Android Release Requires 21 but 911 Devices Get Dropped?

[Ralph DiMola]

BR,

If I read the release notes correctly Android versions

4.4 (KitKat)

4.1-4.3 (Jelly Bean)

4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Are no longer supported.

Supported Android minimum version is now 5.0-5.1 (Lollipop)

What is 

"4.x" ?

 Minimum Android Version?

I did as you suggested last year, two builds

e.g
version 22 for arm v7 and arm64
version 23 for x86 and x86_64

both came in (using SDK 21) about 95MB

the last versions, (20,21) done with SDK 18 were about 70MB

the analysis did not complain about the size  of the download, only that

"Doesn't support framework version <uses-sdk>
21 and onwards"

    From the release notes: 4.x support is dropped. That represents 5% of all active installs but may be a higher percentage of devices. What architectures are you building for? Putting all 4 into one apk can exceed the size limits for some devices.
