Thank you, but the iPhone 7 can't be updated to iOS 17, and the latest version available is 15.8.

We are aware of this issue on iOS devices < 17.0. We are preparing a new build with the fix from #2278. We'll update this bug once it is rolling out. Thanks for your patience and reporting the issues.

Any news about rolling out the bug fix on App Store anytime soon? It's been about 2 week since the last update.

Some of my clients using iOS < 17 got broken clients after app store automatically updated their Outline app, and unable to downgrade. Forcing them to use another application unless they can upgrade their iOS.

Although I understand this is open-source app by Google Lab, it's pretty disappointing to see that it's slipping obvious UI bugs to production application that literally has "one dialog box and one button".

Is there anyway other party can test Outline app on their devices like TestFlight for iOS? If so, please do release beta versions to public before just going straight to production.

This application is the greatest thing ever done by Google since it doesn't include any ads or bloats and stay independent of the business side, making it non-profit freeware, and I love it.

So, I want to kindly request the Outline dev team to "not break" or "drop support" for older versions of OSes, since many people are relying on this application to bypass their country's censorship firewall.

And many of those countries are not "rich" in anyway (actually poorest in the world) that people can't always afford relatively new mobile phone with latest operating system.

I'm from Myanmar (Burma) which our country is facing most harsh censorship after China. (The military is using China's aid to block the internet which is affecting to both essential and non-essential services. One of the obvious block is CloudFront, and we cannot enter any websites that are using AWS's CloudFront)
