Compatibility of past Android versions

Hi


I recently saw that Dolphin Emulator is compatible with android and is on the Google Play Store. However my android device is not compatible with all the latest versions of Dolphin and when trying to install the app using the apk from the website it fails to do so. Therefore I decided to try installing an older version and managed to get the app to install with version 4.0-5981. However whenever I try to launch a game from my SD-card on this version it says "Unfortinately, Dolphin Emulator has stopped" and returns me to the game selection screen. The phone I'm using is an Xperia Z2 running android 6.0.1.

If anyone could help my understand why its not working and possibly find a compatible version that would be great!

Since you have a 32-bit phone, you would have to either use a very old version of Dolphin or use an older version of Android – I don't remember which. Either way, if you do get it to run, it'll run way too slow, so there's not much point in trying. You need a more powerful phone if you want to run Dolphin.
