개발이 늦어지고 있습니다. 구글 플레이 콘솔에서 연장 신청 하세요. 그러면 10월31일까지 연장할 수 있습니다.

Hello,
When will the next AppInventor update be available so that our apps can target Android 15?

Did you read the response before yours?

Can anybody please explain to me how I can update my app to be compatible with Android 15 or point me to a thread on here or a YouTube Video?
I am relatively new to the community. (Step by step, once the new MIT update is out.)

It seems you also didn't read this topic. Just wait a few days.

Increase the version number by 1, build the AAB (APK) and upload it to the developer console.

I did not ask when, I asked how.

Thank you very much, Anke:)

P.S. Just want to make sure, will my app automatically be updated when I update my MIT program, and I just have to do what you said?

I am asking because I saw somewhere else that you have to export the project to your computer before updating the MIT program and then upload it again to the MIT program after updating the program.

Update: Taifun clarified it for me. Actually quite easy:) Thank you both.

You did ask how to update your app to Android 15

Yes, I did ask how. I know it will be rolled out in a few days, but I still need to know how to update my app once the MIT program update is available.

Currently the target sdk is 34
After the release it will be 35
Just follow these steps then

Thank you Taifun. I appreciate it:)
I actually saw that ewpatton said you must simply rebuild the app and upload to Google Play, but I did not click that it meant, build the .aab. All the terms are still new to me.
Between you and Anke, I learned something today. I am also relieved because Google Play had me quite nervous.
