How to find out why an #Android app is not compatible?
A banking app on my Android 11 phone started saying after June it would stop working.
After that I uninstalled to try and fix the issue but since then #GooglePlay says the app is not compatible, even though the bank's website says it works with v5 and above.
I've since looked at two other banking apps and Google Play says neither is compatible with my #Alcatel 1 phone.
There's no way to find out why or if a different phone will work.
@jkeyne that's a useful tip. It hasn't worked but I've learned a bit.
I can download but the install fails saying it can't find compatible ABIs. But my phone reports an MT6739 processor, which is Armv8 and I can see the app apk's in #AuroraStore include v8a.
The apps claim to be targeting SDK 33 (Android v13) which means they should work with my v11 (SDK 30).
Several apps are like this, I suspect all updated to SDK33 because recent Play deadline but now won't work on this v11 #Armv8 phone 🤷♂️
