Android versions supported by DroidBot

What are the Android versions currently supported by DroidBot? Looking forward to your reply. Thank you so much.
The latest supported version should be Android 31.
Later versions are not supported mainly because they are not supported by the minicap library.

Hi @yuanchun-li,
Thank you for this wonderful tool.
However, I want to use this tool with Android 32 and I am interested in contributing to upgrading the tool to support Android 32.
Can you please let me know how to do it?
Best.
Sure. To support Android 32, the key is to upgrade the minicap library which is used to capture screenshot in droidbot. Unfortunately, it seems the minicap library is no longer maintained.
So you may need to find another way to capture the screenshot. I used adb shell screencap command before, but it was slow. If obtaining the screenshots is not necessary for you, you may try to set self.adapters[self.minicap] to False in device.py to see whether it works.
@yuanchun-li thank you for the input. Actually, I don't need the screen-capturing feature for my purpose. So I will try your suggestion.
Thanks again for your help.
Regards.
Hi @yuanchun-li,
I am updating your scripts to support Android 32. I will send you a PR once I am done (if that's okay with you).
Best.
Sure. Please go ahead.
