I'm still working on upgrading Pocket Casts to Android 15 with edge-to-edge support. I found you can deploy to multiple emulators with each run. Having SDK 24 (our lowest), 30, 34, and 35 seems to be the best combination to catch issues.

I'm not having a fun time trying to implement Android 15 edge-to-edge on SDK 24, Android 7.1, Nougat from 2016! My top tip so far is convert your app to Compose first.
