SDK Versions and Support

As a platform for mobile gaming, Skillz provides integration with iOS and Android via Unity as well as direct integrations with the Apple and Google APIs. This page provides clarity on the details of how we provide support for both developers and players across those integrations. We will update this page each quarter, provided any updates are needed. We recommend that you check this page, as well as the requirements listed in the Release Notes for the Skillz SDK version you are using before raising a request to Skillz developer support.

In addition to the information presented here, developers should be aware that the Skillz Accelerate program is only available to games with builds running Skillz SDK versions released within the last six months - or the most recent Stable SDK, if it was released more than six months ago - at the time of submission.
