I am getting the error "Split or bad apk!" on attempting to install the apk that I
created with "export to android" in the file section. This was a very small program
with nothing fancy that I created as a test app but I can't find why I am getting this
error or any way to solve it.

I tried to install it on a different phone and got a different error
"Parse error - There was a problem parsing the package."

The first phone (with the Split or bad apk! error) is a galaxy s8 running Android 9
and the second phone (with the Parse error) is a Motorola running Android 5.1.1

It seems to me that AppGameKit Studio is building a bad apk file and giving me the errors
on the phones, I am a Steam user and everything is up to date.

If anyone has any ideas as to what's going on with this please let me know.
Thank you.

How big is your APK? Android Google Playstore supports 100 MB, and 2 files a 2 GByte.
It can be a bit tricky, if you have a movie, much audio or a lot of textures. But can't tell, if the size of your APK is the problem in this case.
Maybe you could try with checking [ ] Expansion file while exporting. But it is only my first guess. Don't know, if that could solve your error.

Try updating Studio to the latest and create the APK again and see if it works

I found an issue where the APK was a small size in the latest version of Studio if you exported to Android more than once in the same session that Studio is open. To get a proper export I have to close Studio each time after the first export.

I reported it here: https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/226118#msg2655409
