Waze update ends support for older Android phones

Waze, the popular navigation app, has announced that it will end support for older Android devices running versions below Android 10. This change will affect older smartphones, tablets, and in-car infotainment systems that are not compatible with the latest Android version. The decision to drop support for older Android versions is likely due to the need to provide better performance, security, and access to new features. As technology advances, app developers often need to focus their efforts on the most up-to-date platforms to ensure a seamless user experience. Users with older Android devices will still be able to use the Waze app, but they will no longer receive updates or have access to the latest features. This may limit their ability to take advantage of the app's full functionality and could potentially impact their navigation experience. The change is expected to affect a significant number of Waze users, as many people may still be using older Android devices. However, the app's developers have likely weighed the benefits of focusing on newer platforms against the needs of users with older devices.
