Migrating legacy Google Play Billing Library versions requires analyzing build configurations to determine whether a direct or stepped migration is needed, then refactoring deprecated APIs like SkuDetails into ProductDetails and enforcing mandatory auto-reconnection patterns for compliance.

Direct Play Billing migration applies when moving straight to the latest stable release is safe, whereas stepped migration incrementally upgrades through intermediate library versions to resolve deprecated APIs and ensure current SDK compliance.

Replacing deprecated SkuDetails with ProductDetails in Android Kotlin requires refactoring source code to use modern billing patterns, shifting to product-based querying to maintain compatibility with the latest Play Billing Library.

Yes, upgrading the Play Billing Library requires compileSdk 35 to meet the latest SDK compliance requirements, ensuring your Android project supports mandatory modern billing patterns like auto-reconnection.

Your Play Billing build fails after updating Gradle dependencies because legacy source code likely contains deprecated APIs that violate current SDK requirements, requiring an upgrade path calculation and refactoring to modern product-based querying patterns.

The best way to automate Android Play Billing migration is to use a structured tool that analyzes existing Gradle build configurations and source code to generate a refactoring checklist, calculate the necessary upgrade path, and verify compliance with current SDK requirements.
