stripe
Use the new stripe-android 21.3.* instead of 20.52.*
The latest release v0.2.16 from January 24th still uses stripe-android 20.52.* just like the previous version v0.2.14

Would be great to see such a release!
Check the current main branch here
@kentwilliams-stripe I've seen that the recent releases only update stripe-ios, but not stripe-android:
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.2.16
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.2.17
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.3.0
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.3.1
Is there a specific reason, why you didn’t update stripe-android for a while?
We are waiting for this fix to be included in stripe-identity-react-native:

@luisv-stripe I'd like to understand why only stripe-ios is being updated, but not stripe-android anymore? Also with the latest release https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.3.4
Thanks for your help!
@kentwilliams-stripe I've seen that you've just released the new version https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/releases/tag/v0.3.5 It still uses the old stripe-android version 20.52.+
https://github.com/stripe/stripe-identity-react-native/blob/6c728cdf45ac98e921f89b12ec0c008cd0329682/android/gradle.properties#L3
Isn’t that the central point where the version of stripe-android, that should be used, is defined?
@googol7 We are aware of the issue, thank you for flagging this. We will get a fix out early June most likely
Hello guys any update? We are blocked, we cannot send Android updates :(
We also cannot release new Android apps which use stripe-android or stripe-identity-react-native because currently stripe-android uses the target compileSdkVersion = 34
See:
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-android/issues/11255
and Google announced this: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/11926878
Starting August 31 2025:
- New apps and app updates must target Android 15 (API level 35) or higher to be submitted to Google Play; except for Wear OS, Android Automotive OS, and Android TV apps, which must target Android 14 (API level 34) or higher.
- Existing apps must target Android 14 (API level 34) or higher to remain available to new users on devices running Android OS higher than your app’s target API level. Apps that target Android 13 (API level 33) or lower, including Android 12 (API level 31) or lower for Wear OS and Android TV, will only be available on devices running Android OS that are the same or lower than your apps’ target API level.

Do you have an update for us?
And what do you think about this core problem:
- https://github.com/stripe/stripe-android/issues/11255
I have the feeling the entire stripe-react-native team was fired because the silence here is deafening while it's blocking all developers from releasing their Android application, which is one of the worst things that can happen? Anybody aware if there is some kind of Stripe Developer Support center?
@googol7 thanks for flagging this again. Upgrading this Android version is complex since it has to support new architecture, but we are already working on this and will likely release an updated version before November.
