Originally assigned to: @LucasXu0 on GitHub.

Bug Description

I wanted to install AppFlowy on my Samsung Galaxy A8 2018 (SM-A530F) with Android 9, but got blocked by Play Store saying my device is not compatible with the application. Also tried by using the CI APK file, but didn't work aswell.

How to Reproduce

I guess this happens on any Android 9 device, so just try it With any of them.

Expected Behavior

I would expect to be able to install the application.

Operating System

Android 9

AppFlowy Version(s)

0.4.9

Screenshots

Additional Context

As a solution, I do not really expect to see the app compatible with my Android version in the future, but maybe add a compatibility note somewhere on the repository ? Searched for compatibility on the repository and didn't find any compatibility note.

@Quentindeve We now support Android versions greater than 10, and supporting versions lower than 10 is in the plans.

May I know reasons why the app doesn't already support Android < 10 ?

I got the same problem with Android 14, but with custom ROM (GrapheneOS).
Edit: apk can still be installed manually

@max-kazak , unable to install the app on unofficial Android systems should be fixed. Please try it out!
Support Android 10 or above; arm-v7 is not supported
