Samsung Pay is one of the functions of Samsung phones. Last year, the company merged Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass with the introduction of the Samsung Wallet app, and now plans to end support for its wallet app on some older phones.
Sammobile writes Galaxy phones running Android 9 or older will no longer support the Samsung Wallet app.
Samsung has started sending notifications to users of older phones to warn them about the end of support for its wallet app. This warning shows that the mentioned application will not work on phones that use Android 9 or older versions from March 15, 2024 (April 6, 1403).
The end of support for the Samsung Wallet app affects the Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8, and older Galaxy phones. The Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 series are not compatible with Android 10, while the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy Note 9 have received the Android 10 update as the latest operating system update.
Since it’s been about seven years now since Galaxy phones are incompatible with the Samsung Wallet app, many owners of these products have probably upgraded their devices to newer models, so Samsung’s move to end support on older phones won’t affect a large number of users. had
Samsung Pay allows users to add their credit and debit cards and make various payments through NFC and MST.
