Has anyone successfully targeted Android API Level 35 in a .NET MAUI app?

I recently got a critical warning from Google Play Console: "2 of your apps are targeting an old version of Android. Google Play requires all apps to meet target API level requirements before August 31, 2025." I'm currently targeting: net8.0-android34.0 I understand this corresponds to API Level 34 (Android 14). But it seems Google may require API Level 35 soon, or already expects it. Has anyone here been able to successfully target Android API Level 35 (android-35) using .NET MAUI?

  1. If yes:

Which version of .NET are you using? (.NET 8 or .NET 9)?

  • Did you install the Android 35 SDK and set it manually in your project? Any issues during build or publish to Google Play? Would really appreciate hearing from someone who has already implemented this and submitted their app to the Play Store.

Maui on .net 8 went out of support on May 14, 2025. You need to update to .net 9 to get 35 support.

    You can install the latest version of visual studio. Then you can choose Framework .Net 9.0(Standard Term Support) or .Net 8.0(Standard Term Support) when you create a new app.

    Has anyone here been able to successfully target Android API Level 35 (android-35) using .NET MAUI?

    After that, you can install the required Android Sdk and tools as you need. I am currently in the work environment you mentioned.
