Shelby Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 18, 2023 #1 This morning Google Play has emailed me to say my API level must be updated by August 31. Does this mean since I have increased my manifest Editor upper level to 33, I just have to update the Google Play dashboard, etc.? Thanks

N noeleon Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 19, 2023 #6 I received the same email so I checked my code to confirm and it is targeted to 33. I reinstalled it from Play Store and uploaded the apk to Virustotal and it says target sdk is indeed 33. Must be a mistake by Google so I clicked "Request more time" to extend the deadline to November 1 and wait for them to sort their sh*t out. Last edited: Aug 19, 2023 Upvote 0

N noeleon Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 19, 2023 #7 @mcqueccu Upon further checking I found out that the Alpha and Internal testing versions target sdk 31. My app is currently in Beta. I hope the email means I won't be able to update ONLY those channels. Upvote 0

Shelby Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 20, 2023 #9 I actually have more complications. I can't seem to update my website (Godaddy) to add my Data Safety announcement and my Privacy announcement for Google Play. I inadvertently had linux as a site type for over 20 years and yesterday I changed it to Windows for $93. Still I can't get filezilla to update my webpages just like the last 6 months at least. Now I'll go to Godaddy support chat and see if they have a solution to years old now problems of many users unable to update their websites; I googled the problem and there have been many instances of my same problem for a long time with no solutions. If you're interested, Hurricane Hilary has hit this morning here in San Diego and it is a very weak day of showers thus far (at 10 am); no frightening storm as portrayed by news media. Upvote 0

I just spoke to a friend in San Diego on our weekly old school friends Sunday Zoom get together and as we started at 17:00 BST it had just started with a light shower there. Let's hope that is all it will be.? Upvote 0
