    The standard now I believe is 5.0(API 21) upwards. You can find out more here

    I just compiled for android 5.0. The application launched on the device and even showed the start screen of the game. But when I enter the level, the application reports an error and crashes! Maybe it's in the open gl es version?

    You will need to download all the APIs from 5.0 to the latest build if you want the game to work on those devices.

    Unfortunately, nothing happens. I recorded a video.

    Oh it's on an emulator. Do you have a device to test on? I'm not sure if BB3 works correctly with the emulator or if there's any additional steps, or hardware requirements. @Sean Buildbox will shed some light.

    I tested on asus fonepad with android 5.0 and the result was the same. Tomorrow I will have (I bought) a Huawei with Android 8.1 I will try!
