Okay, so probably a lot of other people are having problems with this. So Dolphin isn't compatible with any Andriod version higher than 5.0. Why is this? I just really want Dolphin to run on my Android, and for other people. I myself have an Android version of 9.0 (Pie). If a developer reads this, I hope they fix it. Sad
Android is compatible with those versions of Dolphin. If Dolphin is incompatible with your device and you are using Android 6.0 or later, it must be because of some other reason, usually a lack of support for 64-bit code.

Okay, so is there any way I can fix this?
If your device doesn't support 64-bit code, then no, that is not something you can fix.
You could root your phone and install a custom rom that has 64-bit support. That's if one is available for it. What's your device?

Yup, thats 32-bit platform.


But how come Samsung release 2019 phone with 64bit capable hardware with 32 bit android system??? Thats simply crazy.

Google is phasing out 32 bit apps from android store. So what use is for 32 bit system, i just cannot understand.

No, they're phasing out apps that support 32-bit but not 64-bit. Apps can still support 32-bit if they also support 64-bit.

It keeps manufacturing costs down.  That's why you see some budget devices with 32-bit software despite having 64-bit hardware.
Wait, so why is it only 64-bit? Why can't Dolphin be 32-bit? I'm really curious.
