+  * some new feature in the latest Locus Map runs slowly (or not at all) on my phone - I'd like to downgrade
 ===== Answer =====
+The reason for this incompatibility is the permanent development of Locus application and the Android itself as well. Some functions simply cannot be developed for older Android devices.
-Beginning with 2.14.0. version Locus Map is not compatible with Android 2.1 and older. Similarly, from the version 3.6.0. Locus Map does not support Androids 2.2.x and 2.3.x. Etc. Etc. The reason for this incompatibility is permanent development of Locus application and the Android itself as well. Some functions simply cannot be developed for older Android devices.
+The solution is to **install the latest Locus Map version that supports your version of Android**.
-Some of our users have devices with older Androids, they paid for Locus Pro and they want to continue using the application. Or, they want to use our app and stay with their old Android version. The solution is to **install one of the latest Locus Map versions that supports their version of  Android**.
-The only disadvantage of this solution is **impossibility of upgrading to a higher Locus version**.
