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.

The problem, as most of the time, are bad actors. Which is the reason some permissions, SAF, disallowing targeting lower SDK versions etc were introduced on the Play Store.
