Google Wallet will no longer be accessible on select Samsung phones. Google announced that it is increasing the minimum OS requirement for the Wallet application. The revision is for Android and Wear OS, affecting many devices across OEMs.
According to the info, “Google Wallet will require Android 9 or higher on your phone and Wear OS 2.x or higher on your smartwatch” on June 10. This means Galaxy devices running Samsung’s previous Android skin (Experience UX) will no longer support Google Wallet.
Samsung had launched Galaxy phones with One UI software, starting with Android 9 OS. Galaxy phones that have ended their software at Android 8 won’t be able to run Google’s Wallet. The company said that it is increasing the requirement due to security concerns.
The documentation published by Google Wallet (via 9to5Google) says “security updates aren’t available for Android versions below 9.” Without security updates and support for tap-to-pay transactions, the digital payments platform won’t remain secure.
As of October 2023, the Android 9 operating system has a cumulative distribution of 86.4%. The remaining OS distribution percentage includes the latest Android versions as well as previous ones. Simply put, users on Android Nougat (2016: 7.0, 7.1) and Oreo (2017: 8.0, 8.1) are impacted.
