How to fix “Your mobile device isn’t compatible with this version.” ?

While downloading an app from Google Play Store, you may have come across the error saying, “Your mobile device is not compatible with this version.” This seems to be the most irritating message, especially if you are downloading your favorite application. It happens when you try to download advanced apps such as Pokémon Go, Clash of the Clans, and Snapchat.

Incompatibility doesn’t necessarily mean that your device’s version is not up to the mark; sometimes, it happens due to some restrictions set by the application developer, such as regional restrictions, which means that the app is not accessible in your region to get access.

There could be multiple reasons for this message to appear again and again on your device; let’s have a look at the possible ones:

Old Android Version:
The first reason behind this notification is that you might have the older version of android on your device while downloading the application.

Hardware not supported:
It is another reason why your mobile is showing “Your device isn’t compatible with this version.” If the application specifications are not compatible with the RAM, ROM, processor, and chipset of your device, this message will frequently appear on your mobile screen.

Methods to resolve this issue:
To get rid of this issue, we have found some methods that will work. Let’s have a look at those methods.

Clear Caches
• Open the mobile settings.
• Go to the “application manager.”
• Click on “Google Play Services” and tap on “Force Stop.”
• After forcing it to stop, select “Clear cache.”
After you finish all of the above-mentioned steps, start your Play Store again, and hopefully, your issue will be resolved.

Uninstall updates
It is another method; in case the above solution doesn’t work in your case.
• Go to “Settings” on your android device.
• Select “Application Manager.”
• Tap on “Google Play Store.”
• Select “Uninstall Updates.”
This method will remove the latest updates of the Google Play Store.

Market Helper
Your Android Smartphone must be connected with the “SuperSU application” to fix this error.
• Install the APK files of “Market Helper.”
• Launch the application on your device.
• Allow app permission.
• Select the “Activate” Option.
• Now open the play store and download any application.

Root your device
You can consider this as the last efficient method to remove “Your device isn’t compatible with this version on your android.” You have to update your Android OS.
Old devices do not get the latest update. So, if you can afford then go and buy the newest device; otherwise, you can try rooting your device. Rooting your device means to launch custom ROMS and use the latest OS.
Don’t forget that it is a risky process as it can break your device permanently.

YALP app store
Sometimes, you get this notification “Your device isn’t compatible with this version” because the app you are trying to download is not accessible in your region. To encounter this issue, you can download an application called the YALP app store, which has the same functionalities as Google Play Store.
This app store helps you in downloading the APK file of your desired application. It then saves those APK files for future use.
Some other features of the YALP app store:
• Browsing Categories.
• Blacklisting of application.
• Filtration of apps.
