I'm trying to enable outlook web add-in for mobile by making below changes in manifest file but the installation fails and throws below error.
Error Message:

But the same manifest file works for the desktop version.The above manifest follows same structure as that of manifest in production which is a desktop version.
The requirement is to support the same plugin for mobile devices for both android and IOS.
This is the link which I followed to add mobileFormFactor element which is used to support Mobile Device.
------------------------------After Edit ------------------------------------
Here is the missing part which needs to be added before MobileFormFactor
<DesktopFormFactor>
<FunctionFile resid="functionFile" />
<ExtensionPoint xsi:type="MessageReadCommandSurface">
<!--Use the default tab of the ExtensionPoint or create your own with <CustomTab id="myTab"> -->
<OfficeTab id="TabDefault">
<!-- Up to 6 Groups added per Tab -->
<Group id="msgReadGroup">
<Label resid="groupLabel"/>
<!-- Launch the add-in : task pane button -->
<Control xsi:type="Button" id="msgReadOpenPaneButton">
<Label resid="paneReadButtonLabel"/>
<Supertip>
<Title resid="paneReadSuperTipTitle"/>
<Description resid="paneReadSuperTipDescription"/>
</Supertip>
<Icon>
<bt:Image size="16" resid="icon16"/>
<bt:Image size="32" resid="icon32"/>
<bt:Image size="80" resid="icon80"/>
</Icon>
<Action xsi:type="ShowTaskpane">
<SourceLocation resid="messageReadTaskPaneUrl"/>
</Action>
</Control>
<!--Go to http://aka.ms/ButtonCommands to learn how to add more Controls: ExecuteFunction and Menu -->
</Group>
</OfficeTab>
</ExtensionPoint>
<!--Go to http://aka.ms/ExtensionPointsCommands to learn how to add more Extension Points: MessageRead, AppointmentOrganizer, AppointmentAttendee-->
</DesktopFormFactor>
Adding DesktopFormFactor and it's corresponding resources to VersionOverrides of type VersionOverridesV1_1 helps in overcoming this issue.
