Android SDK 35+ Upgrade

Job ID: 39888083

Budget: ₹600 – ₹5,000 INR

I need help moving an existing Android project from SDK 34 to 35 (or newer). The codebase already compiles cleanly on Version 34, but Google Play’s new requirements mean I now have to bump the compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion.

While you carry out the upgrade, several third-party dependencies will also need version bumps so everything builds together under the latest Gradle toolchain. I’m working in Android Studio Electric Eel and Gradle 8.x, however I’m happy to adopt whatever plugin or AGP level you recommend as long as the project stays fully functional.

Here’s what I’m aiming for:

• migrate the project to SDK 35+ (updating build.gradle, manifests, and any permission changes)
• update all library and Kotlin/Java dependencies required for a clean build
• resolve deprecations or breaking API changes introduced by the new SDK
• produce a signed release AAB that installs and runs on Android 13/14 devices without runtime crashes or warnings
• push the working changes back to my Git repository with a concise migration note

Acceptance is a successful CI build and a test install showing no compile-time or runtime errors. If you’ve handled similar upgrades recently, let me know roughly how long you expect the migration and dependency alignment to take.
