    <p>In recent builds of an android application I wrote I see the appearance of a lot of file containing translations for several strings that I never added.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;resources&gt; &lt;string name="abc_action_bar_home_description"&gt;Navigate home&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_action_bar_up_description"&gt;Navigate up&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_action_menu_overflow_description"&gt;More options&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_action_mode_done"&gt;Finished&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_activity_chooser_view_see_all"&gt;See all&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_activitychooserview_choose_application"&gt;Choose an app&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_searchview_description_clear"&gt;Clear query&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_searchview_description_query"&gt;Search query&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_searchview_description_search"&gt;Search&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_searchview_description_submit"&gt;Submit query&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_searchview_description_voice"&gt;Voice search&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_shareactionprovider_share_with"&gt;Share with&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string name="abc_shareactionprovider_share_with_application"&gt;Share with %s&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/resources&gt; </code></pre> <p>Those strings seems to come from the <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v7/mediarouter/R.string.html" rel="nofollow"><code>android.support.v7.mediarouter.R.string</code></a> file and that is coherent with the fact that I am using the compatibility support library (But I am not using mediarouter)</p> <p>I compiled my application with gradle and using Android Studio and in both case (Unsurprisingly since they are both using the same scripts).</p> <p>How can I get rid of them? That is particularly important because my app is now listed in the Play Store as supporting 56 languages when it actually supports only 2.</p> <p>I see that it first happened when I first switched from API level 8+ to API level 7+, but now even if I choose an higher API level I still have them.</p>
