Hi There I need to test my app on Android versions lt API 19 kotlinlang #android

Hi There, I need to test my app on Android versions <API-19. When trying to build an emulator of the same, it says your app would not run unless you update Googgle Play Services. But couldn't find any option to do so. Can anybody help?

you need to download emulator with API-19 and play services

use the one on the top with Google API

I am sorry, updated the question

Yes, was able to test on API-19 but not lower than that

My app supports till API-17

@Himanshu Sharma any idea about it?

theoretically it should work with

API-17 (with Google API) emulator

unless there is a bug with that version. I have not used API-17 in a while so not sure, will give it a try as soon as I get chance and see if I can find something

Thanks @Ananiya! It allowed to download but failed during update due to "conflicting signature".
