greenID Mobile OS Support Policy

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The mobile SDK has been deprecated and no longer offered as an integration option in greenID. For alternative options, please contact your GBG account representative.

GBG follows the same support policies as Apple and Google, providing support for iOS versions released up to 2 to 3 years ago and Android versions released roughly 3 years ago. The Mobile OS Support Schedule lists estimated end-dates for supported versions. 

Visit Requirements for a statement on the platforms supported at a given date.

 All devices that can run iOS 13.x and iOS 14.x, can also run iOS 15.x, so Apple does not maintain iOS 13 and iOS 14 anymore.

†† As of 15 June 2021, GBG's policy for supported Android versions increased from 3 years to 4 years, provided Google also supports that version.  As of 15 October 2021, Google still maintains Android 8.1.x.

Support Standards

Please see the "Mobile OS Support Schedule" above for specific dates.

iOS Devices and OS Version Support

  • greenID mobile will only support iPhone devices supported by Apple after the release announcement of new device(s) and/or iOS versions. 

  • greenID mobile will only support the last 3 major iOS versions released by Apple (this generally provides up to 2 years of support)

  • In all instances, if Apple or Google no longer supports a version of an operating system, then neither will greenID mobile.

Xcode Version Support 

  • greenID mobile will only be supported when using the latest non-beta version of Xcode to compile an application.
