Nintex Mobile Apps - Release Notes

[#1]

Important information

• Nintex Mobile for Android requires the Chrome browser installed.
• Android devices must include support for Google Services. Nintex Mobile on Android devices will not work without Google Services installed.
• Effective 13 September 2019 (the “End of Support Date”), Nintex will officially stop supporting Nintex Mobile deployed on Windows Tablet and Windows Phone. Nintex functionality that relies solely on a specific underlying operating system operated by a third party reflects the lifecycle of that underlying OS. Accordingly, as this Nintex Mobile functionality targets the Windows 8 platform that is currently in the end of its Microsoft lifecycle. Between the date of this notice and the End of Support Date, only applicable critical patches will be implemented.
  For additional detail, see Windows Tablet and Windows Phone End-of-Support Notice.
