Whitelabel App - Google Play requirements

Development

Hi everyone,

Google have changed their requirements for publishing apps to the playstore as of Aug-2021 and currently the react native project doesn’t meet these requirements.
See their requirements here:
https://developer.android.com/distribute/best-practices/develop/target-sdk
In short it needs to be published using a app bundle (.aab) and target SDK 30.

The repo I have been looking at is the single-server branch of the below:

Is there any intention to update this to meet those requirements?
Or am I missing something and if so is there anywhere I can find information to build a bundle that meets the requirements?

Many thanks

I think this link answers it

https://open.rocket.chat/channel/react-native?msg=9j3hRb9T2YuXYgtjS

It contains a breaking change on storage access we need to address before updating.
We’re going to work on that soon.
Deadline is november iirc.
