    Description

      Qt 5 declares that it supports API level >= 21, this is also seen in qtbase/configure.pri:

              platform = $$eval(config.input.android-ndk-platform)
        isEmpty(platform): \
            platform = android-21

      but the change https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/commit/src/android/jar/src/org/qtproject/qt5/android/QtLayout.java?h=v5.15.12-lts-lgpl&id=45b98e1ac708faa6c7e6f5bd26e23cc0e408b4e0 added method getRootWindowInsets() which is available only from API level 23, see android docs: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View#getRootWindowInsets()

      Hence apps running on devices with API level < 23 crash on start:
