[QUOTE="Ink, post: 1063996, member: 3"] It's not completely unsafe to run older versions of Android, but it's advised to run supported software. Android 7 stopped official support in 2019, 4 years ago. A new Android phone doesn't come preloaded with A7, but a previous version. That makes any phones running A7 today, must have been bought around 2014/2015. Given that most phones get 2 major updates, A7 users had a minimum of 2 years to upgrade before this announcement. My current phone launched with A8 and now runs A10. Its official support ended early 2023, this gives me another year or two without having to worry about important apps not getting further updates. There's always a [I]chance[/I] that Firefox will remain to be supported on A7.
