Is it very important for us to do this update 31? If so, when is the last date? What are the benefits of updating our app?

Why do you think you need help? Niotron is meanwile API31 ready… just build your app. .

When did you build your app? Niotron was already updated on Sept 2nd, see also Patch 2.7.0
Are you sure, you uploaded the correct file to Google Play?
