Samsung A14 5G (SM-A145M/DS), One UI 6.0, Android 14
Play Store version: 41.1.19-31 [0] [PR] 636190650
Recently apps like X/Twitter, Uber, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Spotify, Mercado Pago, and many others are said to be not available for my device. The Google's Play Store says that they are not compatible with the version of my android. I'm aware that the new android 14 has the targetSDK policy that blocks old apps to be installed, but this would only be understandable if it was old apps, but as you can see that's not the case.
So, this is a bug/issue of the new security update or is a bug from the Google's Play Store? I'm asking because I couldn't find any relevant information about it (I'm the only one facing this issue?!).
Right now, I can only update some of these apps through the Galaxy Store, but not all of them are available there, like Mercado Pago (A fintech Bank).

I have all the last updates, and I even tried to update the play store, but it says that I have the latest version. And yes, my device is not rooted, and neither the play store is installed from an APK.
My hope is that, maybe, the play store update is still rolling out to all users to fix this issue. In the meantime, I will also try to reach out someone at Google play support forum.
