Summer of Code results are here. We are now Android 11+ compatible.
Here's the changelog, it's a big one.
We had to make some tough decisions, from now on we have discontinued support for Android 6.0 devices.
Android 6 was released in 2015, as of the time of this writing.
If you have a 6 year old phone, we're sorry we can't push more updates for you, we had no choice. We wish you get a new phone, it's going to be awesome compared to your old one.

Troubleshooting / Reported Issues
This one took a while, still not fully ready. We have one nasty crash on startup on some arm devices that we're trying to nail down, but we need more crash stack traces, so here it is.
If it doesn't crash the app works very well (at least on our test devices), please report any issues you may encounter here
