Android Question Google's target API level requirements

[luke2012]

"We've detected that 1 of your apps is targeting an older version of Android. To provide users with a safe and secure experience, Google Play requires all apps to meet the target API level requirements before August 31, 2023."

Hi everyone, have you also received this email from Google Play Console?
So you have to set the API target on the latest Android version? Is this enough and then republish?

In my manifest editor I have:

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="30"/>

So just upgrade from android:targetSdkVersion="30" to android:targetSdkVersion="33" ?

Yes. That's all I did for four of my Apps a few days ago and they accepted it within a few hours.

Better check this thread to see if your app uses some API that is limited or changed between SDK versions

android.jar / targetSdkVersion / minSdkVersion

There are several versioned components that affect the compilation process and the runtime behavior of our apps. The purpose of this tutorial is to explain the differences between them and help you choose which version to use. Each Android version is mapped to an api level. You can see this...
