Why do they always release new versions

so that you won't get hacked by brown people.

Forced obsolescence. You can still write apps that support old versions pretty easily but nobody does.

old API give the apps total accesses to your files etc...
That's why nobody does that.

Every now and then I receive an e-mail telling me to update the minimum version of Android supported by my apps, warning me that if I don't they'll remove my apps from Google Play. This is "for security reasons". The real reason is to make older devices unable to install any app anymore.

I remember my HTC one m8 getting the new lollipop update, police had it for marshmallow and i had a shitty replacement xperia. Was fuming

>>109702594
They didn't design it right the first time and it's too hard to fix everything all at once
