I will throw a comment in here as well, in case there is a easy fix...I have an ASUS transformer (android) and I get the same message. But it works on my android phone.

We've been fighting with this issue without any progress. I've emailed Google support (no reply) numerous times. I've googled the error message and see many other apps suffering from the same thing.

If anyone has recommendation to help repair this google android issue, i'd be very appreciative!

I wonder if we should start compiling a list of Android products we own that do work and don't seem to work to find a pattern. Or is it just 4.4 that is causing issues?

Working: Nvidia Shield Android version: 4.3

I don't have a non-working device.

Thanks guys! I thought I would try the only other android device I own, my OUYA (Android ver: 4.1.2). Turns out the ARC app works on there too!:D

I've tried everything to get it to work, No luck. So, I bought a windows tablet from E-bay.

One thing I did notice. Google play is seeing my tablet as an I pad and not android. I've deleted it and resynced it but it again see's it as an I Pad. I even tried going to apple sight and get rejected there as an unsupported device-- Of course. I did buy this as a remanufactured item. Maybe that's why ? Anyway the windows tablets work great.

Oh yeah, I have downloaded other apps from google play with the android tablet with no problems though.

No matter what, you still need a full blown PC, even if you just want to use the mobile app. Mobile apps are created in ARC (which runs under windows) then uploaded to the cloud... then downloaded to your mobile.... Without ARC you can't create mobile apps to use on your android or IOS device...
