An existing app on React Native 0.61.3 is currently using the following build.gradle settings:

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "28.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 28
        targetSdkVersion = 29
    }
    ...
}

Google now and in the future will require a fairly recent targetSdkVersion to be discoverable and installable on Google Play (source). In the short term this means removal of targetSdkVersion 29 or below from 1st of November 2022.

What evaluations can be made when assessing the concequences of bumping targetSdkVersion e.g. to 33, without bumping the React Native version? What can break?

Modifications are going to be done in hopes of the least amount of changes. React Native bump has been evaluated to include a significant amount of manual work to get it up to more recent version.
