Confused about version compatibility.

Sun Oct 09, 2016 2:12 am

I can't download my app from Google Play on a Verizon Ellipse 8 running Android version 4.4.2.
I have the Min. SDK version set at Android 4.1x and the Target SDK version set at Android 4.1x
I have read some of the post that recommend resetting the permissions to default or deselecting the camera. I use the camera in my app.
Wouldn't the current 4.1x settings include the 4.4.2 version?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello -

Right now your app supports and will run on Android 4.1.x only.

If you want to maintain backward compatibility with an earlier version of Android, change Minimum Android version to the oldest version of Android that you want your app to support and to the highest as for a Target version in your case set Min. SDK version = Android 4.1.x and Target SDK version = Android 5.0.x.
