NOT SUPPORTED

The platform may work but we do not actively focus on supporting this device or operating system. The app may suffer from glitches, poor performance or not run altogether.

 

Often these are devices that have reached their vendor EOL (End of Life). We highly suggest upgrading as these devices are often prone to security exploits.

CrowdComms actively attempts to keep the platform running smoothly on these devices. You are always welcome to report any issues to a member of support and we will do our best to resolve these problems.
