How to set ANDROID_NDK_PLATFORM ?

[felix99]

The default value is android-16, Should I set it to latest ndk platform ?

@felix99
in most cases it's the best to use the minimum API level required by your app.
Since a lower API level means that more people can use it in case they have an older phone.

@raven-worx ,I can estimate the api level supporting by balancing with user rate and function limit when I using android studio, because sdk document give me clarified information.
In QT, I have no idea how to make decision to select api level. of course, lower api level means more device supported, BUT, what is the cost?

I think, if you don't use Java code via Android Extras relying on a higher API level,
you can start with the lowest one supported by Qt
this means 18 for Qt 5.7

can someone confirm ?
