    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:largeHeap="true"
    android:supportsRtl="true"

"Do not solve this kind of issue with `android:largeHeap="true"`, that's not a solution". – users at 4325010 Jan 06 '18 at 18:24

There are two solution to get rid of this error

Compress your image and change the resolution as per your need.
Use glide to load image, glide make copy of that image as according to your image view's size

You can try both.

The image is just 250kb. That isn't that big – Sriram R Jan 06 '18 at 18:20

yes that's big , your image size should be 50 to 60 kb approx – Suraj Vaishnav Jan 06 '18 at 18:23
and also this size increase app size which is not best practice – Suraj Vaishnav Jan 06 '18 at 18:24
Yeah but this is the logo and I kinda need it here – Sriram R Jan 06 '18 at 18:26
then use glide to do your task – Suraj Vaishnav Jan 06 '18 at 18:27
