This isn't correct so I have a guess as to a part of what may be going on. Please try downloading the apk again and retesting. The original one was arm 32-bit whereas the new one is arm 64-bit. It looks like they may be phasing out support for arm 32-bit, which may also be the odd problem you're having on beta 16.

Note that, at the moment, I'm unable to directly test this as my phone (a Pixel 4a) officially reached its end of support at the end of Android 13. Looks like I'll have to spend some money to buy a newer model. :-(
