![]() I dug into this deeper and here is what I learned. You just got caught with the last 32bit iPad Mini, and that is really what has caused there to be such a hard line between what Apple will/won't support. And when you consider Apple supports the iPhone 5S (2013), and all 2014 and later devices, that is quite a feat compared to what other OEMs support. They really dictate what developers support. If you want to get irritated at anyone, get irritated at Apple. I doubt if Evernote even has the capability to compile a 32bit iOS app any longer, much less test with. All other 2013 phones and iPads had moved to the 64 bit processor. Apple has 100% abandoned 32 bit processors for iOS devices, the last of which I believe shipped in 2013 with the iPhone 5C. It has a 32bit processor and no secure enclave. That is 5 years old now, and ancient in computer terms. For example, how would the old client that supports OS 9 handle the new tables? Would it trash them outright? Would it only trash them if you opened a note with one? Would it trash it if you modified other content in the note but not the table? And that is just one example, all of which have to be tested for.Įvernote supports all current devices that Apple deems "current." The original iPad Mini was released in 2012. They would need to modify it to support changes to the Evernote service itself so it at a minimum didn't trash new and/or modified features. They would need to continually modify it to support the ever-changing Evernote servers in how they handle the sync operation. They would need to provide ongoing security and privacy fixes. They would still have to support it though. Just allowing it download would be a fair. I don't to spend more moeny to purchase a newer iPad. I am paying for Evernote for my person account. Now I am supposed to try to jailbreak the tablet to get it sideload I guess. ![]() ![]() Still I don't understanding why doesn't Evernote provide an older version for download. IOS 9 is not that old and it was only discontinued recently. Why is that? Not even available for download from the Apple Store? It's disappointing Evernote is no longer available for download for iOS v9. I bought a new iPad Mini (original, version 1) for kids for about $150 which I find reasonable. If that's not the case, older versions of Evernote may be available if you search the web, but I'm not aware of any sites which offer them offhand. ![]() (I'm not an Apple user, so no practical experience here.) Wider Wiser heads than I 1have mentioned that when installing / upgrading from the Apple store, you should be offered a version of the app which works with your existing OS. Plus for each new development in Evernote, someone has to look at all the other 'older' OS's to check whether some or all of the new functionality can be added in a different way by some expert coding in the old language.Įvernote has to maintain programmers who can deal with older operating systems, and will continue getting lots of flack from older OS users because their devices don't have access to features that everyone else can use as part of their paid-for package. Their OS just won't be capable enough to run them well, or at all. Evernote, like all other developers, will presumably take advantage of as many of the new features as they can so as to provide the best experience for their users - which means that users with older OS's will increasingly be left out of the loop when it comes to Evernote improvements. The latest iOS and 3D modelling forinstance. I can see Evernote's point - the most recent versions of any OS are (usually) the most capable. ![]()
