Upcoming stack deprecations

May 12, 2025

Stacks are not kept forever, older stacks are eventually marked for removal. You can read more about this in our stack deprecation and removal policy.

This page is an up-to-date overview of upcoming stack deprecations.

Upcoming stack deprecations #

The following table shows the currently deprecated stacks that are marked for removal.

While the stack is marked as deprecated, you can still run builds on it, but it’s recommended to migrate your workflows to a more modern stack. On the day of removal, remaining users will be migrated to the stack shown in the Automatic migration to column. If you encounter any difficulties during migration or require support, our dedicated customer support team would be happy to assist.

Ubuntu 22 public preview

Jan 25, 2024

The Ubuntu 22 stack is now available in public preview. This is another Linux stack recommended for Android workflows, but based on Ubuntu 22.04 instead of Ubuntu 20.04.

Besides the new OS version, the new stack has a few major changes that we long wanted to make, but we didn’t want to break workflows running on the Ubuntu 20 stack.
