about system requirements

I can't install this app on android version 7.1.2
What is the minimum android version required to run the app?

I didn’t know that Google Play supported deprecated versions of Android like this 😅

Android 7 = soooo old! It’s Android 15 now.

Android 7.1.2 was released 7 years ago...
Only the oldest apps support it!

It’s been end of life this month:

It is currently only available for versions of Android 8 or higher
The main problem is due to SSL certificates no longer being supported for Android 7 or lower

Is that all? For example, version 8.0 of the app does not work on Android 7.1.2 because it also requires systemwebview v79.

[SergioGlorias]

version 8.0 is from the old application and does not belong to this repository (see: https://github.com/lichess-org/lichobile )
but it is also affected by the SSL certificate
except that it was no longer updated to block these versions
