Cordova Android 6.2.2 Released!
By: Steve Gill
28 Apr 2017

We are happy to announce that Cordova Android 6.2.2 has been released! This patch release adds support for android sdk tools 26.0.1. We strongly recommend upgrading to this version if you are using the latest Android sdk tools. Older versions of Cordova-Android do not work with the latest Android sdk tools!

To upgrade:

npm install -g cordova
cd my_project
cordova platform update android@6.2.2

To add it explicitly:

cordova platform add android@6.2.2

This release will have to be explicitly added until the upcoming cordova@7 release, where it will be pinned as the default android platform.
