Supported Android Version
Full support is only available for Android versions that are still being supported by Google. All features are available on most devices (we have not encountered a device that does not support all features yet, but due to the large numbers of Android device full feature support is not guaranteed).
Partially support is available from us for some older Android versions that Google is no longer supporting. Some features may not work on some of these older partially supported devices.
