My question is Should I install all SDK versions or only latest version (...API24,API25,API26,API27,API28,API29,API30,API31,API32...) is enough for uploading my unity game to google play? I have just installed the latest API version(Currently API32). But in Google Play there could be players which has lower version of API like API24. My question is also for JDKs and NKDs If it these have the same solutions. Does it important(For Google Play) to have latest version of STK JDK NDK? Edit:I adjust as use maximum API level in unity

Note:I imagine like if I made mistake about this ,some of players can not play my game. If It is real, I don't want to lose some players. I imagine like this so please help:)

I recommend you to set the target SDK to API30, so that most of players can run your game perfectly.

    Google Play needs a minimum TargetAPI of 30 from August 2021 (or November 2021 for app updates) – chrisbtoo Feb 26 '22 at 01:55

What about visa versa? So shall we use 30API level as @chrisbtoo said, or shall we use laters API version(currently API32)? What if lower API level devices can not see our apps/games? – SeyAhYo Feb 26 '22 at 22:37

    @SeyAhYo you can target an API version higher than the the required on, but I'd say you're better off with 31 rather than 32 at the moment, as 32 hasn't been finalized yet. Your `minSdkVersion` specifies the minimum API required, and it should run on anything above that. FWIW my apps generally have a `minSdkVersion` of 21 (Android 5). – chrisbtoo Feb 27 '22 at 15:58
