Supercell has just dropped some new Clash of Clans news for the fans, and if you are someone running on a lower-end smartphone device, you better look away. Clash of Clans is set to end support for devices running below Android 5.0 or iOS 11 from their next update and will not be playable on devices using these operating systems from the next update. Along with this, Facebook login option is also going away.
Clash of Clans is increasing the minimum supported OS versions
In an article on their blog, Supercell confirmed that devices running below Android 5.0 or iOS 11 would no longer be able to download or launch the game. This is bad news for fans of the game with older smartphone devices, as Clash of Clans has always been a less intensive game. Supercell advised fans to update their smartphones to a higher version as soon as possible or to purchase a new device.
This means that players running CoC on an older Android/iPhone device still have some time to upgrade their phones
If you are looking to update your OS to Android 5.0 or iOS 11, it is best if you check out Apple’s or Google’s support websites.
Players looking for steps to link their account to a Supercell ID or transfer a village on a new device, then they are best served by checking out the frequently asked questions on the official website. Considering Supercell’s decision to end support on old devices, it might be safe to assume the next update will contain some significant changes.
Clash of Clans Facebook Login for will also be unavailable
Other than these OS support changes, Clash of Clans will also stop functioning with the Facebook login from the next update. So players who are suing Facebook login are suggested to connect their friends with Supercell ID to avoid any changes.
