Thank you google for killing yet another great app. There should be special category for apps that are "Done, Complete, Perfect as is", as with decent backwards compatibility on Android there should be no issues with them. I bet apk compiled for Android 1 still runs perfectly on Android 15.

Depends on the exact functionality. I'm aware of some battery events you could listen to from the manifest file in 2, that were removed at some point after that and now you have to listen for them from a running service. It broke a bunch of battery monitoring apps when it happened.

Also with services, there's additional requirements to keep them running that weren't there early on.
