Yes. The most common criterion for determining the main destination is duration of stay. Therefore, if you plan a trip with four days in Germany and fewer than four days in each of your other Schengen destination countries, Germany will be the proper country to evaluate your visa application.

The main destination is a somewhat fuzzy question.
- If you spend most of the time in one country, that is probably the main destination. Example: A weekend in France, then two weeks in Germany -> Germany is the main destination.
- If there is a specific event in one country which determines the timing of the whole trip, that is probably the main destination. Example: Two days is Austria with a family wedding or an expensive opera ticket, five more days in Germany to relax -> Austria is the main destination.
If you cannot tell, apply at the first country of your itinerary.
