Once I have created a project with the Android wizard, how do I change the API Package from say 1.5 to 2.1 ?
I'm not referring to the application xml where the minimum API is set, I'm referring to the jar's included in my project to the Google APIs.
If you are using Eclipse just right click on your project select properties now choose android. You should now be able to select another build target. If you want to the API package change the checkbox from 4 to 7.
Step 1: Open your project in Android mode then go to Gradle Scripts > build. gradle(Module: app) as shown in the following image. Step 2: Refer to the below image and here you have to change the minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion as per the requirement.
When you upload an APK, it must meet Google Play's target API level requirements. New apps must target Android 12 (API level 31) or higher; except for Wear OS apps, which must target Android 11 (API level 30) or higher.
What is API Level? API Level is an integer value that uniquely identifies the framework API revision offered by a version of the Android platform. The Android platform provides a framework API that applications can use to interact with the underlying Android system.
Are you using Eclipse for this because you tagged the question with eclipse. If you are using Eclipse just right click on your project select properties now choose android. You should now be able to select another build target. If you want to the API package change the checkbox from 4 to 7.
If you are not using Eclipse and want to use the Android console program use the terminal program android in the following way
android update project -p <path to project> -t <new target api level>
Using Eclipse, it may not change the SDK version correctly just going right click and properties. Open the manifest file and change the line
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="number-of-version-you-want" />
