I’ve been working on moving from the reader sdk to mobile payments sdk as per requirements
something my team has noticed while testing is that we are not able to connect to a reader from devices on the android 16 beta. It just gets stuck “connecting…”
android 16’s release should be coming up very soon so is this something that will be supported when android 16 launches or should it be working already?
devices on android 11, 12, 14 and 15 have all been tested to pair and take payments successfully, but devices on android 16 do not pair right now
