These apps will not work on older versions of Android.
Android is Google’s operating system and many people still use the old Android version, on which now some of these special apps of Google will stop working.
Earlier this year Google reported that there are around 3 billion Android device users worldwide, including smartphone and tablet users. These devices work on different Android operating systems. In this, some smartphones work on the old Android operating system Gingerbread.
According to Google, Android 2.3 version is now quite old because now the company has released the update of Android 11 and soon Android 12 will also knock. In such a situation, there is a risk of leaking the data of the users from the old version. In such a situation, users running phones with Android version 2.3 OS will not be able to use Google Maps, YouTube and Google Calendar.
What can users do next?
By going to the settings of the Android smartphone, users can check which operating system (OS) their phone is working on. For this, go to the settings of the smartphone and click on the About phone present there and you can check the Android version.
However, if there is an older version, users can also check the new update, whose option will also be available inside the phone itself. In such a situation, if you update your phone with Android 3 Honeycomb, then it will be able to use these apps of Google.
Decision was also taken with Windows Phones
Google has already stopped many services from Windows Phone in view of security. Google had said even then that data could be leaked here. Let us tell you that recently WhatsApp had issued a statement saying that the instant messaging app will also stop working in the old Android version.
