    Hi guys,

    I have updated my Android SDK to Android API 28 ( Android 9) from android studio SDK manager but it is not appearing in unity' Minimum API Level and Target API level.

    I read somewhere that even though it is not listed in unity if I select Automatic (Highest Installed) then unity will take care. Recently I checked my crash reports on Unity's dashboard - Android API 28 devices are getting crashed because of uuid symbols missing. Can it be due to API level not listed in Unity.

    I am getting these crashes for only on API 28 devices.
    Can anyone help?

    Thanks,

    Not sure which Unity version you're checking, but for me, in Unity 2018.2 it shows API 27 as highest but for Unity 2018.3 it shows API 28 (Pie)

    Hey guys, I'm stuck in Unity 2017* so just wondering if there's any solution for poor souls like us? (*I'm stuck in 2017 because we reference 1500+ assetbundles built in 2017 on an s3 cloud which are not compatible in 2018+ built apps..)

    "Both new apps and app updates must target at least Android 9 (API level 28)."

    I'm using Unity 5.6.7f1 but the Target API Level only supports up to Android 8.1 (API Level 27).
    How can I resolve this issue? Thanks.

    Hi guys,
    just wanted to help out here
    You can search the docs for the min and target Android versions supported by different Unity versions here:
    https://docs.unity3d.com/2018.2/Documentation/ScriptReference/AndroidSdkVersions.html
    https://docs.unity3d.com/2018.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/AndroidSdkVersions.html
    I am using 2018.2 and as you can see in link, I will have to move to 2018.3 to target Android API Level 28

    Also, you can see here Unity is removing support for Android Api 18 and below in latest Unity versions..
