Android Support

I experimented with adding Android support but decided against building an Android app.  I understand that many people will benefit. It is simply too much work for a single developer like myself.

A small consolation: Cheap iOS devices

The original goal for GearView was - and still is: Support legacy iOS devices so you can use older iPads and iPhones. 

I personally use an iPad Air 3rd generation that I got for free. Devices of this vintage are easy to find for $50 and less.

What iOS versions you can use with GearView? 

GearView is written for iOS 15 and higher.  That's unusual for an app that was introduced in 2024. I wanted to support the oldest devices possible without giving up commonly used iOS capabilities.

Here are iOS devices you can use:  

• iPhone 6S, iPhone SE and all newer iPhones
• iPad Pro all models
• iPad Air 2, iPad 5th generation, iPad Mini 4 and all newer iPads
