Title: Play services version
Post by: MrPlow on 2016-Sep-11
Hi SF et al

Can you tell me what version of play services are used in AE 2.9 and more recent AE versions please?

Google sent a notice out and i want to make sure all is okay with it :)

I'm not remember yet, but I'm updated it when android 5.0 was new. All I'm did was just update the google play jar.

Great!
So we all should be okay for admob ads to continue working as these are minimum versions ... So all should be fine :)

Its seen its only the standalone SDK that have the issue. We use google-play-services.jar version, which is quite old (im not sure which version required there. (check androidmanifest.xml, since im not remember it).

Currectly im have no idea how to update it, due a major change to it. The newest revision does NOT have that required file, so im need to consult the android dev forum.

Oh dear, but its should not been a issue. But im will look on that, but im do not sure its on time before that.

Hi Sf

I didn't quite follow you there...
So is the playservices thing an issue or are we okay that ads will continue to work??

Here are ones that will be deprecated by Google

perhaps all is fine as playservices was not included in those versions on the deprecated list? I think?

That standalone sdk was already deprecated when I'm started this service... It's was in around 2014.
