[FIXED] Max size of an Android Application

Issue

What is the maximum size for an Android Application that can be uploaded for Google Play? Is there some official resource or documentation for this? For example I see some games that are in GBs so is there an upward limit?

Solution

Android Market raises maximum app size to 4GB, APK files still limited to 50MB
