Migrating your established game to target O and beyond
summary
Google Play requires target SDK 26 requirement for updates (new apps must target 26+ since August 2018), which flips runtime behavior: alarms become inexact unless using setExactAndAllowWhileIdle, background services cannot be started when the app is backgrounded, and wakelocks get cut off. Network broadcasts must move to JobScheduler or Firebase JobDispatcher. Notifications need notification channels or they won’t appear. Test on Developer Preview 2 for non‑SDK API breaks. Use Oboe AAudio for sub‑10ms audio.
