android                    36.0.0-rc.2.332/10.0.100-rc.2               SDK 10.0.100-rc.2

Android 36.1

To try out the new APIs, you can opt your project into the new net10.0-android36.1 target framework:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net10.0-android36.1</TargetFramework>
    <EnablePreviewFeatures>true</EnablePreviewFeatures>
    <!-- Remainder of your .csproj -->

Note that if omitted, net10.0-android will default to API 36.0. $(EnablePreviewFeatures) will not be required in future .NET 10 releases.

To use an Android 36.1-only API you can use the OperatingSystem class to check the Android version at runtime:

if (OperatingSystem.IsAndroidVersionAtLeast(36, 1))
{
    // Call some Android 36.1 API here
}
else
{
	// Fallback for older OS versions
	ShowToast("Android 36.1+ is required for this feature");
}

See the Android documentation for a full diff of the new available APIs in Android 36.1.

For a full sample using Android 36.1 APIs, see our Pdf Annotator sample on GitHub.

To install the Android 36.1 platform, you can go to Tools > Android > Android SDK Manager. Under the gear icon in the bottom right, change Repository to Full List. This allows you to install Android SDK Platform 36.1.
