I may have a short Appity App teaser (Android?) to show quickly today.

#4

Can you record this and post a link to the recording
I may join but there are others who’d like to see whatever goes on but wont be able to be there

#5

This starts now!

Yes, we will post it to You Tube later.

#6

Thanks

#7

Great! There is android app being assembled in the zoom video conference :slight_smile:

#8

For those who were not able to attend, here is the video.

#9

It’s good to see Android support progressing.

I also watched the video by Paul Lefebvre which stated Xojo were targeting Lollipop / API level 21 but I believe Google are pulling the ladder up to API level 28 or your app won’t be permitted in Google Play

#10

This won’t be a problem. We use the Android 9 SDK (API 28) to target Android 5 (API 21) and higher.

#11

Thanks for the clarification, Paul.

#12

Those of us who provide solutions on demand almost don’t use Google Play, instead they create packages (APKs) and send them directly to customers, and those sometimes use old tablets or phones, some as old as 4.1+ (Jelly Bean). So, having the ability to serve the legacy outside the official App Store is almost a must. 5.0+ is Ok.
