I want to make an 'AR' app compatible with all versions of Android and will practically work in any Android phone so my question is can I use it develop an 'AR' app

So there is a nice TangoInitializationHelper Class provided in the examples. If you want to create an "optional Tango" app you would need to build some logic around where the samples call this class and if it returns without Tango.

Another gotcha is in most of the examples manifest files they have it required so this will need be set to false

Other then that, you should be good to run the rest of demos without an Tango device
