Compatibility
The functioning of the AirID® apps with your Android device cannot be guaranteed due to the heterogeneity of Android.
Minimum requirements for using the AirID® are the Bluetooth Low Energy functionality and an Android version from 4.4 upwards.
Furthermore, the utilized firmware version of the AirID® card reader has an impact on the stability of the Bluetooth connection. The best stability can be achieved by the latest beta release 1.2.0-18.
