When our last update of the year drops, we are being forced to end support for certain operating systems. Devices that are running below iOS 10 or Android 4.4 will no longer be supported. Therefore, you will need to update your device to iOS 10 or higher, or Android 4.4 or higher on your respective devices.
For further information, please check out the details here: [https://clashofclans.com/blog/news/e…ndroid4_4.html](https://clashofclans.com/blog/news/end-of-support-ios-10-and-below-android4_4.html)

> Unfortunately, iOS 9 is half a decade old. In software terms, that is absolutely ancient.

> I’m really sorry to hear that, it’s just difficult to develop the game and support an operating system that is 8 years old. 4.2 came out in 2012.

Can’t use my iPad no more 🙁
Not surprised if a lot of people still using android 4. Windows XP still have huge user.
A few years ago this would have probably killed a lot of alt accounts (definitely would have killed all mine), but Supercell ID has made it so easy to have on one device that this honestly isn’t the end of the world anymore for the majority of players.
That stuff is ancient, had to go sooner or later.
RIP,Goodbye to coc then. I’m running android 4.2.
Make a Lite app for older devices please.
Rip my iPad mini
Where can I see what version I have?
I have honor 7
Is this live?
Literally just bought an iPad gen 2 a few weeks ago, waste of $100):
When does this take effect
alright, still have some time to update my phone as i have an android 5.1
so sad to hear this because sooner or later 4.4.2 will no longer support it I have 3 devices that are 4.4.2 that I use solely for clash so I guess I will retire or use my current android 10 phone to clash : (
oh shit
i have a less than ios 10
and my mother does not let me have games on my phone
i’m screwed
Figured that out the hard way, found my old dusty iPad Mini 1st gen a couple of weeks ago and decided that I wanted to give it some love again by playing coc; the game ran at 10 fps and when I wanted to battle it crashed. Just a question u/Darian_CoC, is it feasible to downgrade graphics and device demands for older device to work too? Like downgraded graphics and all.
Thankfully My tablet runs on Android 4.4.2, the bad news is, i’ll probably be the next target.
ok updating to android 5.0 now
so Android 4.4.2 will be ok to still play?
im stuck on ios 12. how much longer will it last? ty
I don’t think any phone running Android 4.4 can run this game without lag
aww, i play on a kindle fire hd lmaoo
This new update makes the game very bad
1. When on mobile data The game will be in black screen at opening then it tooks 2 min to load 2. It stucks at 1% loading and not load and afterwards it says bad connection but my connection is perfect fix it ASAP As i am unable to play game
My device is redmi note 4 android version is 7.0 please reply what i would do
Is this game still popular? Please answer
i dont understand how many guys are still using android 4.2 and below.. I mean how long can you manage to have a device intact and running? I’m poor btw, but i just can’t use the same device for like 2-3 years. Either i would have damaged it by accident or the battery life ran out or some problems always crawl up after years of use that i finally have to get a new phone. Android phones upgrade too fast i dont remember since when i last saw 4.2 devices in the shops.
Wait,there is IOS 11+ version???
Can I still play the game if my ios is lower?
