Hi @abhinavsinghring, this one is interesting as 5.1.0 uses a non-deprecated version of the Android SDK (23.0.0) - can you confirm what Android SDK version you are running? And can you also provide steps to reproduce?

abhinavsinghring commented 3 months ago

Hi @malandr2, I have encountered this while running on SdkVersion 31. While my app's minsdkVersion is 23 and targetSdkVersion is 34

This log message didn't appear before yesterday and when I was using google_mobile_ads: ^4.0.0. I thought maybe updating the package would fix this but after updating I'm still seeing it whenever the ad loads.

And I don't exactly know how to reproduce this as it comes from nowhere.

Hi @abhinavsinghring, I confirmed with the Android engineering team this log fire for all users if you're not on the latest Android SDK version. The Flutter plugin is currently running on 23.0.0 while the most up to date is 23.2.0. Every Flutter release pulls in the latest version of the Android/iOS SDKs at the time of the release.

The Flutter plugin's next release (expected next month) will use Android SDK >= 23.2.0

If you need to reference the latest SDK in the meantime it is possible, though not recommended, to add the latest dependency in the Android layer
