Question

Minimum Android version not recognized by Google Play?

Hi, I am in the process of submitting my game to Google Play and although in the manifest additions of the application descriptor I am setting:

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8"/>

Google Play doesn't seem to recognize the minimum Android version requirement (Android 2.2 in this case).

This is a screenshot from the Google Play front-end (as opposed to the Google Developer console):

BUT, if I check the minimum API in the Google Developer's console I can see that it is correctly set:

So which one is true?

I am concerned that once the game is live users with Android versions lower than 2.3 will be able to download the game and obviously experience problems on their devices.

Or am I missing something else here?

Any pointers in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.

Quick update, upon updating the final .apk to the Google Developer Console the problem seems solved with the web interface showing the correct minimum Android version required.
