toggle, nothing.
had to hunt for the relevant setting in the app(even their settings menu is down under in the list when you tap on your avatar.

a screenshot of Google play store which has a popup that can only be disabled by pressing OK button at the bottom.
the popup contains the following text:
Google is optimising app installs with your help
Google Play makes apps faster to install, open and run based on what people are using most.
The first time that you open an app after installing, Google notes which parts of the app you use. When enough people do this, your apps will install faster.
App install optimisation is automatically turned on, but you can turn it off in settings. Learn more
Yes, it's why I said most popular configurations as well as architecture, not just CPU architecture. So that's specific CPU/SoC components (GPU etc). Compiling for the most popular configurations (thinking Google Pixel, Samsung Sxx, whatever Motorola's flagship is. Probably also the mid-range units that sell well too) you would cover a large %age with maybe 10-15 configurations, which isn't THAT hard to do if you're google.
This is the kind of approach that Apple takes by building multiple versions of the application for different devices. It's a perfectly serviceable solution that also works.
I don't have a great answer for why they don't do it this way.
