●DEADLINE — From August 31, 2026, Google Play requires target API level 36 (Android 16) or higher for both new apps and updates to existing ones. Thirteen days left●EXTENSION — If you cannot make the date, the deadline extension form in Play Console buys you until November 1. The extension is not automatic, so the request itself has to land before August 31●TARGET SDK — Even for Expo and React Native apps produced by builders like Rork, the targetSdkVersion is yours to verify. A template pinned to an older SDK will not meet the requirement on its own●POLICY — The spam and minimum functionality policy has been tightened around high-quality features and content experience, which puts thin, mass-produced apps squarely in scope●PRIVACY — You are expected to explain in detail what data is collected, how it is used, and whether it is shared, including analytics SDKs and advertising identifiers a builder wires in for you●RORK — Where the original Rork emits React Native and Expo, Rork Max generates SwiftUI. There is a free tier to start with, and paid plans begin at $25 per month●DEADLINE — From August 31, 2026, Google Play requires target API level 36 (Android 16) or higher for both new apps and updates to existing ones.
