Attached: 1 image Some personal news: This is my last day at Android Authority, and it also marks the end of my time posting Android news! I've spent the past 10 years writing about Android, and I've enjoyed every moment of it. What began as a hobby in college — tinkering with custom ROMs and modding my phone — turned into a long career, one totally disconnected from my degree in Biomedical Engineering.

    I guess that’s the only option until those apps require a higher Android version than is available on the old phone. 😬

      I am on Android 16, the A73 might even get Android 17. Even if it doesn’t get 17, I think government/banking apps on Android 16 will be usable for another 3 years minimum.

      Who knows, by that time Europe might be forced to dump Android/iOS (as opposed to “wanting” to do it).
