Android Question {Solved} Android OS version

[Alex_197]

Hi to all.

Is it possible to check what is Android OS version on the device where the app is running?

I tried to check Phone library but all I found is SDK version that has nothing to do with OS version. The same app with targetSDK=29 can be installed on Android 4,7,9, 10 but I need to know what current OS version.

Thanks
