Part of Play Store policy compliance: App must target Android 16 (API level 36) or higher — Fix by Aug 31 (Play Console warning, ~3 weeks away).

The app already targets API 35, so the significant behavior changes from that generation (edge-to-edge enforcement etc.) are already absorbed. Targeting 36 mainly picks up stricter intent matching and predictive-back defaults, neither of which this app relies on.

CI's emulator E2E (API 29) plus unit tests cover the regression risk; a manual smoke test on an Android 16 device before the next Play release is still advisable.

Sibling PRs for the other Play policy items: #213 (16 KB pages); accessibility prominent disclosure to follow.

Google Play requires app updates to target API 36 by Aug 31, 2026
(warning already active in Play Console). App already targets 35, so
the 35-era behavior changes (edge-to-edge etc.) are absorbed; API 36
has no additional manifest requirements for this app.
