INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK error message

If your minSdkVersion is higher than the Android version you are using (i.e. using an emulator that supports API 19 and your target version is for API 23), then you may see an error message that appears similar to the following :
Application Installation Failed
You will need to either lower the minSdkVersion or upgrade to an Android emulator or device that supports the minimum SDK version required.
