| 2024-11-01 | MC prepare | If you choose to build apps targeting Android API 35, you will need to adopt the new version of the Intune App SDK for Android (v11.0.0). If you have wrapped your app and are targeting API 34 you will need to use the new version of the App Wrapping Tool (v1.0.4549.6).
Note: As a reminder, while apps must update to the latest SDK if targeting Android 15, apps do not need to update the SDK to simply run on Android 15. You should also plan to update your documentation or developer guidance if applicable to include this change in support for the SDK.
