New Android announcement for the API 14 (level 34)

[Oscar_Medina]

Hello,
The message:
The Amazon Appstore QA Team has identified that your Basic Line-Dot Drawing app version 4.0 is targeting an old version of Android and it cannot be installed on devices with Android 15. To fix this issue, the ‘targetSdkVersion’ attribute needs to be set to 24 or above in the Application manifest file.

attribute needs to be set to 24 or above

I edited my last post.
Why the app has to target Android 7.0 is likely to remain Amazon's secret.

Is this what you need?

No, but this...

@Oscar_Medina

To fix this issue, the ‘targetSdkVersion’ attribute needs to be set to 24 or above in the Application manifest file.

And I don't see what your problem might be.

[Oscar_Medina]

Ok, then and thank you!

and wait until the main server targets sdk 34 or if you like to help testing the sdk 34 release see here

Technical Preview: Android SDK 34 Update

Best is to backup your projects yourself And later if you want to work on one of the projects, import it to App Inventor If you like to use the test server to publish a project in Google Play, don't forget to use the correct keystore, see also Taifun

@arjun

[arjun]

[Taifun]

Then just publish a new version targeting sdk 33

[arjun]

[arjun]

Im really sorry but I am having a hard time understanding the various announcements and terms that you are presenting to me, could you please explain to me how to solve the problem?

[Anke]

@arjun

could you please explain to me how to solve the problem?

And again and again: What problem? There is no problem!

Just ignore any SDK warnings from Google (until August 31, 2024) as long as your app currently targets SDK 33.

---

If you need to make an urgent update now, do it by building it with the current AI2 version (i.e. targetSdkVersion=33) and uploading it to the Play Store. Then you have until August 31, 2025 to update the app to SDK 34.
