:warning: latest amino bugs & features

Greetings Potterheads !

───────────────

Team Amino has released a statement regarding the latest issues on amino, and why they are happening.

This blog is a copied and pasted version of the original. The original sources are listed below, unformatted. It is advisable to read the blog from start to finish.

Some of you may already know that, but this year we've been trying to fight bots and spammers on Amino.

I suppose most of you when all communities had to close themselves because of the huge influx of bots in 2020/21. That was actually the beginning of the issues on Amino. These bots would harass s, post hateful content, mine coins, compromise the integrity of Amino servers, and disrupt the experiences of s across the app.

In our quest to end the bots, many legitimate, good s were caught in the crossfire. We'd like to first and foremost, apologize to those s.

As of the latest development, some people have not been able to . One of the following might explain why:

             ⊙ Third party apps are not ed anymore

              (they have never been officially, and ultimately

              only hurt Amino and its s). You can probably

              still check information on them, but not post,

              message, or take any actions. Make sure to

              your app from the official stores,

              Google Play Store for Android, and Apple's App

              Store for iOS.

             ⊙ Rooted, jailbroken or otherwise modified

              devices won't work either. Our latest security

              measures prevent people from taking actions

              from such devices.

             ⊙ Older devices, emulators, and some

              Chinese-made devices (like Huawei, Xiaomi,

              others) might not be able to the safety

              checks needed to access the platform. For

              Android devices, they must Google Play's

              integrity checks to connect to Amino servers,c

              which unfortunately isn't possible on devices

              that don't Google Play services.

That being said, if you're having problems in or taking actions within the app, I advise you to update your Android/iOS versions to the latest possible, along with any firmware used by your phone. If the problems persist, clear Amino's cache and files on your phone, reinstall Amino and try again.

If none of the above applies to you, and you're still having problems, please the team.

We plan on officially dropping for older phones and operating systems, as every other piece of software eventually does. So, if at all possible, try to use Amino on newer devices.

As always, thank you for your patience.

Jinx
