Android 13 warns this app is outdated at startup and also requires permissions at startup.

So this app likely needs some library updates.

Well, the app does not use any special library. I would rather say, it needs a simple recompilation (with a more recent version of gradle). Thats all. Looks like, Android is not backwards compatible any more.

Another question here is: should we give up support for old android versions (2.x.x and 3.x) ?

IMHO give up support for v2 and 3 of android. We're at android 13 for now and while there is the update problem in the
Android space, such old versions are likely dead IRL, too.

And even if, people could install the old version then.

I also guess an SDK update is needed here.

Well the app works, so technically it works.
It's "just" a warning.

I guess https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/update may help here.
