Microsoft just announced that it\u2019s dropping Microsoft Teams support for Android versions 5 through 7.<\/p>\n<p>This change shouldn\u2019t come as much of a surprise. After all, Google just launched Android 12, and the Android 7 OS came out nearly six years ago. But over 10% of Android users are still on these years-old releases, according to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/gs.statcounter.com\/android-version-market-share\/mobile-tablet\/worldwide\">StatCounter<\/a>. A decent number of people may be affected by this change.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Android 5<\/strong>: Retirement begins March 1st, 2022.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Android 6<\/strong>: Microsoft will stop updating Teams for Android 6 users on July 1st, 2022. That said, it will be available on the Play Store and continue to work for Android 6 users until September.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Android 7<\/strong>: Microsoft will stop updating Teams for Android 6 users on September 1st, 2022.

Old devices don\u2019t receive security updates or bug fixes, so they may be vulnerable to hacking attempts and other exploits. Using an old phone can save you money, but if you\u2019re concerned about security, you should probably upgrade to something running Android 11 or Android 12.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: Microsoft365 Admin Center via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/m365log.com\/teams\/retiring-teams-mobile-support-for-devices-running-on-android-5-6-and-7\/\">M365Log<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/millions-of-microsoft-teams-users-are-in-for-a-nasty-surprise\">TechRadar<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
