I am writing to request an update of the Go Mobile project’s package dependencies to the latest Go version, specifically version 1.22. Keeping dependencies up to date is essential for ensuring security, performance, and access to the latest features and improvements in the Go programming language.
Could you please prioritize this update and provide an estimated timeline for its completion? If there are any prerequisites or considerations we need to be aware of, kindly let me know.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.

https://go.dev/cl/590455 recently updated x/mobile's dependencies to the latest tagged versions. Is this sufficient for your purposes?
Or are you asking to update the Go version in the go.mod file? In which case:
Keeping dependencies up to date is essential for ensuring security, performance, and access to the latest features and improvements in the Go programming language.
Note that the Go version in the go.mod file is only about specifying language features available to x/mobile. It does not correspond at all to the actual version of the toolchain used. If you have a CL that wants to make use of new Go features in x/mobile we can talk about updating the go.mod version, but otherwise I don't see a reason to update it.
Closing optimistically, but please feel free to provide more detail and we can reopen if necessary. Thanks.
