Mobile OSs/Devices

Apart from where specifically mentioned below, applications built with MobileCaddy shall support OS and Versions in line with those supported by the Salesforce Mobile SDK project. As the Salesforce Mobile SDK project releases new versions, so the supported OSs and versions may change.

Note: When newer versions of OSs are released it may be necessary to release a newer version of device apps¹ to cater for these. In these scenarios the minimum version of supported OS may rise without prior warning. Mandatory updating of device apps (based upon Salesforce Mobile SDK upgrades) is not enforced, unless due to security reasons. Minimum supported versions may also rise if device apps are needed to re-built with newer versions of the Salesforce Mobile SDK.
