Is there any particular reason for adding minSdk = 24?

The application worked with minSdk = 21. Is it possible to change the minSdk version?

Hi, The main reason why 24 was chosen as the minSdk version is because, some Android SDK Components which are used in the library have a minSdk version of 23 or so. And also, Android's own ProgressDialog component was depcrecated in API Level 26 and hence my aim was to offer a similar component to Android developers, and hence I kept the minSdk as 24, which is 2 versions behind 26.

I do find it odd to know that it is working in API Level 21. I will check if I had declared the minSdk = 24 in the wrong place. A library module works differently as compared to App module. But, I would still recommend you to use it in apps which have minSdk as 24 or above, in order to avoid bugs.
