Yes, but needs modularization to be merged first. 👍

just to be sure: users with a 4.4 android version...

  • ...will not be able to install the app from scratch, because it will not appear neither in Google Play nor in FDroid. If they try to build the app, they can not install because the version is older than the sdkMinVersion set in the build.gradle
  • ...will not be able to upgrade to 2.15 in case they had already installed the app. They will keep the 2.14 forever.

is this correct? do i miss any other scenario?

Correct

will not be able to install the app from scratch, because it will not appear in FDroid

I think so, although I'm not sure how F-droid handles minSdkVersion. But I would expect the same behaviour as in Google Play.

If they try to build the app, they can not install because the version is older than the sdkMinVersion set in the build.gradle

That's right, I've just tried it and ...

...will not be able to upgrade to 2.15 in case they had already installed the app. They will keep the 2.14 forever.

Yes, I get the same error as in the previous image when updating the app.

Checks performed:

  • Install the current branch in Android 4.4 -> not posible
  • Upgrade to the current branch from latest stable in Android 4.4 -> not posible
  • Smoke test over Android > 4.4

Everything OK.
