If eBay put the minimum operating system requirements in their pop-up message for the app upgrade, it would save a lot of people a lot of time.

Having the same issue with iPhone , I have iOS 16.7 and it needs iOS 17 , surely it’s a mistake , they wouldn’t just fire an update out there with no prior notice cutting off many many users from the app ! 

Yes i have the same problem. 

Im operating a samsung edge 7 but have been told i need  a 10 or above.

Haha, so I need a new device to run the app, where should I look? Maybe eBay, ah not a chance, as I can’t use the bloody app. Nice catch 22 position eBay. How bizarre of a decision not to allow an older version to be used and screw yourself! Yes, the web app does work, however the functionality as a seller too is poor. At least allow the older version to function.

I don’t know if this has already been suggested: if you’re using Android and Chrome, you can add the web version of eBay as an ‘app’

• at the top of the browser, click the three dots
• click “add to Home Screen” - you get a dialog “install app”, but don’t worry, this won’t be the Play Store app
• you’ll now have an ‘eBay’ icon on your screen

it’s just a shortcut, but it really doesn’t feel that different to the app. Might even be a bit faster on my old phone 😀. Oh and if you have JavaScript disabled or need to set any other permissions, just press and hold the icon, and select ‘site settings’.

saves my from buying a new phone for a few more months …
