Up the discussion, “Target SDK Version parameter to 31” is NOT a solution, Google Play demands to use API 33, but with API 33 the game is broken.

Ok, I did change a ManifestRequirementsOverride.txt file and it seems like the issue is fixed (at least on my android 13 there is no poput window anymore) will wait for the Google Play to approve and see if they find an issue.

Go to project folder to \Build\Android and make there ManifestRequirementsOverride.txt file with the content:

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" android:targetSdkVersion="33" />
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Did check, savings are working, but I did a test only by deploying .APK to the phone, not through the Google Play.

Will update the post if something is wrong.
