Haven't found an answer to this. I'm trying to integrate an external lib into my android project. My targetSdkVersion is 27. The external lib's documentation mentions that it "supports" targetSdkVersion 25. What does this mean? Can I integrate it into my app without changing my targetSdkVersion (which I obviously dont want)? Is it backward compatible like that? I havent found any exact info on this.

It means the external library supports only till SDK 25. You'll have to copy it to your project and manually update the SDK version in the external library, and hope it works. Till SDK 25 is actually pretty good, so you might not face any problems while compiling. If there are any problems, you'll have to go in and fix it in the code. Another solution is to raise a request to the original author, but there won't be any guarantee on when he'll do it and upload the project.
