OK, done.

Not sure about this now!?
There is only a popup menu "Minimum Android Version" and "16 - API 36" isn't even listed here.
Since I had "8.0 - Oreo" set here since the very first version of the app, I am sure this is IN FACT
the allowed/supported minimum system requirement.
Right? Or not?

Hello
You must have the last releases (RC) for that. API 36 was not there before

yes, sorry, my fault, but this was my question:
-------------------------------------------
There is only a popup menu "Minimum Android Version".
Since I had "8.0 - Oreo" set here since the very first version of the app, I am sure this is IN FACT
the allowed/supported minimum system requirement.
------------------------------------------

So if I select "16 - API 36" in the "Minimum Android Version" (SIC!), then I may not be able to run the 
app on my own device (running Android 8.x)! NOT?

Ah, sorry also. 
I am not a Googlistics expert. 
They ask for API 36 now, because they want to push for new devices and whatever.
They claim that it is compatible with older versions… Let us hope.

My personal solution ? 
- For the Play Store do as they say. And try it on your oooooold phone. If it does not work :
- For your device, just install a separate standalone for your OS version (8).

But maybe some android experts will help with something better.
