I plan on creating an application for users to view their stats of a game I am currently in the process of making but my question is like the title. I am not sure if phones with Android 3.0, Android 2.0 or lower can use the apps? If not, how would I work around this? Would I just not be able to use the new API features such as NFC etc? All in all, if I start developing with Android 4.0 SDK, will all android phones be able to use my app?

To get to the developer options, open your device's Settings app and navigate to System > Advanced > Developer options > App Compatibility Changes.
Final version: 4.0. 4; released on March 29, 2012. Initial version: Released on October 18, 2011. Google no longer supports Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
It appears to be an issue with Google's Android operating system. To fix the “your device is not compatible with this version” error message, try clearing the Google Play Store cache, and then data. Next, restart the Google Play Store and try installing the app again.
My understanding of android development, is that you can build against a lowest common denominator if you build a single package, and it will run on that version, and most likely any newer version. But not the other way around.
