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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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 : (

  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. 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.
