I am trying to set up App Invites beta library in my application.
The guide suggests to add this dependency:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0’
with 8.4 being the latest version, but actually I want to stick with v. 7.8 (or so) for a while, because in my experience lots of devices are still below, and if they install my app they’ll be asked to update their play services. Nothing wrong, but I just want to stick with that version for a while.
I couldn’t find any info about that on the official docs.
AppInvites was first released in Play Services 8.1. It received a fairly significant update in 8.4, but before that it didn't change much from what I can tell.
