Burst of app crashes immediately after publishing to Google Play

Question

Immediately after publishing a new version of an application on Google Play, I get a burst of new crashes from an unknown device called \"unknown Full Android on Emulator\".

Answer 1

Since soon after publishing a new version I see crashes almost only from this device, I'm guessing it's a Google Play new app publishing flow, where they monkey test your app.

I'm seeing crashes from Debug activities that can't be opened in the UI, but can be accessed via a direct intent, so I'm also guessing this monkey test goes over the manifest, launches random activities directly, and plays with them.
