Description

I'm trying to run the Instant App multi module example in a Nexus 5x device running Android 8 through Android Studio but it gives me the following error:

```
03/12 17:22:22: Launching 'app detail' on LGE Nexus 5X.
INFO - Analyzing files...

INFO - Checking device...

FATAL - This older Android build is not compatible with instant apps
Details: You must install system updates, flash a newer system image, or use a device with a a more up-to-date set of system patches.

Error while Uploading and launching Instant App
```

When using devices running Android 9 and 10 everything works perfectly.

Isn't it suppose to run on every [Android version greater than 5.0 (API 21)](https://developer.android.com/topic/google-play-instant/overview)? Is there another way to run it?
